Safety and adverse events during primary care paramedic interfacility transfer of stable STEMI patients

CONCLUSIONS: We found PCP-interfacility transport of initially stable STEMI patients was safe and associated with a moderate proportion of adverse events, the majority of which did not require an advanced care intervention. These findings may help decision-making to avoid delays transferring stable patients to PCI-capable centers.PMID:38619868 | DOI:10.1080/10903127.2024.2342569
