1 AMI 2011 Acute Myocardial Infarction

2 ASPIRIN AT ARRIVAL: A higher number is better. This measure shows the percentage of heart attack patients who receive aspirin within 24 hrs of arrival at hospital. Aspirin is a drug that can help reduce the severity of the heart attack and improve survival rates by lowering the tendency of blood to clot in the vessels. AMI1 - Aspirin at arrival State, 99% Natl, 98% % 2 0 Cases 0Cases 7 N=13 AMI1 - Aspirin at arrival ASPIRIN PRESCRIBED AT DISCHARGE: A higher number is better. This measure shows how often aspirin was prescribed to heart attack patients at the time they are discharged from the hospital. Aspirin is a drug that can help improve survival rates by lowering the tendency of blood to clot in the vessels. 4 2 AMI2 - Aspirin prescribed at discharge 0 Cases 0Cases 9 7 State, 98% Natl, 98% AMI2 - Aspirin prescribed at discharge 1_AMI

3 ACE INHIBITOR, or ARB PRESCRIBED FOR LVSD (left ventricular systolic dysfunction): A higher number is better. ACE (angiotensin converting enzyme) inhibitors and ARBs(angiotensin receptor blockers) are medicines used in Heart attack, high blood pressure and heart failure. They are also frequently used for a condition called systolic dysfunction, which is A decrease in the function of the left side of the heart. This measure shows the percentage of heart attack patients prescribed these drugs at discharge from hospital. Heart attack patients are prescribed this medicine to help improve the pumping of the heart. Patients who have had heart attacks can have better results if they take this medicine 4 2 AMI3 - ACEI or ARB for LVSD 0 Cases 0 Cases 0Cases 9 State, 96% Natl, 96% 7 AMI3 - ACEI or ARB for LVSD AMI3 - ACEI or ARB for LVSD BETA BLOCKER PRESCRIBED AT DISCHARGE: A higher score is better.

Heart failure is a chronic condition that can result in different symptoms such as shortness of breath, dizziness and water weight gain. Before discharge, the staff at the hospital should provide education materials to help manage these potential symptoms. HF1-All Discharge Instructions 2011 YTD, 88% State, 9 Natl, 87% n=25 0 Cases 2. Core HF1 - All Discharge Instructions LEFT VENTRICULAR FUNCTION (LVF) ASSESSMENT: A higher score is better. What does this mean: The percentage of patients given an LVF assessment. The proper treatment for heart failure must account for what area of your heart is affected. With heart failure, the pumping mechanism is affected and an important test to assess the pumping ability of your heart is the left ventricular function assessment. The results of this test will tell your provider how well your heart is pumping. HF2- Evaluation of LVS Function 94% State, 98% Natl, 98% Cases 4 2 Core HF2 - Evaluation of LVS Function 1_HF

6 ACE INHIBITOR, or ARB PRESCRIBED FOR LVSD (left ventricular systolic dysfunction): A higher number is better. ACE (angiotensin converting enzyme) inhibitors and ARBs(angiotensin receptor blockers) are medicines used in Heart attack, high blood pressure and heart failure. They are also frequently used for a condition called systolic dysfuntion, which is a decrease in the function of the left side of the heart. This measure shows the percentage of heart attack patients prescribed these drugs at discharge from hospital. Heart attack patients are prescribed this medicine to help improve the pumping of the heart. Patients who have had heart attacks can have better results if they take this medicine HF3-ACEI or ARB for LVSD 87% State, 95% Natl, 94% Cases 0 Cases 0 Cases 4 2 Core HF3 - ACEI or ARB for LVSD 2_HF
