Mount Sinai Health System is using a first-of-its-kind mobile application to expedite and enhance care for patients with heart attacks. The app, developed by Mount Sinai’s interventional cardiologists, Emergency Department physicians, and nursing team, improves communication among doctors, nurses, and the clinical command center so that patients can get more rapid care to improve outcomes.
Annapoorna Kini, MD, Director of the Cardiac Catheterization Lab at The Mount Sinai Hospital, is behind this initiative. She designed the application and worked with an app developer to help realize the need for and launch STEMIcathAID.
