NCT ID NCT07144059

First seen Dec 31, 2025 · Last updated May 12, 2026 · Updated 22 times

Summary

This study looks at whether having non-medical teams (like firefighters or paramedics) perform an ECG on people with heart attack symptoms leads to faster hospital care compared to when a doctor-led team does the ECG. Researchers will review records of 350 adults who called emergency services for a heart attack between 2023 and 2024. The goal is to see if using non-medical teams can shorten the time to get patients to the right hospital unit, without giving any new treatment.
