Can Firefighters' ECGs speed up heart attack care?
NCT ID NCT07144059
First seen Dec 31, 2025 · Last updated Jun 23, 2026 · Updated 28 times
Summary
This study looks at whether having non-medical teams (like firefighters or ambulance crews) do an ECG for suspected heart attacks delays care compared to doctor-staffed teams. 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 the type of team affects how quickly patients get to the hospital for treatment.
