Sažetak

A well-organized network for primary percutaneous coronary intervention (pPCI) is of paramount importance in providing optimal healthcare for patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS). Organizing a pPCI network is a lengthy and logistically complex task. The purpose of gathering, analyzing, and sharing data on the functioning of the network is to improve the system. Monitoring everyday work and gathering, analyzing, and sharing data are the key elements of continuous improvement. This article describes the efforts to develop a quality monitoring program for the treatment of patients with ACS in western Slavonia – a region in Croatia. We also explain the diagnostic, treatment, and destination protocols used and the types of data we will monitor as indicators of quality and comprehensiveness of care for patients with ACS.
