1. Measure-specific reasons for exclusion (2010-Q4–2013-Q3).
Measure-specific reasons for exclusion (2010-Q4–2013-Q3). Flow diagram demonstrating specific reasons for exclusion from arrival measures. Data are reported from 2010-Q4 to 2013-Q3 to allow comparability between measures (due to change in AMI-1 measure specification and addition of AMI-10 that occurred in 2010-Q4). ACEi, ACE inhibitor; AMA, against medical advice; AMI, acute myocardial infarction; ARB, angiotensin receptor blocker; LBBB, left bundle branch block; LDL, low-density lipoprotein; LVSD, left ventricular systolic dysfunction; PCI, percutaneous coronary intervention; STEMI, ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction.
