The diagnosis and management of ACS (Acute Coronary Syndrome) in the YKDHR Emergency Department has several peculiarities owing being 400 miles from the next highest level of care (Anchorage) and having limited inpatient capabilities for cardiac patients.


Inpatient Cardiac Services

Transfers

Beneficiaries

Urgent PCI required (typically for STEMI)
Beneficiaries requiring URGENT PCI are transferred to either Alaska Regional Hospital or Providence Alaska Medical Center.
NOT requiring Urgent PCI
Beneficiaries requiring a higher level of care but who will wait one or two days until angiography/PCI are transferred to ANMC (Alaska Native Medical Center).

Non-beneficiaries

All non-beneficiaries who require a higher level of care must be transferred to either Alaska Regional Hospital or Providence Alaska Medical Center.
