Heart Attack Care
An acute myocardial infarction (AMI) or heart attack happens when one of the heart's arteries becomes blocked and the supply of blood and oxygen to part of the heart muscle is slowed or stopped. When the heart muscle doesn't get the oxygen and nutrients it needs, the affected heart tissue may die. These measures assess the extent to which some of the recommended treatments are provided, if appropriate, for most adults who have had a heart attack.

Stroke Care
A stroke, sometimes called a "brain attack," occurs when blood flow to the brain is interrupted. When a stroke occurs, brain cells in the immediate area begin to die because they stop getting the oxygen and nutrients they need to function. There are 2 major kinds of stroke:
- An ischemic stroke is caused by fatty build-up or a blood clot that blocks or plugs a blood vessel or artery in the brain.
- A hemorrhagic stroke is caused by a blood vessel in the brain that breaks and bleeds into the brain.
Strokes can cause a loss of the ability to speak, memory problems, or paralysis on one side of the body. Getting the right care at the right time can help reduce the risk of complications. These measures show some of the standards of stroke care that hospitals should follow.

Blood Clot Prevention & Treatment
Because hospital patients often have to stay in bed for long periods of time, any patient who is admitted to the hospital is at risk of developing a blood clot in the veins. Blood clots can break off and travel to other parts of the body and cause serious problems. Fortunately, there are safe, effective, and proven procedures to prevent blood clots or to treat them when they occur. The measures listed below show how well hospitals are providing recommended care known to prevent or treat blood clots, as well as how often blood clots. How this page works >>

Pregnancy & Delivery Care
By adhering to best practices for maternity care, hospitals can improve the chances for a safe delivery and a healthy baby. This measure shows the percentage of pregnant women who had elective deliveries 1-3 weeks early (either vaginally or by C-section) whose early deliveries weren't medically necessary. Higher numbers may indicate that hospitals aren’t doing enough to discourage this unsafe practice. How this page works >>
