WINNIPEG (CTVNews) – Winnipeg’s paramedics are now trained in a specialized therapy that could save responders valuable time when assessing heart attack patients.
It’s called the STEMI protocol, and it was first introduced to the city in 2008. At that time, not every paramedic was trained to trigger it, but now all 533 paramedics on staff have the ability to do so, shaving off minutes that could save lives.
