A STEMI does not wait while somebody works out who is covering interventional tonight. MatchMD resolves the team from your live on-call schedule and alerts every member at once — then documents exactly who was notified, and when.
The problem
Interventional cardiologist, cath lab nurse, radiology technologist, anaesthesia. A house supervisor works down a list, dialling each in turn, waiting to see who answers.
The list on the wall is last month’s. Somebody swapped on Friday. The call goes to a cardiologist who is not on tonight, and the clock keeps running.
Asked later how long it took to assemble the team, the answer is reconstructed from memory and a call log — if anyone kept one.
How it works
The house supervisor, ED charge nurse or physician triggers the cath lab team — a single action, not a sequence of calls.
MatchMD reads the live on-call schedule and works out who is covering each role right now. Nobody has to know the roster.
Every member is alerted simultaneously, on their own device, with a tone that cuts through. Replies come back to one thread the whole team can see.
In production
At one client hospital, the cath lab team has been activated 76 times through MatchMD, and remains in active use today. Cath lab and trauma are the two code teams carrying that hospital’s emergency response.
Documentation
Every activation carries a timestamped record of who was alerted, when it was delivered, when it was read and who replied. That is the response-time trail your quality reporting already asks for — produced automatically, rather than reconstructed after the fact.
