| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Severe and critical patients were transported to Emergency and Critical Care Centers by ambulance cars and also treated on scene by ambulance car or helicopter staffed with physicians. However, in most emergency cases, it is difficult to select whether transporting to the emergency centers directly or starting the urgent treatment on scene by physicians on ambulance car or helicopter. In this study, 9011 cases occurred for two years in northern part of Osaka prefecture in Japan were evaluated by using geographical analysis. As a result, there were the potential for another strategy of treatment for many cases which might be able to start earlier. These results contribute to select more appropriate strategy in prehospital setting for emergency life-saving technicians (ELTs)
