The lived experiences of healthcare professionals working in pre-hospital emergency services in Jordan: A qualitative exploratory study.

Introduction: Globally, injuries account for 9% of all deaths, with road accidents contributing to approximately a quarter of these fatalities. A major concern is the inadequacy of pre-hospital care (emergency medical services provided before arrival at a hospital) and delays in transportation to medical facilities, identified as leading causes of preventable injury-related deaths. This study explores the experiences of emergency health professionals (EHPs) in peri-hospital services (emergency medical services provided immediately upon arrival and within the hospital setting).

Experience of Health Professionals in Caring for Patients With Chest Trauma: A Qualitative Study.

Background: The variation in the implementation of chest trauma (CT) management's guidelines led to inconsistent and mixed experiences toward CT management by the health care team. Moreover, there is a scarcity of studies exploring factors that enhance CT management experiences worldwide and in Jordan.

Objectives: The aims of this study were (1) to explore emergency health professionals' attitudes and experiences toward CT management and (2) to understand factors that affect the care for patients with CTs among emergency health professionals.
