Objectives: This project aimed to create and implement a safe and efficient role-based process to rapidly extricate traumatically injured persons transported to the emergency department via police transport or private vehicle.
Methods: A simulation exercise was conducted with an interdisciplinary team of ED personnel, Philadelphia Police Department, and University of Pennsylvania police officers to identify the necessary steps to rapidly extricate traumatically injured individuals.
Results: The simulation exercise identified several new processes needed to complete rapid extrications of traumatically injured individuals from private and police vehicles.
