Article Synopsis
- In South Africa, injuries caused 4,483 deaths in children aged 0-4 in 2016, with poor pre-hospital care identified as a major factor in their mortality.
- A study surveyed Free State Emergency Medical Care (EMC) personnel and found that over 51% lacked adequate knowledge in pediatric emergency care, including critical skills like calculating blood pressure.
- To improve outcomes, the study suggests implementing training programs and providing necessary equipment to enhance the competency of EMC personnel in handling pediatric emergency cases.
