The Emergency Performance of the Hungarian Ambulance Service during the COVID-19 Pandemic.

The COVID-19 pandemic had a considerable impact on the whole health sector, particularly on emergency services. Our aim was to examine the performance of the Hungarian National Ambulance Service during the first four waves of the pandemic. We defined the 2019 performance of the service as the baseline and compared it with the activity during the pandemic years of 2020 and 2021.

Investigating the Geographic Disparities of Amenable Mortality and Related Ambulance Services in Hungary.

The aim of this study was to investigate how amenable mortality and related ambulance services differ on a county level in Hungary. The differences in mortality rates and ambulance services could identify counties where stronger ambulance services are needed. The datasets for 2018 consisted of county level aggregated data of citizens between the ages 15-64.
