Impact of ambulance crew configuration on simulated cardiac arrest resuscitation.
Prehosp Emerg Care
October 2008
Background: Despite the widespread use of both two paramedic and single paramedic ambulance crews, there is little evidence regarding differences between these two staffing configurations in the delivery of patient care.
Objectives: To determine potential differences in care provided by each of these ambulance configurations in the resuscitation of a cardiac arrest victim in ventricular fibrillation.
Methods: Fifteen paramedic-paramedic and 15 paramedic-EMT crews were recruited to perform resuscitation on a high-fidelity human simulator (Laerdal SimMan).
