Objectives: Prehospital endotracheal intubation (ETI) is a lifesaving procedure with known complications. To reduce ETI-associated morbidity and mortality, organizations prioritize first-pass success (FPS). However, there are few data evaluating the association of FPS with clinician licensure.

Prehospital emergency care is the primary stage in the treatment of critically ill patients, where efficient and accurate monitoring methods are crucial for patient survival and prognosis. End-tidal carbon dioxide (EtCO) monitoring is a real-time, non-invasive method that can sensitively capture the status of respiratory, circulatory, and metabolic functions, particularly in the urgent and complex pre-hospital environment, a immediate detection and non-invasive method, can sensitively capture the respiratory, circulatory, and metabolic status of patients. It provides valuable guidance for rapid decision-making and precise interventions.

Article Synopsis
  • Traumatic out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (TOHCA) is a significant public health issue in Thailand, heavily influenced by high accident rates and inconsistent prehospital care.
  • A study analyzed data from the Emergency Medicine System over 11 years, finding that of 35,724 TOHCA patients, about 18.5% survived to hospital admission, with key factors influencing survival including stopping bleeding, intubation, and defibrillation.
  • The research suggests that improving prehospital management—such as fluid administration and timely intervention—can enhance survival rates for TOHCA victims.

Conventional versus task-based package organization for out-of-hospital emergency kits: an emergency medical services simulation study.

Background: Emergency Medical Service crews are equipped with comprehensive emergency kits for routine care and to provide life-saving interventions in severely ill patients. While guidelines on contents and packing strategies of emergency kits for specific tasks and specialized situations exist, data for the design of out-of-hospital emergency kits in a general urban population is lacking. It may be possible to transfer the promising results of modern in-hospital packing strategies such as task-based package organization (TPO) to an Emergency Medical Service setting.
