This study aims to examine the operation of Shenzhen 120 EMS center and to identify the reasons of calling EMS.BACKGROUND:In this retrospective quantitative descriptive study, the data from the Shenzhen 120 EMS registry in 2011 were analyzed.RESULTS:Shenzhen 120 EMS center is a communication command center. When the number of 120 are dialed, it is forwarded to the closest appropriate hospital for ambulance dispatch. In 2011, the Shenzhen 120 EMS center received 153 160 ambulance calls, with an average of 420 calls per day. Calling emergency services was mainly due to traffic accidents. Trauma and other acute diseases constituted a majority of ambulance transports. The adult patients aged 15-60 years are the principal users of EMS. There are no recognized 'paramedic' doctors and nurses. The pre-hospital emergency service is under the operation of emergency departments of hospitals. Shenzhen at present does not have specialized pre-hospital training for doctors and nurses in posttrauma management. Moreover, specialized pre-hospital training, financial support, and public health education on proper use of EMS should be emphasized.CONCLUSION:The Shenzhen 120 EMS center has its own epidemiology characteristics. Traumatic injury and traffic accident are the main reasons for calling ambulance service. In-depth study emphasizing the distribution and characteristics of trauma patients is crucial to the future development of EMS.展开更多
目的了解我国军、地医院创伤院前救护能力现状及延时现场救护(prolonged field care,PFC)认知及能力准备情况,为相关培训提供参考。方法2021年2月—6月,采用分层抽样和便利抽样相结合的方法,选取东北、西南、中部、东南以及珠三角地区24...目的了解我国军、地医院创伤院前救护能力现状及延时现场救护(prolonged field care,PFC)认知及能力准备情况,为相关培训提供参考。方法2021年2月—6月,采用分层抽样和便利抽样相结合的方法,选取东北、西南、中部、东南以及珠三角地区242名军队及地方医护人员,采用自行设计的《中国创伤院前急救及延时现场救护(PFC)认知情况调查问卷》,借助于问卷星平台进行多中心横断面调查。结果(1)部队三甲医院年均院前救护任务显著多于地方二甲医院(P<0.05),道路交通伤在所有伤型中占比最高;(2)“途中持续监护和复苏预案”是制定最多的院前救护预案,“转运时间过长”是反映最多的问题;(3)PFC知晓率仅为35.1%;(4)“现场处理能力”和“复杂伤情评估”被分别认为是军、地医院创伤院前急救培训中最急需和最缺少的能力。结论当前我国军、地医院救护人员对创伤院前急救措施的掌握情况不容乐观,对各类预案了解不足,PFC概念知晓度普遍较低,缺乏复杂伤情评估和决策能力,亟待完善培训策略,提升整体创伤院前救护能力。展开更多
