Timely and safe distribution of quality blood products is a major challenge faced by banks around the world. Our primary objective was to determine if simulated product delivery an urban trauma center would be more rapidly achieved unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) than ground transportation. A secondary feasibility maintaining temperatures within targeted range.In this prospective pilot study, we used two distinct methods compare UAV flight duration transport times. Simulated included packed...
Shockable rythms are common among victims of witnessed public out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA), but bystander defibrillation with a automated external defibrillator (PAED) is rare. Instructions from the emergency medical dispatcher and mobile applications were developed to expedite localization PAEDs, their effectiveness has not been compared.Participants enrolled in three-armed randomized simulation where they simulated OHCA on university campus, instructed locate PAED provide...
Abstract Introduction Rapid access to defibrillation is a key element in the management of out-of-hospital cardiac arrests (OHCAs). Public automated external defibrillators (PAEDs) are becoming increasingly available, but little information exists regarding relation between proximity arrest and their usage urban areas. Methods This study retrospective, observational, cross-sectional analysis non-traumatic OHCA during 24-month period greater Montreal area (Quebec, Canada). Using logistic...
Background: This preliminary report describes our experience using unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) to identify swimmers in distress at the 2018 Mont-Tremblant IRONMAN triathlon (Quebec, Canada). Methods: In a prospective pilot study, we sought determine whether UAV surveillance could showing signs of quicker than conventional methods (i.e., lifeguards on ground and watercraft). addition, investigated feasibility UAVs for medical event terms operations, costs, safety, legal parameters, added...
Background. The prehospital electrocardiogram (ECG) allows earlier identification of acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). Its utility for detection other cardiac events, as well transient abnormalities no longer present when the first hospital ECG is performed, not characterized. Objective. We sought to examine whether adds supplemental information obtained in hospital, by comparing data on possible ischemia and arrhythmias provided two ECGs, ambulance patients later...
Background . There is no foolproof strategy to identify a pulmonary embolism (PE) in the emergency department, and atypical presentations are common. Negative test results may mislead physicians away from diagnosis of PE. Objectives The current report aims raise awareness an unusual presentation massive PE its management, face limited evidence scientific literature. Case Reports We case patient with negative D-Dimer Computed Tomography contrast angiography chest who was diagnosed...
BackgroundPublic automated external defibrillator (AED) registries aim to increase layperson defibrillation for victims of out-of-hospital cardiac arrest. This study aims characterize Canadian AED and the process by which these databases are updated used.MethodsA survey was administered representatives from each eligible registry. Collected data included information on registry management, validation process, linkage emergency medical dispatch (EMD), number AEDs per Three unregistered in...
In recent years, unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) have been increasingly used for medical surveillance purposes in mass-gathering events. No studies investigated the reliability of live video transmission from UAVs accurate identification distressed race participants need attention. The aim this study was to determine proportion time during which UAV feed successfully transmitted and considered sufficient quality identify acute illness runners participating 2022 Montreal Marathon...
Introduction: In recent years, unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) have been increasingly used for medical surveillance purposes in mass gathering events. No studies investigated the reliability of live video transmission from UAVs accurate identification distressed race participants need attention. During 2022 Montreal marathon, aim this study was to determine proportion data collection time during which UAV feed successfully transmitted and considered sufficient quality identify acute illness....
