There is a lack of ethical triage and treatment guidelines for the entrapped mangled extremity (E&ME) in resource-scarce environments (RSE): mass casualty incidents, low- to middle-income countries, complex humanitarian emergencies including conflict, prolonged transport times (RSE). The aim this study use modified Delphi (mD) approach produce statements develop E&ME RSE. Experts rated their agreement with each statement on 7-point linear numeric scale. Consensus amongst experts was defined...
Increased surge capacity is key in mass casualty incidents. Rural hospitals face other challenges terms of transport and available resources. The aim was to examine if a simulation system previously used test at large hospitals, could be small rural hospital. A qualitative study conducted assess hospital using validated system. adopted the Norwegian trauma local context. New simulated patient cards were developed, inspired by traffic victims. tunnel accident scenario involving bus, heavy...
Defined goals for hospitals' ability to handle mass-casualty incidents (MCI) are a prerequisite optimal planning as well training, and also base quality assurance improvement. This requires methods test individual hospitals in sufficient detail numerically determine surge capacity different components of the hospitals. Few such have so far been available. The aim present study was with use simulation model proven validated training capacity-limiting factors number hospitals, identify how...
Mass-casualty incidents, MCI, pose a constant threat on societies all over the world. It is essential that hospital organizations systematically prepare for such situations. A method repeated follow-up and evaluation of disaster planning much needed.To evaluate Swedish hospitals´ preparedness with focus MCI through web-based survey to highlight areas in need improvement ensure better resilience.An online was sent emergency hospitals (n = 87, 49 hospitals). One respondent per answered...
To evaluate the midterm outcomes and potential risk factors associated with fascia suture technique (FST) for closure of femoral artery access sites after percutaneous endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR).Between April 2007 2008, 100 consecutive EVAR cases were evaluated retrospectively. A third procedures emergent (16 ruptured aneurysms). Of 187 sites, 160 (85.5%) closed by FST as a first choice. Pre- postoperative chart imaging data collected from computerized medical records analysis...
Mass casualty incidents (MCI) pose significant challenges to existing resources, entailing multiagency collaboration. Triage is a critical component in the management of MCIs, but lack universally accepted triage system can hinder collaboration and lead preventable loss life. This multinational study uses validated patient cards (cases) based on real MCIs evaluate feasibility effectiveness novel Translational Tool (TTT) primary assessment mass victims. Using established systems versus TTT,...
To investigate prehospital preparedness work for Mass Casualty Incidents (MCI) and Major (MI) in Norway.
The use of tourniquet (TQ) is today a well-documented and lifesaving adjunct to control bleeding from extremity trauma in the military setting. Since August 2015, ambulance services Stockholm, Sweden are equipped with TQs. implementation potential complications related TQ have so far not been evaluated. primary aim this study was evaluate prehospital for haemorrhage trauma. Possible following were analysed.A retrospective, descriptive cohort all patients (n = 56) documented admitted centre...
The European Union Horizon 2020 research and innovation funding program awarded the NIGHTINGALE grant to develop a toolkit support first responders engaged in prehospital (PH) mass casualty incident (MCI) response. To reach projects' objectives, consortium used Translational Science (TS) process. present work is TS stage (T1) aimed extract data relevant for subsequent modified Delphi study (T2) statements.The authors were divided into three groups (WGs) MCI Triage, PH Life Support Damage...
Abstract Introduction: Major incidents (MIs) put great demands on the medical response to effectively organize and redistribute resources personnel, in prehospital care as well hospital care, coordinating functions. Studies indicate that regular training well-established contingency plans are vital for MIs. Previous assessments have concluded Swedish disaster preparedness requires improved organization coordination. There is currently no method easily follow-up work of organizations MIs...
On January 25, 2018 a 5-car train derailed in Pioltello, 10 kilometers North-East of Milano City. A standardized post-hoc form was distributed to the hospitals involved management victims and allowed for an evaluation response incident.The incident by EMS (Emergency Medical System) effective terms organization scene distribution patients, although time first severe patient reach closest appropriate hospital very long (2 hours). This can be partially explained extrication time.None alerted...
