Abstract Objectives To describe the characteristics and outcomes of cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR)‐induced consciousness patients from a large database out‐of‐hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA). Methods Included were adult patients, attended between January 2007 December 2018 by Queensland Ambulance Service, where was attempted paramedics. Manual review records undertaken to identify CPR‐induced cases. Patients exhibiting purposeful limb/body movement during CPR, with or without displaying...
Police and paramedics play a crucial role in responding to suicide crises the community. However, little is known about nature, extent, precipitating factors, pathways outcomes of suicide-related call emergency services what responses will most effectively compassionately meet needs those crisis. Partners Prevention: Understanding Enhancing First Responses Suicide Crisis Situations (PiP) was established address these knowledge gaps.This article describes (1) methodology used construct PiP...
Summary Biological introductions of species to regions outside their known natural distribution are considered a major threat native marine biodiversity and key consideration for ecological management. For most invasive in systems, however, little is about potential impacts. If we increase our knowledge the processes mechanisms behind spread nonindigenous or determine economic impacts, manipulative field experiments best way unambiguously ascribe causal relationships. studies invasions, such...
Background: Exacerbations of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) are acute complications that often require emergency management by ambulance, department (ED) and hospital services. Given the high mortality morbidity exacerbations, better understanding epidemiology patients with COPD presenting to EDs is needed, as well identification predictive factors for adverse outcomes from exacerbations. Methods: This retrospective observational study involved who presented an ED in state...
Objectives: The aim of this work is to describe routine integration prehospital emergency health records into a master linkage file, delivering ongoing access integrated patient treatment and outcome information for ambulance-attended patients in Queensland.Methods: Queensland Ambulance Service (QAS) data are monthly the Health Master Linkage File (MLF) using algorithm that relies on probabilistic matches combination with deterministic rules based demographic details, date, time facility...
