Emergency Medical Services Outcomes Evaluation

The provision of pre-hospital (EMS) care has come under increased scrutiny recently. Many have questioned the value of the range of EMS services provided. There is concern about the lack of proof of effective. related to EMS care. Clinical effective. studies to address EMS outcomes research require the development of sophisticated case-severity & effectiveness measures. Outcomes research will allow future generations of Americans to have an EMS system that provides both quality & cost-effective EMS care. This project laid the foundation for these clinical effectiveness studies to take place. The project developed a blueprintÓ or set of toolsÓ that EMS practitioners can use to evaluate the effective. of EMS, or pre-hospital, care.Maio, Ronald is the author of 'Emergency Medical Services Outcomes Evaluation', published 2005 under ISBN 9780756746902 and ISBN 0756746906.
