Accurate identification of acute coronary syndrome (ACS) in the prehospital setting is important for timely treatments that reduce damage to the compromised myocardium. Current machine learning approaches lack sufficient performance to safely rule-in...
BACKGROUND: Early intervention in patients with major traumatic injuries is critical. Decision support can improve clinicians' ability to identify high-risk patients. The aim of this study was to compare the performance of a machine-learning (ML) dec...
The rising integration of emergency healthcare services with the Internet of Medical Things (IoMT) creates a significant opportunity to improve real-time communication between patients and emergency vehicles like ambulances. Fast and reliable data in...
BACKGROUND: Stroke is a large and increasing health challenge, leading to acquired physical disability and mortality. A rapid diagnostic assessment in the acute phase of a stroke is crucial and highly time dependent. Studies suggest that artificial i...

Point-of-care ultrasound is an emerging technology in prehospital emergency care, covering a wide range of medical and traumatic disease patterns. As an ad-hoc imaging modality, it is performed on-scene and during ground or aeromedical transport, ena...
Early warning scores are used to assess acute patients' risk of being in a critical situation, allowing for early appropriate treatment, avoiding critical outcomes. The early warning scores use changes in vital signs to provide an assessment, however...
OBJECTIVES: Most patients presenting with chest pain in the emergency medical services (EMS) setting are suspected of non-ST-elevation acute coronary syndrome (NSTE-ACS). Distinguishing true NSTE-ACS from non-cardiac chest pain based solely on the EC...

BACKGROUND: Timely prehospital care is crucial for patients presenting with high-risk time-sensitive (HRTS) conditions. However, the interplay between response time and demographic factors in patients with breathing problems remains insufficiently un...
IMPORTANCE: Under austere prehospital conditions, rapid classification of injured patients for intervention or transport is essential for providing lifesaving care. Discerning which patients need care most urgently further allows for optimal allocati...
