Recently, the manager of the ALS unit I work for asked if anyone is interested in completing a research project. We are a hospital based non-transporting ALS unit that is part of a fairly busy ED with a 3-year EM residency program. Our territory is a combination of urban, suburban, and rural. Our total call-volume is approximately 4800-5000 calls per year. The unit has a long history of supporting research projects and in the past has contributed to projects supporting prehospital transcutaneous pacing, Rapid Sequence Induction, prehospital ABG?s, and CPAP. Many of these projects have become part of our current therapeutic regimen and commonplace nationwide.
However, I am looking for ideas that any experienced providers have found interesting or projects that they would like to see attempted in the prehospital environment. I have a few ideas myself, but would like to see what others are thinking and then go on from there.
I hope to hear some creative and challenging ideas, as it seems there is a TON of experience represented on this board.
