Abstract:The provision of prehospital (Emergency Medical Services (EMS)) care has come under increased scrutiny in recent years. Many have questioned the value of the range of EMS services currently provided. There is a persistent concern about the lack of proof of effectiveness related to most EMS care. Clinical effectiveness studies to address EMS outcomes research require the development of sophisticated case-severity and effectiveness measures. Outcomes research will allow future generations of Americans to have an EMS system that provides both quality and cost-effective EMS care. This report describes a project that has laid the foundation for these clinical effectiveness studies to take place. This project developed a "blueprint" or "set of tools" that EMS practitioners can use to evaluate the effectiveness of EMS, or prehospital, care. /Abstract from report summary page/
