摘要

目的救护车紧急医疗服务（EMS）专业人员和直升机EMS （HEMS）医生之间的合作在文献中没有得到广泛的强调。本研究的目的是通过探讨在芬兰的医生工作人员的医疗急救专业人员的合作的观点来解决这一差距。方法本调查研究于2023年秋季在芬兰第一家农村医疗卫生服务单位FinnHEMS40 （FH40）开展，并在一年后重复进行。数码调查连结已透过电邮发送给所有在救护单位工作的急救专业人员。调查包括李克特5分制问题、多项选择题和开放式问题。李克特量表的答案用列联表、卡方检验和费雪精确检验进行分析。结果第一次调查回复率为522人中210人（40%），第二次调查回复率为200人（39%）。大多数受访者（90%）认为与FH40的合作很好或非常好。对医疗急救医生参加医疗急救任务的重要性的看法取决于他们的教育背景和以前的医疗急救工作经验。结果表明，具有2至5年工作经验的急救专业人员似乎更有信心在没有急救医生帮助的情况下独立管理各种急救任务。结论急救医师与救护单位的合作在救护专业人员中得到认可和重视。教育背景和工作经验影响医疗急救医师参加医疗急救任务的必要性。

Ambulance Emergency Medical Services Professionals’ Perspectives on Collaboration With Helicopter Emergency Medical Services Physicians

Objective

Collaboration between ambulance emergency medical service (EMS) professionals and helicopter EMS (HEMS) physicians has not been extensively highlighted in the literature. This study aims to address this gap by exploring the perspectives of ambulance EMS professionals on their collaboration with the physician-staffed HEMS unit in Finland.

Methods

This survey study was conducted in Finland’s first rural physician-staffed HEMS unit’s, FinnHEMS40 (FH40), operating area in the autumn of 2023 and repeated after a year. A digital survey link was sent through e-mail to all EMS professionals working in ambulance units. The surveys consisted of 5-point Likert-scale questions, multiple-choice questions, and open-ended questions. Likert-scale answers were analyzed with contingency tables and the chi-square test and Fisher’s exact test.

Results

Response rates were 210 of 522 (40%) for the first survey and 200 of 518 (39%) for the second survey. Most of all respondents (90%) felt that collaboration with FH40 has been good or excellent. The opinions on the importance of a HEMS physician’s attendance on EMS missions depended on their educational background and previous work experience in EMS. Results indicated that EMS professionals with 2 to 5 years of work experience seemed to feel more confident in managing various EMS missions independently without assistance from a HEMS physician.

Conclusion

Collaboration between HEMS physicians and ambulance units is appreciated and deemed important among EMS professionals working in ambulances. Educational background and work experience influence opinions on the necessity of HEMS physicians’ attendance in EMS missions.
