Know what’s happening in national EMS data to assess, compare, and intervene. Take a look at some of our work in EMS care, motor vehicle crash incidence, and workforce dynamics!
🚨 New research! 🚨
Uncover impactful EMS trends:
👉 Trauma care pain scores missing in 1/3 of cases
👉 Behavioral health calls underrecognized by dispatch 80% of the time
👉 Workforce exit rates up to 26% in some states

Using national EMS data, we observed over 900 additional obstetric-related emergency activations in the first three months following the Supreme Court’s Dobbs decision. The majority of this increase occurred in states with protective abortion policies.

Thankful for the contributions of our study team!

What airway is dominant among prehospital out of cardiac arrests?
@gagecb3 uses multiple prehospital datasets to tackle this question in @JAMANetworkOpen, take a look!
This study of 1.7M adult OHCA cases using NEMSIS data confirms that ETI remains the dominant airway strategy, 2018-2023, contrasting prior findings from smaller datasets. ja.ma/4ci6Meb @gagecb3
Excited to announce that this week I joined @ImageTrend_LLC as an EMS researcher and Epidemiologist!
The past 4+ years at the @NREMT has been incredible and I owe so much to both the organization and the mentorship of @AshPanchalMD.
Excited for the future!

We really need to improve gender and racial gaps in EMT and paramedics.
Haven’t moved the needle over the past year.
80-90% white and ~80% male
How is your system?

New clinical judgment research from @NREMT!
How do the constructs of clinical judgment, leadership, and communication relate in EMS care? We got together a group of EMS subject matter experts to explore this idea, take a look if interested!

New prehospital naloxone research!
New study using @NEMSIS data in @JAMANetworkOpen explores layperson-administered naloxone (LAN) trends during EMS activations from 2020-2022. Results reveal a 43.5% increase in LAN use! @NREMT @OhioStateMed @jreadyp @henrywangmd @AshPanchalMD jamanetwork.com/journals/jam…
Excited to join @MedicMike05 and talk about EMS educational program resources!
New #podcast! How involved in education is your medical director of the paramedic program? Authors @MedicMike05 & @jreadyp discuss "Medical Directors, Facilities, & Finances: Resource Deficiencies in Accredited Paramedic Programs." @NAEMSPJournal @UKROBL1 podcasts.apple.com/us/podcas…

I’d like to wish everyone a happy National Waveform-EtCO2-is-the-Standard-of-Care-for-Airway-Placement-Confirmation-and-Monitoring Day”!
And, yes, this is a thing. I should know because I just deemed it so. And @QualityEms and the thinks it’s a great idea.
So Happy Day, y’all! – at Fort Worth, TX
Interested in a multi-state evaluation of those who entered, stayed, and left the EMS patient care workforce over a 2 year period? @JordanDKurthPhD has that and more here!

New EMS workforce conflict research using @NREMT data!
In this analysis, Dr. Halia Melnyk evaluated 674 EMS clinicians’ descriptions of conflict exacerbated by the COVID-19 pandemic.
Open Access: doi.org/10.3390/ijerph201058…
More below! (1/5)
While a single source of conflict to intervene upon would be desirable, it is not practical. Active surveillance of EMS clinicians during public health emergencies may provide stakeholders with real-time data to design interventions to combat increased occupational stress.
(4/5)
It was exciting to work with Dr. Melnyk and her @OSUWexMed CATALYST team on this project. Thankful to Dr. Melnyk, @mcalearney, Dr. Di Tosto, and @AshPanchalMD for all their work.
(5/5)
In our sample, 51% (857/1,686) reported COVID-19 exacerbated conflict and 79% (674/857) of these respondents described that conflict. Paramedics reported experiencing more conflict than EMTs.
(2/5)
We mapped responses to a systems model of clinician burnout and professional well-being from @NASEM_Health. Many responses had co-occurring codes, indicating that exacerbated workplace conflict may be due to various factors across multiple levels of their EMS system.
