Evaluation of The Patients Brought to The Emergency Service by Helicopter Ambulance by REMS and NACA Score
Öz: Aim: Air ambulances are used to save patients and deliver firstaid where it is hard or impossible to access by land under favorableweather conditions. Air ambulances are indispensable in modernhealth care services. Air ambulance services are invaluable in termsof being fast and reliable and providing early response to thepatients in need as well as being costly. In this study, the aim is todemonstrate availability and efficiency of REMS score as well asNACA score that are frequently used in making a decision on usingair ambulance services.Material and Methods: In this study, 77 patients that weredispatched to the emergency service of our hospital by airambulance between January 2014 – December 2016 as a case orfrom other health centers were evaluated retrospectively. The datawere statistically analysed after they were uploaded to theprogram SPSS (Statistical Package for The Social Scienses) 23.0.Results: While median NACA value is 6 in the exitus cases, it is2 in the surviving cases; there is a statistically significant differencein the median NACA values between the two groups (p<0,001).While median REMS value is 17.5 in the exitus cases, it is 3 in thesurviving cases; there is a statistically significant difference in themedian REMS values between the two groups (p<0,001).Conclusion: Use of REMS score together with NACA score inevaluation of patients prior to helicopter ambulance serviceenables the health personnel to make more efficient and accuratedecisions.
Anahtar Kelime: Acil Servise Helikopter Ambulans İle Getirilen Hastaların REMS ve NACA Skoruna Göre Değerlendirilmesi
Öz: Amaç: Kara yolu ile ulaşımın zor veya imkânsız olduğu durumlarda uygun hava koşullarında hastaların kurtarılması ve ilk yardımın ulaştırılması için hava yolu ambulansları kullanılmaktadır. Modern sağlık hizmetlerinde hava ambulansları vazgeçilmezdir. Hava ambulansları; hızlı, güvenilir ve ihtiyacı olan hastalara erken müdahele açısından çok kıymetli olmakla birlikte maliyeti yüksek bir hizmettir. Bizim bu çalışmada amacımız hava ambulansı hizmetine karar verilirken sık kullanılan NACA skorlamasının yanında daha objektif kriterlerin kullanıldığı REMS skorunun da kullanılabilirliğini ve etkinliğini göstermektir. Gereç ve Yöntemler: Çalışmamızda Hastanemiz Acil Servisine Ocak 2014 –Aralık 2016 yılları arasında hava ambulansı ile vaka olarak veya diğer sağlık merkezlerinden sevkli getirilen 77 hasta retrospektif olarak incelenmiştir. Veriler SPSS (Statistical Package For The Social Scienses) 23.0 programına yüklenerek istatistiksel analizleri yapıldı. Bulgular: Ölen hastalarla yaşayan hastaların ortanca NACA değerleri arasında istatistiksel olarak anlamlı fark vardır (p<0,001). Ölenlerde ortanca değer 6 iken yaşayanlarda 2 olarak elde edilmiştir. Çalışmamızda REMS skorları ortanca değeri de ölenlerle yaşayanlara göre istatistiksel olarak anlamlı farklılık tespit edilmiştir. (p<0,001). Ölenlerde ortanca değer 17.5 iken yaşayanlarda 3 olarak elde edilmiştir Sonuç: Helikopter Ambulans hizmeti öncesi hastaların değerlendirilmesinde NACA skorlaması ile birlikte REMS skorunun da kullanılması; Sağlık personelinin daha etkin ve doğru karar vermesini sağlayacaktır.
