Élaboration et validation d'un outil de mesure de la charge en soins paramédicale en urgence préhospitalière

Prehospital pain treatment: an economic productivity factor in emergency medicine?

“…More than 41% of the population was assessed at a severity level of CCMS 3, and approximately 25% each were assessed at the CCMS 2 and CCMS 4 levels. All these data (Table 3) are in line with the literature definition of a MERS population [25,26]. Finally, 134 different diagnoses were counted, and the 25 most representative diagnoses are described in Table 4.…”

“…The second score was assessed using the CW assessment system of the MERS (SECSIsmur, Systeme d'Evaluation de la Charge en SoIns du SMUR) [26,27] which is a tool used to appraise the workload specific to the MERS activity. The main benefit of this tool [Table 2] based on the collection of 17 variables is that it can be expressed in time units: 1 PRN (Projet Recherche Nursing) point = 5 minutes.…”

Construction of an adaptable and specific severity score for prehospital emergencies

“…A form listing 83 criteria was used to collect data on demography, means implemented, places and times of action, medical acts performed, patient outcome and two existing scores: the clinical classification of patients from the MERS (CCMS),4 and the care workload assessment system of MERS 5. Patients were graded into five main categories of outcome (table 1), which will be called the “homogeneous groups of intervention” (HGI).…”
