“…TBIs are complex situations that can clearly benefit from prehospital care [5]. Advanced trauma life-support actions, developed at the scene or en route, decisively contribute to avoiding brain injuries secondary to hypoxia or hypotension [6][7][8]. When dealing with TBIs in a prehospital setting, the emergency medical services (EMS) must carry out a systematised assessment [9] and must be able to perform complex procedures at the scene, such as advanced airway management, advanced immobilisation techniques, and analgesia procedures [10].…”

“…Auch das prähospitale Setting wurde in den letzten Jahren zunehmend standardisiert. Es werden auch hier bestimmte Algorithmen als erforderlich betrachtet, um wertvolle Zeit zu gewinnen und das Outcome des Patienten zu verbessern [26]. Schweiberer et al fassten bereits 1987 die Kombination folgender Fähigkeiten im Rahmen der Schwerstverletztenversorgung als essenziell zusammen: das rasche Erfassen der traumatischen Gesamtbelastung, das zügige Erkennen aller bedrohlichen und relevanten Verletzungsmuster sowie das schnelle Setzen der richtigen Prioritäten [22].…”

“…The initial assessment of the trauma patient allows to determine the patient's condition, as well as the best timely decisions to be made for subsequent management. According to the Prehospital Trauma Life Support (PHTLS), the initial assessment of the patient should be focused on 25 The first critical step of prehospital care is to be able to identify if the patient has lifethreatening bleeding, which can be challenging on initial evaluation. Given this, initiatives have been undertaken to develop tools to detect hemorrhagic shock in a timely fashion, and to take initial steps to slow hemorrhage on the field.…”

“…As such, if a provider waits for hypotension to suspect that a patient is hemodynamically decompensating, it may already be too late for any intervention 27,28 . Therefore, it is recommended to have the systolic blood pressure (SBP) as a reference, with the alarm point being a SBP of less than 90 mmHg 25,29 ,…”
