AbstractPurpose:To assess the effectiveness of the use of dobutamine hydrochloride in out-of hospital emergency situations.Population:Patients with severe circulatory insufficiency caused by acute illness or injury encountered by the Mobile Intensive Care Unit of Copenhagen (population 467,000) during a 15-month study period.Methods:A newly developed dobutamine solution was administered by infusion pump to patients in whom normal emergency treatment failed to restore an acceptable circulatory state.Results:A total of 40 patients were treated with 4–48 μg dobutamine/kg/minute. The treatment was judged to be primary life-saving in 15 patients, the condition was improved in 16 patients, and nine patients died. Systolic blood pressures (in those who survived) rose from a mean value of 45 mmHg (range 0–80 mmHg) to 105 mmHg (range 65–180 mmHg). No tachycardia or arrhythmias were noted.Conclusion:This newly developed dobutamine solution is very useful in prehospital treatment of patients with circulatory failure and is recommend for use by mobile intensive care unit teams.

Background: Ischemic time has prognostic importance in ST-elevation myocardial infarction patients. Mobile intensive care unit use can reduce components of total ischemic time by appropriate triage of ST-elevation myocardial infarction patients. Methods: Data from the Acute Coronary Survey in Israel registry 2000–2010 were analyzed to evaluate factors associated with mobile intensive care unit use and its impact on total ischemic time and patient outcomes. Results: The study comprised 5474 ST-elevation myocardial infarction patients enrolled in the Acute Coronary Survey in Israel registry, of whom 46% ( n=2538) arrived via mobile intensive care units. There was a significant increase in rates of mobile intensive care unit utilization from 36% in 2000 to over 50% in 2010 ( p<0.001). Independent predictors of mobile intensive care unit use were Killip>1 (odds ratio=1.32, p<0.001), the presence of cardiac arrest (odds ratio=1.44, p=0.02), and a systolic blood pressure <100 mm Hg (odds ratio=2.01, p<0.001) at presentation. Patients arriving via mobile intensive care units benefitted from increased rates of primary reperfusion therapy (odds ratio=1.58, p<0.001). Among ST-elevation myocardial infarction patients undergoing primary reperfusion, those arriving by mobile intensive care unit benefitted from shorter median total ischemic time compared with non-mobile intensive care unit patients (175 (interquartile range 120–262) vs 195 (interquartile range 130–333) min, respectively ( p<0.001)). Upon a multivariate analysis, mobile intensive care unit use was the most important predictor in achieving door-to-balloon time <90 min (odds ratio=2.56, p<0.001) and door-to-needle time <30 min (odds ratio=2.96, p<0.001). One-year mortality rates were 10.7% in both groups (log-rank p-value=0.98), however inverse propensity weight model, adjusted for significant differences between both groups, revealed a significant reduction in one-year mortality in favor of the mobile intensive care unit group (odds ratio=0.79, 95% confidence interval (0.66–0.94), p=0.01). Conclusions: Among patients with ST-elevation myocardial infarction, the utilization of mobile intensive care units is associated with increased rates of primary reperfusion, a reduction in the time interval to reperfusion, and a reduction in one-year adjusted mortality.
