Introduction. The article discusses the variety of organophosphorus compounds, ways of their intake, characteristic clinical manifestations and the modern algorithm of pre-hospital therapy in the practice of the emergency medical care brigade (EMC). The relevance of this problem lies in the fact that the total mass poisoning are poisoning with organophosphorus compounds (OPhC), because they are widely used in agriculture, industry and medicine. These compounds have a wide range of activity against pests of agricultural crops.The aim of the study – to improve quality of diagnostics and administering of quality first medical aid by the EMC workers to the patients poisoned with phosphoorganic comounds.Materials and Methods. The main pathogenetic mechanism of action organophosphorus compounds is inhibition of cholinesterase activity – the enzyme which hydrolyzes acetylcholine and plays an important role in the process of synaptic transmission of the nerve impulse in cholinergic formations. Inhibition of cholinesterase activity leads to the cessation or reduce the breakdown of acetylcholine, which leads to the accumulation of the latter and excessive excitement they cholinergic system. Poisoning by organophosphorus compounds leads to the formation of cholinesterase, which loses the ability to hydrolyze acetylcholine, and very slowly recovers its activity.Results and Discussion. Studies showed that the clinical picture of the effect of different organophosphorus compounds on the human body is the manifestation from the сentral or peripheral cholinergic systems. The rate of development of clinical manifestations depends on the mechanisms of admission of the poison into the body.If the poison gets through the respiratory tract, to the fore, appear symptoms of respiratory disorders, oral – digestive tract, through the skin – muscular fibrillation. Further, regardless of the mechanisms of penetration of organophosphorus compounds in the body, in the clinical picture of acute poisoning are manifested symptoms of affection of Central nervous system (the autonomic centers of the hypothalamic structures), eyes (miosis, decreased visual acuity, accommodation spasm), cardiovascular system (vegetative-vascular dystonia, myocardial), alimentary canal (hypersalivation, colic, dyskinesia of the intestine, biliary tract, toxic hepatitis), respiratory (bronchospasm, bronchure), skeletal muscles (convulsions).Conclusions. Given the polymorphism of clinical manifestations of the poisoning and its complications is vital the familiarization of the brigade of emergency medical care these conditions and provide skilled pre-hospital medical care. Through this comprehensive pre-hospital emergency medical care is the use of amilnitrite, in the presence of apnea or with significant respiratory failure – artificial lung ventilation and inhalation of oxygen. With the weakening of cardiac activity should use the solution of cordiamin subcutaneously, but when the vascular collapse – oxygen inhalation and subcutaneous injection of norepinephrine. Antidote therapy requires the introduction of 20 ml of chromosone intravenous, further – 30 % sodium hyposulfite intravenously.

Emergency medical service is organized as a separate field of health activities in order to provide uninterrupted emergency medical care for citizens who due to illness or injury have directly threatened the life, certain organs or certain parts of the body respectively cut the optimal time of occurrence of the emergency until the start of the final treatment process. Emergence clinic for 2020. Year ED over 100. 000-cases. The emergency health system doesn’t have a consolidated network and integrated emergency medical services.  Emergency health services in Europe are being challenged by changes in life dynamics, scientific advancements, which do increase the request to further improve the way of delivering emergency services. Health-system resilience can be defined as the capacity of health actors, institutions, and populations to prepare for and effectively respond to crises, to maintain core functions when a crisis hits, and—informed by lessons learned during the crisis to reorganize if conditions require it. Emergency clinic today at UCCK offers an area of 507m2, with 22 beds in the living room (1 bed per 100,000 population). Compliance with the law on emergency medical care, support, and improvement of EMS creating a special budget for EMS. EMS Independence (Decentralization). Budget, Management, accreditation, initiation of a project of systematization doctors of nurses in an integrated system. Regulation of administrative and legal infrastructure for EMS. The increase in salary (during holidays, weekends), shortening working hours for EMS, beneficial path (stress, risk, complexity, infections, first contact with the patient), the extension of annual leave. Functionalization of the Permanent National Center for Education EMS training, licensing, relicensing (medical staff) Quality control or EMS quality.

The aim of the study is to investigate the organizational aspects of providing emergency medical care to victims of road traffic accidents with injuries of the facial skeleton. Materials and research methods. The study included 75 victims of road accidents that occurred in the city of Saratov in 2010–2019. In the total number of injured men – 42 (56.0%), women – 33 (44.0%). The age of the victims is 18–70 years, the average age is (37.5 ± 6.0) years. The study did not include: victims under the age of 18; victims with neck trauma, damage to the cerebral section of the skull and to other parts of the body. All the victims got medical assistance from the personnel of the ambulance brigades. Covering sheets, outpatient cards and medical records were used as primary documentation. Study criteria: time during which the ambulance was provided; who provided emergency medical care; correctness of its rendering. Research results and their analysis. Analysis of injuries to the facial skeleton showed: injuries of the facial skeleton are an actual pathology in victims of road traffic accidents in Saratov; victims of road accidents got open and closed injuries of the facial skeleton. With closed injuries, moderate and severe injuries were found in 23 (30.7%) victims, with open injuries — in 19 (23.3%) victims; majority (90.7%) of victims of road accidents got high-quality emergency medical aid in a timely manner. In 9.3% of cases, the quality of care was insufficient due to an incorrect assessment of severity of the victims’ condition and, as a consequence, due to non-fulfillment of anti-shock measures; scope of the provision of emergency medical care to victims of road accidents included temporary hemostasis, treatment of wounds and anti-shock measures; from the accident site were evacuated: to level III trauma centers — 24.0% of victims; to level II — 48.0; to level I trauma centers — 28.0% of victims; complications in the form of purulent-septic processes were observed in 16.0% of victims; competent and timely implementation of anti-shock measures determined an insignificant mortality rate — 4.0%.

Objective. The present study was designed to further understand the psychosocial drivers of crowds impacting on the demand for healthcare. This involved analysing different spectator crowds for medical usage at mass gatherings; more specifically, did different football team spectators (of the Australian Football League) generate different medical usage rates. Methods. In total, 317 games were analysed from 10 venues over 2 years. Data were analysed by the ANOVA and Pearson correlation tests. Results. Spectators who supported different football teams generated statistically significant differences in patient presentation rates (PPR) (F15, 618 = 1.998, P = 0.014). The present study confirmed previous findings that there is a positive correlation between the crowd size and PPR at mass gatherings but found a negative correlation between density and PPR (r = –0.206, n = 317, P < 0.0005). Conclusions. The present study has attempted to scientifically explore psychosocial elements of crowd behaviour as a driver of demand for emergency medical care. In measuring demand for emergency medical services there is a need to develop a more sophisticated understanding of a variety of drivers in addition to traditional metrics such as temperature, crowd size and other physical elements. In this study we saw that spectators who supported different football teams generated statistically significant differences in PPR. What is known about this topic? Understanding the drivers of emergency medical care is most important in the mass gathering setting. There has been minimal analysis of psychological ‘crowd’ variables. What does this paper add? This study explores the psychosocial impact of supporting a different team on the PPR of spectators at Australian Football League matches. The value of collecting and analysing these types of data sets is to support more balanced planning, better decision support and knowledge management, and more effective emergency medical demand management. What are the implications for practitioners? This information further expands the body of evidence being created to understand the drivers of emergency medical demand and usage. In addition, it supports the planning and management of emergency medical and health-related requirements by increasing our understanding of the effect of elements of ‘crowd’ that impact on medical usage and emergency healthcare.
