Management of life-threating bleeding in pre-hospital emergency care
PFEFFER, František
The topic of this bachelor thesis is ´Management of Life-Threatening Bleeding in Pre-hospital Emergency Care´. It consists of two parts - a theoretical one and a practical one. The objective of the first part is to introduce the readers to the issue of life-threatening bleeding and to define a certain theoretical frame needed for the purposes of understanding this topic. First, information about the anatomy of cardiovascular system is presented, such as what blood is and how it is disseminated throughout the body. Subsequently, the term of bleeding is explained, what the reasons for its occurrence are, its results and how a human body reacts to reverse this pathological situation. Last but not least, the definition of a life-threatening bleeding is stated as well as the current recommended procedures, non-pharmacological and pharmacological means that are being used in pre-hospital emergency care at the occurrence of this serious condition. The practical part contains information acquired via semi-structured interviews with 6 emergency medical workers. These were first analysed and subsequently divided into 11 categories with the purpose of - 1. To discover what diagnostic-therapeutic options and knowledge paramedics working at the ground and air rescue service in the regions of South Bohemia and Plzeň possess. 2. To compare the acquired information among the regions stated above. We believe that the set objectives have successfully been fulfilled and thus it is possible to get an insight into the current procedures that emergency medical workers apply daily in pre-hospital emergency care, encountering a patient suffering from a life-threatening bleeding.
