Comparison of the activities of the emergency services and military medics Czech Republic
SEDLÁKOVÁ, Aneta
This thesis is focused on the most common injuries that are attended by health care armies workers in the Czech Republic, and also the most common traumas that are attended by ground ambulance. I would like to divide my thesis into two parts. The first part focuses on general information on the structure and training of health professionals AČR and ground ambulance services, but especially for injuries that are most cosistently found in the literature of these two groups. Which are thermal injury, massive bleeding, wounds, traumatic amputations and injuries of the respiratory systém. This theoretical part is followed by data collection, which was conducted using questionnaries and semi-structured interviews, whose filling were participated by twelve randomly selected respondents from across the Czech Republic. Six from the first group and six from the second group. Evaluation of responses and transcribed interviews are presented in the practical part of this thesis. The second part contains a database of the three most common traumas to men between the ages of 18 40. The ambulance services of South Bohemia medical rescue provided a database of three most common injuries. The second source was from health care of armies in the Czech Republic, which were provided to me by the military Hospital in Brno. On evaluation of these databases follows another theoretical part describing traumas. I would like to point out the differences between traumas which have been documented in medical journals and real life trauma situations. From interviewing civilian health care professionals I found out that the most common injuries were too the head, while gunshots and splinter wounds were most common in the military . The information and conclusions are based on the database for both groups, and are representative of attendence of real life emergency situations. The conclusions are consistent with the reality. The survey also revealed that AČR medics generally treat simpler injuries. For example, in terms of intervention during natural disasters, paramedics answered coherently and clearly. To improve this situation more frequent training is required for paramedics in this area. Medics also reported the attendence of a larger number of mandatory courses, while for paramedics, the most of the courses were voluntary. Further research revealed that paramedics often engage in minor cases, whereas health professionals do not.Suggestions for improving these issues could be charging for unnecessary call outs and for patients who repeatedly use the service. It is not easy to solve this problem and I think that the soloutions are currently being trialled. Regarding to access to various injuries, both groups of respondents proceeded according to their own practice and in my opinion, it can not be compared with each other.
