Mass casualty events that result from conventional terrorist attacks have become more common in recent years. These events are characterized by major chaos and a large number of injured victims that overwhelm local resources and personnel. Mass casualty protocols and management are often based on theoretical models adapted from the military experience and literature. Over the last few years the medical system in Israel has had to deal with multiple mass casualty events resulting from terrorist events. This has led to the development of novel strategies that may run contrary to traditional teachings. The current report summarizes the experience and lessons learned by the Israeli Emergency Medical Services and its hospitals over the last few years. Although each hospital and Emergency Medical Service agency will need to tailor its management plan to its particular needs, it is our hope that the lessons learned in Israel will assist others in optimizing the care of mass casualty events.
近年来,由常规恐怖袭击导致的大规模伤亡事件变得更加常见。这些事件的特点是严重混乱,大量受伤受害者使当地资源和人员不堪重负。大规模伤亡事件的预案和管理通常基于借鉴军事经验和文献的理论模型。在过去几年里,以色列的医疗系统不得不应对多起由恐怖事件导致的大规模伤亡事件。这促使了一些可能与传统教义相悖的新策略的产生。本报告总结了以色列紧急医疗服务部门及其医院在过去几年中的经验和教训。尽管每个医院和紧急医疗服务机构都需要根据自身特殊需求调整其管理计划,但我们希望以色列吸取的教训能帮助其他地区优化大规模伤亡事件的救治工作。
