As in many other developing countries, emergency medical services, especially pre-hospital emergency care, has long been neglected in Pakistan. Consequently, patients are brought to the emergency departments by relatives or bystanders in private cars, taxis or any other readily available mode of transportation. Ambulances, where they exist, have barely a stretcher and arrangements for oxygen supply. Modern emergency services are considered too costly for many countries. A model of pre-hospital emergency services, called Rescue 1122 and established in Punjab province of Pakistan, is presented. The system is supported by government funding and provides a quality service. The article describes the process of establishment of the service, the organisational structure, the scope of services and the role it is currently playing in the healthcare of the region it serves.
在许多其他发展中国家一样,紧急医疗服务,尤其是院前急救,长期以来一直被忽视在巴基斯坦。因此,病人被亲属或路人用私家车、出租车或任何其他现成的交通工具带到急诊室。救护车,在他们存在的地方,几乎没有担架和氧气供应的安排。现代紧急服务对许多国家来说都太昂贵了。提出了一种名为“救援 1122”的院前急救服务模式,并在巴基斯坦旁遮普省建立。该系统由政府资助,并提供优质服务。本文介绍了服务的建立过程、组织结构、服务范围以及它目前在服务地区医疗保健中所扮演的角色。
