This study aimed to identify the types and frequency of acute medical events at a university with a collegiate-based emergency medical services (CBEMS) agency. Patients who requested assistance from the studied CBEMS agency, which provides emergency medical services coverage at a medium-sized urban university. This retrospective chart review examined requests for emergency service from August 2010-July 2017. Data abstracted include the type of medical event, frequency, call times/dates, and locations of reported medical events. The studied agency received an average 889.4 (SD +/-68.6 calls) per year with the most common falling under the categories of "Substance Abuse" (231.7 calls/year, SD +/-15.7) and "Minor Trauma" (207.1 calls/year, SD+/-37.8). Most requests for acute medical attention occurred between the hours of 1800-0600 on Fridays and Saturdays. These results suggest that universities can potentially predict patterns and prepare for the types of acute medical issues that occur on campus.
本研究旨在确定一所设有学院急救医疗服务（CBEMS）机构的大学的急性医疗事件类型和频率。 研究对象为向研究中的 CBEMS 机构寻求帮助的患者，该机构在一所中型城市大学提供紧急医疗服务。 这项回顾性图表审查检查了 2010 年 8 月至 2017 年 7 月期间的紧急服务请求。提取的数据包括医疗事件的类型、频率、呼叫时间/日期以及报告医疗事件的地点。 该研究机构平均每年接收 889.4 次（SD +/-68.6 次）呼叫，最常见的是“药物滥用”（231.7 次/年，SD +/-15.7）和“轻微创伤”（207.1 次/年，SD +/-37.8）。大多数对急性医疗关注的请求发生在周五和周六的 1800-0600 之间。 这些结果表明，大学可以预测校园内发生的急性医疗问题的模式，并为此做好准备。
