On Wednesday, October 24th at 1pm EDT, Kris Kaull, critical care flight paramedic and Pulsara's CMO, will join David Edgar, CCP, paramedic and assistant chief of EMS for the city of West Des Moines, Iowa to discuss how their region has used mobile technology to improve treatment times. EMS World will be hosting the webinar ahead of the EMS World Expo at the end of the month.
The Des Moines metro-area once struggled to unite all of their EMS agencies and multiple hospitals with one another during time-sensitive emergencies, such as stroke and heart attacks. EMS and the emergency department used a legacy system of telephone calls when preparing a patient for critical care, making multiple calls to alert the appropriate care teams and relay important patient information including ETA, case type, vital signs, and more.
EMS services in the Des Moines area recognized a need for a solution that would get all members of the care team on the same page and potentially improve treatment times, patient care, and team coordination. Learn how Des Moines area EMS teams collaborated with its hospital systems to employ mobile technology that improves patient care, not only for the high-acuity calls, but for every patient transport through the region.
