We aimed to study the availability, perception, and future aspects of POCUS in the European HEMS. Methods: A survey about the use of POCUS in HEMS was conducted by a multinational steering expert committee and was carried out from November 30, 2020 to December 30, 2020 via an online web portal. Invitations for participation were sent via email to the medical directors of the European HEMS organizations including two reminders. Results: During the study period, 69 participants from 25 countries and 41 different HEMS providers took part in the survey.

This article is published with open access at Springerlink.com Abstract Assessment of risk considering both the probability of occurrence of a natural phenomenon and its consequences on the elements at risk is an essential step before the design of adequate risk reduction strategies in local, regional or national level. Within the EU-funded project SEERISK ‘‘Joint disaster management risk assessment and prepared- ness for the Danube macro-region’’, a common methodology for risk assessment and mapping for climate change-related hazards has been developed. Vulnerability assessment is a large part of the risk assessment procedure, and it requires a considerable amount of detailed data. The methodology for risk assessment presented here is in line with the EC Guidelines for Risk Assessment and Mapping, and it provides alternatives in order to tackle the problem of varying data quality and quantity necessary for the analysis of hazard and vulnerability. In the present study, the methodology is adapted for heat waves and is applied in the city of Arad, Romania.

  • Emergency Air Rescue System in Romania Sebastian Tranca1*, Robert Szabo2, Cătălin Dache3, Mihai Mureșan3
    Acta Medica Marisiensis 2018;64(1):4-9 DOI: 10.2478/amma-2018-0007 REVIEW Emergency Air Rescue System in Romania Sebastian Tranca1*, Robert Szabo2, Cătălin Dache3, Mihai Mureșan3 1. "Iuliu Hatieganu" University of Medicine and Pharmacy, Cluj-Napoca, Romania 2. Emergency County Clinical Hospital Cluj-Napoca, Romania 3. The General Aviation Inspectorate of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, Romania The helicopter, as a means of transport, has facilitated a significant decrease in intervention time at the site of request, increasing the chances of survival of the critical patient. Since 2003, SMURD has managed to form a fleet composed of nine helicopters and two airplanes. From an operational and strategic point of view, the SMURD intervention unit, set up seven Aeromedical Operational Bases (A.O.B.) equipped with helicopters and materials necessary for their operation. There is a dynamic increase in the number of air rescue missions in Romania, with most missions being carried out by the air rescue bases in Târgu Mureş and Bucharest. Specialty literature has clearly demonstrated the positive impact on the survival of critical patients assisted by airborne crews, so it is necessary for the Romanian air rescue system to grow up. It is necessary to increase the number of air bases, purchase new helicopters and to continue the training programs of both pilots and medical personnel. Keywords: emergency medical service, helicopter, air rescue, retrieval medicine, critical care transport Received 12 January 2018 / Accepted 08 February 2018 Helicopter emergency medical service (HEMS) has be- a high potential for worsening during transport, requir- come a significant component of prehospital treatment ing inter-hospital transfer to a specialized facility, should of traumatized patients in many countries [1,2].

Just two weeks ago elements of the Internaonal police aviaon community were meeng together on a German police air base in a move that certainly promoted cooperaon between industry and their police customers. As ever that event was an unqualified success for every aendee. One week later came Brexit, where the United Kingdom [or at least most of it] rejected connued membership of the European Union and apparently rejected all things Internaonal at a stroke. The two situaons appear to sit poles apart. As just one individual who voted ‘out’ of the EU and being one having perhaps every reason to ‘remain’ I can say that it is not as clear cut as it seems and it is certainly not a rejecon of Interna- onalism on my part nor on the part of most who made that decision.

Mining areas have recently been the target of major attacks by gunmen The security constables should be working within weeks. A helicopter to patrol the interior has been discussed but issues about overall costs, lease or purchase and who would actually operate it – the military or police – remain to be re- solved. The viability of this was further clouded by a call to have two machines to ensure the safety of the first flying over the vast and sparsely inhabited 214,970sq km/83,000 sq mls interior of the country.

Since 1998, Romania replaced the Semashko model with a social health insurance system, highly centralized under the management of the Ministry of Health as the central administrative authority. After joining the European Union, quality of life increased in our country and there were efforts to improve the quality of healthcare, including pediatric and neonatal care. Still, Romania has the lowest share of health expenditure of gross domestic product among the European Union Member States and the lowest level of expenditure per inhabitant.
