✦ Synopsis
ABSTRACTS
patients who presented to the first aid station, 84% refused transport to the ED, including 7% who refused ALS care. Of the 16% transported, 34 were by basic life support and 37 by ALS. No deaths or adverse outcomes were reported. The authors state that the main problem encountered was poor documentation (which was effectively dealt with in the quality assurance reviews). The authors conclude that physicians do not need to be present at small to moderate-sized mass gatherings with adequate on-line communication in which on-scene time is less than 30 minutes in the absence of initiation of on-line medical control.
