Supporting the ambulance service to safely convey fewer patients to hospital by developing a risk prediction tool: Risk of Adverse Outcomes after a Suspected Seizure (RADOSS)—protocol for the mixed-methods observational RADOSS project
Abstract:IntroductionAmbulances services are asked to further reduce avoidable conveyances to emergency departments (EDs). Risk of Adverse Outcomes after a Suspected Seizure seeks to support this by: (1) clarifying the risks of conveyance and non-conveyance, and (2) developing a risk prediction tool for clinicians to use ‘on scene’ to estimate the benefits an individual would receive if conveyed to ED and risks if not.Methods and analysisMixed-methods, multi-work package (WP) project. For WP1 and WP2 we shall use an ex… Show more
