From Anecdote to Evidence: The Importance of EMS Research

EMS research should go hand-in-hand with our clinical training. It requires collaboration, context and curiosity.  How can educators best support research?  Satisfy student curiosity by encouraging them to research what interests them.  From who says prayers for patients to paramedics using marijuana to which suctions sucks better, conducting research and learning about our profession makes us all better.

On Nov. 30, 2021, join your fellow EMS clinicians at the free 24-hour International Research Conference 2021: Global Developments in EMS Research.  You'll earn CE credit and hear topics such as monitoring the gazes of novice medics during defibrillation, suicidality and  compassion fatigue, how we should evaluate claims on social media, TXA and whole blood for trauma, and more.  These are new ideas, on the cutting edge of science, and not yet in textbooks. CE powered by Prodigy EMS. 

In this episode, Rob Lawrence interviews the international panel of guests hosting this conference:  Julia Williams, Professor of Paramedic Science at the University of Hertfordshire in the UK; Linda Ross, Associate Professor & Deputy Head of the Paramedicine Department at Monash University in Australia; & David Page, Director of the Prehospital Care Research Forum at UCLA in the US.
