Prehospital Emergency Medicine
A 911 call to a dispatch center usually initiates prehospital treatment, which is a crucial component of the emergency health care continuum. Trained professionals who receive such a call routinely assess whether emergency care is necessary. They then send the proper air and ground ambulances as well as other EMS responders to triage, treat, and transport the patient or patients to the proper medical facility, where final care is given. A coordinated and integrated emergency health care system with skilled and equipped staff at hospitals, specialist care facilities, ambulance providers, and dispatch centers provides this continuum of traditional care.

Massive Transfusion Protocol
Massive Transfusion Protocol (MTP) is a standardized medical procedure activated in cases of severe hemorrhage, typically involving the rapid administration of large volumes of blood products. The goal is to restore circulating volume, maintain hemostasis, and prevent the lethal triad of hypothermia, acidosis, and coagulopathy. MTP usually involves a balanced ratio of packed red blood cells, plasma, and platelets, often in a 1:1:1 ratio. Early activation and coordination among trauma teams, laboratory services, and blood banks are essential for its success.
