Abstract :
Pre-hospital care is a critical determinant of patient survival in emergency medical services (EMS). This article evaluates the impact of pre-hospital interventions, including advanced life support (ALS), basic life support (BLS), and rapid response protocols, on survival rates. By analyzing global case studies and recent research, the study identifies factors such as response times, intervention quality, and technological integration that significantly influence outcomes. The findings highlight disparities in EMS performance between urban and rural settings, emphasizing the need for targeted investments in training, infrastructure, and technology to enhance pre-hospital care and improve survival rates.
Keywords: Pre-hospital care, emergency medical services, survival rates, advanced life support, basic life support, response times, trauma care, cardiac arrest, stroke management, EMS technology.
