Stone Staircase on the Farm
摘要
On a frosty March morning, an ambulance crew calls for a physician-staffed emergency medical service (EMS) unit for an unconscious patient after a fall down the stairs. About 10 minutes after the alarm, the helicopter EMS (HEMS) lands on the grounds of a farm. The patient is already in the ambulance, where the HEMS physician finds him on a spineboard in a supine position with a stabilized cervical spine.
