Evidence Based Protocols
The Evidence Based Protocols project is a collaborative effort of Canada's EMS physicians, paramedics, Dalhousie University Division of EMS and Emergency Health Services.
The purposes of the Prehospital Evidence Based Protocols Project are:
- to catalogue EMS studies
- to stimulate debate and growth towards evidence-based protocols
- to be a resource for the development of local EMS protocols; perhaps with a movement towards "best 4) practice" paramedic protocols.
- to be a guide to help recognize opportunities for prehospital research.
- to develop a process of using evidence to evaluate practice change suggestions made by paramedics.
The protocols are listed at Canadian Prehospital Evidence Based Protocols.
