Internationally Informed Consensus on Research Priorities in Paramedicine and Emergency Medical Services (EMS)

Listen to this summary

The authors aimed to identify and validate a set of internationally informed research priorities for paramedicine and prehospital emergency medical services (EMS) to guide strategic investment and evidence generation. Through a multi-phase, stakeholder-informed consensus process, they developed a framework comprising nine interrelated factors and 40 research priorities that reflect contemporary prehospital practice. The findings are intended to help researchers, funders, and EMS organizations align their efforts and address critical gaps in the field while considering local contexts.
