Los pacientes de trauma de múltiples sistemas frecuentemente necesitan la intervención de múltiples especialistas. Los hospitales especializados en el manejo de pacientes de trauma no solamente tienen cirujanos de trauma disponibles las 24 horas. También son responsables de coordinar el cuidado crítico de los pacientes. Por ende, la regla de oro en los cursos tales como el PHTLS (Prehospital Trauma Life Support) es que todos los pacientes de trauma deben ir a un centro de trauma. No obstante, no todos los pacientes de trauma necesitan un centro de trauma. De hecho, el término sobre-triaje implica clasificar un paciente más crítico de lo que realmente es. Probablemente siempre es mejor fallar a favor del paciente y que tenga acceso a todos los servicios disponibles. Sin embargo, desde el punto de vista de un sistema, el transportar a TODOS los pacientes de trauma a un centro de trauma puede ser oneroso en términos de los recursos necesarios para completar el transporte y la sobreutilización de recursos especializados para casos que no se amerita, sobrecargando los hospitales que, indistintamente que NO puedan rehusar atender a los pacientes de trauma, sí tienen una capacidad limitada. Por lo tanto, es necesario llevar a cabo un triaje a centro de trauma. Algunos pacientes de trauma pueden ser evaluados en hospitales que no funcionan al nivel de un centro de trauma nivel 1 ó nivel 2. El American College of Surgeons actualizó las recomendaciones de qué pacientes deben ser transportados a un centro de trauma. No todos necesitan un centro de trauma, pero estos sí. El objetivo de este artículo NO es desalentar el transporte de un paciente de trauma a un centro de trauma. Todo lo contrario... el objetivo es resaltar que los pacientes que cumplen estos criterios sí (o sí) necesitan ir a un centro de trauma. No todos los hospitales son, ni serán, centros de trauma nivel 1 o nivel 2. Por lo tanto es posible que la facilidad de trauma más cercana esté a cierta distancia del lugar del incidente. Es posible que un paciente con un trauma menor sea transportado a un hospital local. Es posible que un sistema de emergencias médicas esté transportando muchos casos de trauma menor a facilidades locales. Pero, de vez en cuando, hay un caso de trauma mayor. Criterios Rojos - Riesgo de Lesión Seria Patrones de lesión Lesiones penetrantes a la cabeza, cuello, torso y extremidades proximales Deformidad del cráneo, sospecha de fractura de cráneo Sospecha de lesión espinal con pérdida de función motora o sensorial Inestabilidad de la pared torácica, deformidad, o tórax paradójico ("flail chest") Sospecha de fractura de pelvis Sospecha de fractura de dos o más huesos largos proximales Extremidad aplastada, destrozada o sin pulso Amputación proximal a la muñeca o al tobillo Sangrado activo que requiera un torniquete, o empaque de herida con presión continua. Estatus Mental y Signos Vitales En cualquier edad No sigue comandos (ECG motora < 6) FR menor de 10 ó mayor de 29 por minuto Dificultad respiratoria o necesitad de apoyo respiratorio Saturación en aire ambiente menor de 90% 0-9 años Presión sistólica < 70 + (edad x 2) mmHg 10-64 años Presión sistólica < 90 mmHg ó FC > Presión sistólica Edad > 65 años Presión sistólica < 110 mmHg FC > SBP Criterios Amarillo: Riesgo Moderado de Lesión Seria Mecanismo de la lesión Choque vehicular de alto riesgo Eyección parcial o completa Intrusión significativa (incluyendo la capota) > 12 pulgadas en la cabina del ocupante ó > 18 pulgadas en cualquier lugar ó Necesidad de extracción de paciente pillado Muerte en el compartimiento de pasajeros Niño (0-9 años) sin asiento protector o cinturón de seguridad Data de telemetría del vehículo consistente con lesión severa Conductor separado del vehículo de transporte con impacto significativo. (ej. motocicleta, vehículo todo-terreno, caballo, etc.) Peatón o ciclista lanzado, atropellado o con impacto significativo Caída de altura mayor de 10 pies (todas las edades) Juicio del proveedor del SEM Considere factores de riesgo, incluyendo: Caídas de baja altura en niños menores ( 65 años) con impacto significativo a la cabeza Uso de anticoagulantes Sospecha de abuso de menor Necesidad de recursos especiales o de tecnología Embarazo > 20 semanas Quemaduras en conjunto al trauma Los niños deben ser transportados preferiblemente a un centro de trauma pediátrico. Si le preocupa, transporte a un centro de trauma. Los pacientes que cumplen al menos un criterio amarillo, pero que NO cumplen ningún criterio rojo, pueden ser transportados a un centro de trauma, según estén disponibles en su región (no tiene que ser el centro de trauma de mayor categoría). Más recursos o redistribuir recursos Un análisis del costo (monetario y recursos) de transportar pacientes de trauma a la facilidad adecuada puede reflejar que hacen falta más ambulancias en una región. Es importante robustecer la capacidad regional, y por ende, no depender de recursos distantes.

Bank of Idaho Holding Co. CEO Jeff Newgard tells Proactive the group has recently raised $53.2 million in a common stock private placement. Newgard says capital helps it fund the acquisition of Seattle-based HomeStreet, Inc. to acquire an eastern Washington branch network including in in Spokane, Kennewick, Dayton, Yakima, and Sunnyside.

“Today, in literal terms, everybody has to operate as that state-of-the-art bank,” says Kevin Piette, chief operating officer and chief information officer for State Bank of Cross Plains, in the newest episode of ICBA's Communities of Innovation podcast. Cybersecurity is a growing priority today for community banks, which are up against an ever-increasing presence of hackers, security breaches and hidden threats. But, according to Piette and Jeff Newgard, president and CEO of Bank of Idaho, community banks shouldn't just build a plan. They need an ecosystem of cybersecurity technology, relationships, and best practices. Piette and Newgard are joined by host Charles Potts, ICBA's chief innovation officer.

On this episode of The Bill Alexander Show, Bill talks with Jeffery Sitcov and Joanne Newgard of DoorsofChange.org. Since 2001, Doors of Change™ has been transforming the lives of homeless youth, one young person at a time. Originally called Photocharity, the 501(c)(3) has raised over $4.7 million. For more than 18 years we have helped place over 2,000 homeless youth in safe housing and off the streets.In 2013 the agency identified a significant gap in the services and resources available to “transitional–age-youth” (those between the ages of 16 and 25) and decided to re-brand as Doors of Change™ and deliver a unique service to address this critical need. We work with youth ages 17-25 years old.Recognizing that trust is often a significant barrier for youth in need of services, Doors of Change™ selected music and art as a non-threatening way to engage young people living on the streets. By offering music and art instruction in a small group setting, youth are given the opportunity to explore their feelings and challenges through the arts, achieve a sense of mastery for the first time, develop social skills that are positive and constructive, and create a vision for the future that is filled with possibility.

Jeffrey Sitcov, President & Founder of Doors of Change, and Joanne Newgard, Program Director for the organization’s “Taking Music & Arts to the Streets” (TMATS) program, chat about transforming the lives of homeless youth through their programs and events. Sitcov and Newgard talk about the August 25 fundraiser at the Belly Up Tavern featuring the popular Atomic Groove musical group.

Wantabe et al. (2018) "Is Use of Warning Lights and Sirens Associated With Increased Risk of Ambulance Crashes?" was the first to definitively link L&S use with ambulance crashes.   Data extrapolated from Wantabe et al. (2018) Response Crash Rate: 4.6 / 100,000 without L&S 5.4 / 100,000 with L/S Transport Crash Rate: 7 / 100,000 without L&S 17.1 / 100,000 with L&S The authors theorize a driving reason behind their observations as such: “During response two providers are in the front and share the cognitive load required to operate an ambulance”. NHTSA - Proposed L&S Response Benchmark: Reduce L/S use to less than 50% during response. Less than 5% during transport. Common arguments for the use of L/S: Saves time Time is brain/muscle Public expectation History The general attitude may stem from the genesis of EMS, where First Aid attendants were not trusted to discern if a patient was stable or not. Ergo, the strategy of the time was to rapidly transport all patients with the underlying presumption that all patients “would” deteriorate unless proven otherwise AFTER arrival at a hospital. With current advances in prehospital care, the vast majority of injury/illnesses can be effectively managed during the out-of-hospital phase of patient care. Increased vehicle safety should be championed along with the need to decrease the use of L&S. Lime Green colors decreases rate of overall crashes Lime Green: 28.2 crashes per 1 million miles travelled Red/White: 62.1 crashes per 1 million miles travelled The average rate of car crashers per 1 million miles is 2.6 / 1 million miles of travel. (Solomon, 1995) Does it save lives? (Anderson, 2014) Study in Denmark looked for morbidity by studying 94,488 patients transported without L&S and found only 152 patients (0.16%) that died the same day as their ambulance transport. A panel of prehospital anesthesiologists reviewed the patient care reports and found 13 (0.02%) with potentially preventable deaths. If every one of these deaths could have been prevented with L&S transport, the “number needed to treat” would have been 5000 extra L&S transports. (Anderson 2014) (Kupas 1994) Protocol is used to identify patients that may benefit by the time saved with L&S transport. When using this protocol on 1625 patients, only 130 (8%) were transported using L&S. A review of the 92% of cases where L&S was not used, the receiving physicians did not identify any cases of possible morbidity due to a slower transport. (Merlin 2012) Merlin developed an even simpler medical protocol for L&S transport, which reduced L&S transport in this urban New Jersey community from 49.6% to 29.0% for patients transported by ALS providers. (Marques-Batista 2010) 112 patients transported with L&S found that only five of those patients received a time-critical intervention upon arrival to the emergency department, and none of these procedures was done within the 2.62 minutes saved by L&S transport (Newgard 2010) The Resuscitation Outcomes Consortium studied the outcomes for injured patients treated by 146 EMS agencies, transporting to 51 Level I and II trauma centers, in ten North American communities. This large study found no association between survival and EMS time intervals – including response time and transport time. Does it save time? L&S use generally only shortens response and transport time intervals by 1.7-3.6 minutes, and transport time only by 0.7-3,8 minutes. Greenville, NC; Saved average of 43.5 seconds Fatalities: 9.6 fatalities per 100,000 people per capita related to transportation. Rear Occupants are 2.7 times more likely to die in a crash (Kahn, 2001) Exceeds rate for LEOs and FFs Rear occupants 2.7 times more likely to be killed in ambulance crash But our Fracile Response Time needs to be 8 minutes! Stems from 1979 study in Seattle of cardiac arrests What matters more is when the first arriving aid is present. Now we have widespread T-CPR, rapid dispatch, bystander CPR, and LEO responses w/ AEDs. EMSA Response Time Standards: Priority one calls - 10.59 Priority two calls - 24.59 Respond to only 33% of calls w/ L/S Have NOT observed any changes in cardiac arrest survival rates. Time Critical Conditions: Rendering a coronary intervention sooner by 10 minutes would decrease death by only 0.4% Rather, work on earlier notification, reduced scene times, and in-hospital workflow. Best chance of survival from OOHCA is to obtain ROSC on scene. Public Perception: Anecdotally, it is possible some patients hesitate to call EMS for medical emergencies, because they are uncomfortable with L&S responses and increased attention. See the ubiquitous "caller requests no lights or sirens" dispatch. A 1988 phone survey of the public in Connecticut cited sirens and noise (67/604 respondents) as the primary reason for being uncomfortable in calling EMS during an emergency, and this response was followed by “getting lots of attention” (49/604 respondents). (Smackery 1988) Critz reported that the families of terminally ill patients who died at home sometimes felt anger with EMS, and L&S response was listed as one of the reasons for this. One-third of drivers responding to a survey in the United Kingdom reported feeling stress when navigating away from approaching emergency vehicles with L&S, and the authors believed that drivers found the interactions with emergency vehicles inconvenient and potentially dangerous. (Saunders 2003) Legal: Wolfberg 1996 found that ambulance crashes are the most common cause of insurance claims greater than 10,000 dollars in EMS agencies
