🏥 🚑 Calling All Emergency and Trauma Nurse Colleagues! 🚑 🏥 I am conducting research on Emergency and Trauma Nurse Readiness for Pre-Hospital Whole Blood Transfusions and need your valuable input. Please take a few minutes to complete the following survey and share this repost! Survey Link: https://lnkd.in/eMNgjvfq It takes less than 5 minutes! This past week, the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) released the 2025 Proposed Physician Fee Schedule, which includes proposed reimbursement for pre-hospital whole blood. This is incredibly exciting news! Recent research published by Levy, Grafinkel, May, et al., in the Journal of the American College of Emergency Physicians Open (April 2024) highlights that as of March 2024, about 99% of EMS systems in the United States do not carry whole blood products. This proposal is a significant step forward and could lead to faster adoption of lifesaving pre-hospital whole blood treatment across the country. We would like to know if Emergency and Trauma Nurses are ready to receive pre-hospital patients receiving whole blood. Hospitals, States, and Regional Trauma Systems across the country have been striving to implement whole blood initiatives, particularly for emergency and trauma patients who need lifesaving pre-hospital whole blood for hemorrhagic shock. Studies have shown that treating both military and civilian patients in hemorrhagic shock with whole blood transfusions improves patient survival rates compared to those who receive blood component transfusions (Spinella PC et al., 2009; Nessen SC et al., 2013; Hazelton JP et al., 2022). Clinical data supports that rapid administration of whole blood in the prehospital setting can increase survival rates by up to 60% and decrease the need for additional blood products within the first 24 hours by 7% (Torres CM et al., 2023; Brill JB et al., 2022; Guyette FX et al., 2021). Help us understand Emergency and Trauma Nurses' readiness to receive pre-hospital whole blood patients by sharing your insights through this survey. https://lnkd.in/eMNgjvfq Thank you for your time and dedication to improving patient outcomes! #EmergencyNursing #TraumaNursing #PreHospitalCare #WholeBloodTransfusion #PatientSafety #NurseReadiness #TraumaCare #EMS #HealthcareInnovation
