An ambulance, as its name implies, is a car to help patients. The ambulance on the ambulance is written backwards, which means that the driver in front can directly see the word ambulance on the front through the rearview mirror, so as to avoid it quickly. With the flashing of warning lights and the ringing of sirens, there is no doubt that an ambulance arrived at the emergency call site. All the main roads will be magically released for it. Drivers can drive on the edge of the driveway, on the sidewalk, or even in the opposite direction-anywhere, as long as the ambulance can pass. Like firefighters who go to the scene of a fire, rescuers need to race against time, because it may mean the difference between life and death.
Telephone rescue: most cities and counties in China have opened the medical emergency telephone number 120. Emergency call 120 will be answered by a special person 24 hours a day. After receiving the call, you can send an ambulance and emergency personnel immediately, which is the most convenient and quick method. In some areas where 120 has not been opened, hospitals have also announced special emergency telephone numbers to the public, so patients can choose the hospital they want to call. It is worth mentioning that in addition to 120, there are also 999 and 120 emergency numbers of Beijing Emergency Center, and 999 is the emergency number of Beijing Red Cross Emergency Rescue Center.
1 10 telephone help: many cities in China have implemented the networking of public security 1 10 and health 120. You can also call 1 10 to get help, especially for criminal cases, disputes and accidents. 165438.
Great changes have taken place in ambulances in the past 40 years. Until the end of 1960s, the main task of ambulances was to transport people from the scene of the accident to the hospital as soon as possible. The space inside the car is very narrow, with only some very basic first aid equipment. However, since then, ambulances and ambulance personnel have changed.
Modern ambulances are relatively spacious, and ambulance personnel have enough space to rescue patients on the way to the hospital. Modern ambulances also carry a large number of bandages and external products, which can help stop bleeding, clean wounds and prevent infection. The car is also equipped with splints and brackets, which are used to fix the patient's broken limbs and avoid aggravating the injury of the patient's neck and spine. The car is also equipped with oxygen, portable ventilator and cardiac pacing defibrillator. Most ambulances also have patient monitors that can monitor the patient's pulse and breathing on the way to the emergency room. These test data can be sent to the hospital by radio.
Many modern ambulance personnel are professional first-aid personnel, especially those who are responsible for high-risk occasions such as large-scale sports events and busy sections of expressways. They can carry out high-level first aid treatment. Their professional rescue at the scene and on the way can often save the lives of the injured. They are trained to diagnose patients' injuries, so they can transmit data by radio in advance, and suggest which medical staff and technicians the hospital should prepare and prepare corresponding surgical instruments.
