Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

In the anesthesiologist-manned mobile emergency car unit an analyzing device for blood gas testing is present since 2014. This study will determine if a prehospital arterial blood gas helps the doctor to make more precise diagnosis prehospitally. Furthermore it will be determined if the doctors find this device helpful in assessing and treating patients with affected consciousness.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Take arterial blood gas

Patients with impaired consciousness are randomised into having analysed a arterial blood gas.

With arterial blood gas, parameters not being normal can be corrected

Intervention Type OTHER

If arterial blood gas is analysed answers provide the possibility to make more accurate diagnosis and treat specific abnormal parameters (e.g. electrolytes, oxygenation and so forth).

Do not take arterial blood gas

Patients with impaired consciousness are randomised into not having analysed a arterial blood gas.

No interventions assigned to this group
