METHODS: The Medical Health Care Organization (MHCO) at Roskilde Festival 2016 (Denmark) collected prospective data on disposable medical supply use and injuries and illnesses presenting to the MHCO.
RESULTS: A total of 12,830 patient presentations were registered by the MHCO and a total of 104 different types of disposable medical supplies were used by the MHCO from June 25, 2016 through July 3, 2016. Out of 12,830 cases, 594 individuals (4.6%) had a potential or manifest medical emergency, 6,670 (52.0%) presented with minor injuries, and 5,566 (43.4%) presented with minor illnesses. The overall patient presentation rate (PPR) was 99.0/1,000 attendees and the transport-to-hospital rate (TTHR) was 2.1/1,000 attendees. For medical emergencies, the most frequently used supplies were aluminum rescue blankets (n = 627), non-rebreather masks (n = 121), and suction catheters for an automatic suction unit (ASU) for airway management (n = 83). Most used diagnostic equipment were blood glucose test strips (n = 1,155), electrocardiogram electrodes (n = 960), and urinary test strips (n = 400). The most frequently used personal protection equipment were non-sterile gloves (n = 1,185 pairs) and sterile gloves (n = 189).
CONCLUSIONS: This study demonstrates a substantial use of disposable medical supplies at a major music festival. The results provide aid for planning similar mass-gathering (MG) events.
方法:2016年罗斯基勒音乐节(丹麦)的医疗保健组织(MHCO)收集了向MHCO提出的一次性医疗用品使用以及伤害和疾病的前瞻性数据。
结果:2016年6月25日至2016年7月3日,MHCO共登记了12,830例患者报告,MHCO共使用了104种不同类型的一次性医疗用品。在12830个案例中,594人(4.6%)有潜在或明显的医疗紧急情况,6,670(52.0%)受轻伤,5,566人(43.4%)患有轻微疾病。总体患者就诊率(PPR)为99.0/1,000名参与者,住院率(TTHR)为2.1/1,000名参与者。对于医疗紧急情况,最常用的用品是铝制救援毯(n=627),非呼吸器面罩(n=121),和用于气道管理的自动抽吸单元(ASU)的抽吸导管(n=83)。最常用的诊断设备是血糖试纸(n=1,155),心电图电极(n=960),和尿试纸(n=400)。最常用的个人防护设备是非无菌手套(n=1,185双)和无菌手套(n=189)。
结论:这项研究表明一次性医疗用品在一个大型音乐节上的大量使用。结果为计划类似的群众聚集(MG)事件提供了帮助。
