Abstract：
BACKGROUND: Music festivals are popular events often including camping at the festival site. A mix of music, alcohol, drugs, and limited hygiene increases health risks. This study aimed to assess the use of medical supplies at a major music festival, thereby aiding planning at similar events in the future.
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.

摘要：
背景：音乐节是受欢迎的活动，通常包括在音乐节现场露营。混合的音乐，酒精,毒品,有限的卫生会增加健康风险。这项研究旨在评估大型音乐节上医疗用品的使用情况，从而帮助规划未来的类似事件。
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。
