Characteristics of trauma patients treated by Helicopter Emergency Medical Service and transported to the hospital by helicopter or ambulance
The current dataset is, after some modifications, suitable to provide a comprehensive overview of patients treated by HEMS in the Netherlands. A predictive model could be developed using this dataset, which should include factors such as the patient's location, age, distance to the hospital, physician on duty, mechanism of injury and overall injury severity.
