Prehospital Aspirin Delivery: Emergency Medical Dispatcher-Directed versus Emergency Medical Services Field Provider-Directed Aspirin Administration
It was found that DDAA provides measurable time savings in ASA delivery to patients. Further studies will need to assess if the reduction of ASA delivery time by EMDs has the potential to improve overall care and survival for patients. The study identified beneficial new knowledge for possible future enhancements to medical dispatch protocols and for EMS providers.
