Proposal for Change (PFC)
every center who use the protocol can submit a change
• „Readers of the Council“
• subcommittee reviews and evaluates all PFC’s
• formulate the finaly proposals
• forwards Proposals to Voting Council
• commission research or request clinical data, ...
before a new version is coming …
• „Cultural Meeting“
• in every language a group of users verify the protocol again, so that it works for this language

Why Evidence-Based Practice Matters
• Improves patient care and reduces unnecessary errors/negative outcomes
• Reassures practitioner, patient, and family members that the best care was provided,
even if outcome is negative
• Increases community and patient confidence in care providers when they know EBP1 is
being applied
• Practitioners/clinicians feel more prepared for situations—more confidence and less
stress
• Reproducible care and reduced bias: all callers receive the same standard of care

Individual Clinical Expertise: Examples
Aspirin (ASA Diagnostic Tool and Instructions):
• Input from George M. Rodgers, MD, PhD, Professor of Medicine at University of Utah, on
differences between Aspirin and blood thinners
• Tool developed in collaboration with Joseph Ornato, MD, FACP, FACC, FACEP; Chairman of Dept.
of Emergency Medicine at Virginia Commonwealth U and Medical Director of Richmond
Ambulance Authority
Not Alert (in progress)
• Practitioner/clinicial (EMD and Medical Director) input has to led to the development of three
studies with international scope (Brazil, Australia, UK, USA, involved)
• Testing varied phrasings of “not alert” to determine is most accurate
• Individual EMD input/evaluation is a key metric in at least one of the studies, along with
hospital/EMS outcomes

Individual Clinical Expertise: Practitioner-Engaged Research
Practitioner-Engaged Research assumes that individual professionals (in this case, EMDs)
have clinical and hands-on knowledge that is important to generating and making sense of
research findings.
To increase practitioner-engaged research in EMD, the IAED is running an annual research
workshop (soon to be online and available for international attendees!)
Three practitioner (EMD/EMD-Q) studies already published from it:

Patient Values and Expectations: Examples
Ongoing study:
Caller Expectations of Emergency Dispatch in Diverse Communities
• Focus group methodology
• Working with 6 different communities in Utah—including Pacific Islander, American
Indian, Hispanic, refugee (mostly African), African American, and LGBTQ
• Better understanding their expectations, needs, and values, as well as their experiences
calling for emergency services and their barriers to calling
• Creating training for EMDs and may integrate some of the findings into protocol to
reflect the needs of communities we serve
• Developing a toolkit so others can do similar studies in their own communities

Recommendations
• First of all, use a protocol, because you should never forget anything – you only have
one change to make it right
• Do not make mistakes again that have already been discovered and eliminated
somewhere in the world
• Pay attention to which workgroups working behind a protocol, to make sure that it is
not a one man show
• Use an Evidence Based Protocol, because this is the only way to do the really right
things

Conclusions and Recommendations
• The MPDS absolutely meets all three elements of the definition of evidence-based
practice
• EBP makes the protocol not only the standard of care, but gives both EMDs and our
communities faith in the service they are being provided
• The IAED continues to deepen our work in all three areas of EBP and will continue to
publish and report on our findings
