- Ambulance personnel often meet people in a crisis situation that requires a readiness to act, and which takes for granted a broad knowledge in caring, together with an ability to size up the circumstances in each separate incident. The afflicted individual's first contact with a medic in an emergency situation is very often ambulance personnel and this first meeting can involve incidents that may radically change the existing state of things for the ill or injured and, maybe, even for near relatives. Sometimes these situations can lead to threats and acts of violence aimed at the ambulance staff. The aim of the study was to describe how ambulance personnel perceive, how they are subjected to, and are influenced by, threats and violence in their day-to-day work. The empirical study was descriptive and consisted of a questionnaire comprising a total of 13 questions. Answers from the 66 respondents revealed that 53 persons (80.3%) were subjected to threats and/or violence. The majority were of the opinion that the relationship between the paramedic and the patient was most certainly affected when threat or violence is a part of the situation. The study shows that many ambulance personnel have, on occasion, been subjected to one or several threats and/or situations involving the use of violence. The majority regarded this as an unpleasant experience.

- Working at a major accident site is a complex matter where knowledge from various fields must be put into practice. In addition, the different situations at emergency and disaster sites place a variety of demands on personnel, equipment and organization. The aim of the present study is to investigate how the ambulance personnel perceived their own action and the functioning of the whole emergency organization at a major accident site (large discotheque fire) in 1998. Working from a list obtained from the fire department, a questionnaire with 57 questions was sent to the personnel (n = 36) who had participated at the accident site either as ambulance crew members or as members of a medical team sent out from the hospital. The response rate was 80 per cent. Despite the extreme situation, most of the ambulance personnel involved were satisfied with their own preparedness as well as the medical and nursing care performed at the site. Those who where not satisfied reported that the main reason for dissatisfaction was lack of time to calm and comfort people who were not injured or had only minor injuries. The need of more medical support for the medical team members at the site was also emphasized with regard to the care of the severely injured. The ambulance service crews from the suburbs, in comparison with the local city rescue service, were, in general, less satisfied with the co-operation from other rescue units.

- Prehospital akutsjukvård är ett lite utforskat område nationellt och internationellt. Innehållet i den här artikeln är hämtat från den första svenska avhandlingen som behandlar området. Två övergripande syften med den akademiska avhandlingen var att beskriva utvecklingen inom prehospital akutsjukvård och hur situationen är idag. Två andra övergripande syften var att beskriva sjuksköterskors upplevelser och erfarenheter av arbete på en större skadeplats samt hur ambulanssjukvårdare och sjuksköterskor uppfattar sin egen funktion respektive den andra yrkesgruppens funktion i prehospital akutsjukvård. Avhandling beskriver området prehospital akutsjukvård utifrån, studerandes kunskaper i katastrofsjukvård (studie I), sjuksköterskors upplevelser och erfarenheter av arbetet på en större skadeplats (studie II), ambulanssjukvårdares, läkares och sjuksköterskors syn på fältet och de olika yrkesgruppernas roll och funktion (studie III, IV), samt en kartläggning av utvecklingen inom området prehospital akutsjukvård fram till år 1997 (studie V). Föreliggande artikel avser att ge en sammanfattning av studie III, IV och V i avhandlingen. För en mer utförlig beskrivning av varje delstudie, se referenser för de olika artiklarna. Varje delstudie har också ett stort antal referenser som kan vara värdefulla för de som är speciellt intresserade av området.
