Medical Emergency Calls clinical trials

Phase 1: Researchers test a new drug or treatment in a small group of people for the first time to evaluate its safety, determine a safe dosage range, and identify side effects.
Phase 2: The drug or treatment is given to a larger group of people to see if it is effective and to further evaluate its safety.
Phase 3: The drug or treatment is given to large groups of people to confirm its effectiveness, monitor side effects, compare it to commonly used treatments, and collect information that will allow the drug or treatment to be used safely.
Phase 4: Studies are done after the drug or treatment has been marketed to gather information on the drug's effect in various populations and any side effects associated with long-term use.

Social Inequalities in Emergency Call and Emergency Response Patterns

Start date: December 2014
Phase: N/A
Study type: Observational

Background: Inequality in access to healthcare is a challenge internationally. Despite that medical emergency calls can be considered as access point to pre-hospital emergency care and hospital admission in emergency situations, no data on inequality in access to healthcare through emergency calls is reported in the international literature. Study aims: The aim of this study is two-fold: 1. to evaluate the association between socio-economic characteristics of citizens and first-time emergency call in the Capital Region of Denmark 2. to evaluate the association between socio-economic characteristics of citizens with an emergency call and the priority level of the response provided by the emergency medical dispatch center in the Capital Region of Denmark. Method: Observational register based study of adult citizens in the Capital Region of Denmark. Educational level, household income and employment are used as socioeconomic indicators. The unique civil registration number will be used to link data from the Emergency Medical Dispatch Center with data from the Civil Registration System, Danish registers on personal labor market affiliation, the Danish Populations Education Register, the Danish Income Statistics Registry and the national patient registry. Logistic regression models will be used for the association between socio economic indicators and first time emergency calls and the association between socioeconomic indicators and the priority level of the response provided.
