IRVING, Texas 鈥� The (NEMSQA) has published its inaugural NEMSQA Measure Report, 鈥淓nhancing Airway Management One Measure at a Time.鈥�
In collaboration with experts and EMS agencies nationwide, NEMSQA is leading the second National EMS Quality Improvement Partnership (EQuIP), called the Airway Management Collaborative, to effectively implement the new NEMSQA airway measures.
This initial focus on airway management aligns strategically with key initiatives advancing prehospital airway care, including the EMS Quality Improvement Partnership (EQuIP) Airway Management Collaborative and the National Association of State EMS Officials鈥� Prehospital Airway Management Evidence-Based Guideline.
The report begins with NEMSQA 鈥渘ot satisfied with the state of airway management safety in EMS,鈥� and that the data shows that there can be improvement in the industry.
Dr. Michael Redlener, board president, captured the vision for this initiative, stating, 鈥淯nderstanding the national performance in key clinical quality and safety measures is the first step to improving our care of patients. This report should empower EMS leaders across the country to use a data-driven, patient-centered approach to improve care in their agency, region, or beyond. Without data like this to tell us our current state, we can ignore the problem 鈥� now, it鈥檚 harder to ignore.鈥�
