Current development situation of emergency departments in domestic general hospitals and problems to be solved / 中华医院管理杂志

ABSTRACT

In the past 20 years, emergency medicine in China has witnessed rapid development and emergency care has contributed considerably to safeguarding people's life and health. The emergency departments in most hospitals have completed the transition from being dependent to being supportive and some hospitals have set up autonomous emergency departments. The functions and business scope of emergency care have gradually been clarified. However, some problems remain to be solved in such aspects of emergency care as training, management, scientific research, and professional promotion.
