Look forward to the construction of trauma-focused emergency medical rescue system based on successful fighting against the outbreak of novel coronavirus disease-2019 in China / 中华创伤杂志

ABSTRACT

Emergency medical rescue is an indispensable part of the national public health system and social security system. It is not only the direct embodiment of practicing the concept of people first and life first, but also an important manifestation to measure the emergency management level and ability of the government. The health hazards caused by public emergencies are mainly "injuries" and "diseases". With the outbreak of novel coronavirus disease-2019 (COVID-19), the construction of "disease-focused" emergency medical rescue system has made great progress in China, which in turn offers valuable experiences for the construction of high-level "trauma-focused "emergency medical rescue system. In this paper, the author reviews the development of the emergency medical rescue system in China, summarizes the experiences in fighting against COVID-19 and analyzes the development of the "trauma-focused" emergency medical rescue system, hoping to play a positive role in strengthening China′s emergency medical rescue system in the new era and better serving the grand blueprint of the rejuvenation of the Chinese nation.
