I'm a German paramedic and love tracking information about the calIs I've attended, one of the reasons being to be able to make something similar to Spotify wrapped or other social Media recaps.

I have already shared this on r/EMS and someone suggested to also post it here.
As the graphics are designed with industry professionals as the intended audience there are probably quite a lot of things laymen won't understand.
Should there be any questions feel free to ask.

The Second slide shows the chief complaint when transporting patients. It does not include patients treated without transport to hospital and other calls similar to that.
The third slide shows what medication I gave and to how many people.

As this has been the most asked question so far: The data was collected by myself, manually entering information about each call after it was over using a custom data entry form in Memento Database, analyzed within the app and Excel.The Graphics were created using canva.

  1. Of the 10 CPR you performed how many survived if you don’t mind me asking?

  2. WOW! Nice work on this. Fascinating to see how your calls distribute. American here and looked for GSW on your Chief Complaint tab. Did not see it and assumed you were putting it under specific trauma. Now I am questioning my assumption. Really not one GSW?

  3. Sehr interessant! Just a question from a non-medical doctor here: why would EMS administer propofol? Being a German paramedic, I assume the data you collected is from locations in Germany. If yes, can you name what Kreis/Stadt/Land? I’d be curious to know how some of the stats change according to a large city versus a Dorf. Does the greater number of alcohol poisonings surprise you when compared to the number of drug overdoses? In the USA, I’d expect the drug overdoses to far excel alcohol poisonings, and that larger cities would have a greater problem than smaller regions. Thoughts?

  4. This is really interesting. Probably one of the best posts I’ve seen on here.

  5. The word “paramedicine” does make sense, but in the US the word makes me think of fringe medicine, quacks and snake oil peddlers rather than EMT practice
