About Errors in the Diagnosis of Diseases at the Pre-hospital Stage
The main cause of mortality in emergency conditions (myocardial infarction, neurotrauma, etc.) is the untimely provision of emergency care at the pre-hospital stage (up to 60% of all cases). Severe complications leading to a fatal outcome in emergency conditions in the first hours and days from the onset of the disease are mostly associated with incorrect diagnosis and, therefore, incorrect tactics of medical workers during the initial treatment of patients (1.8%). They are often caused by the erased clinical picture of a particular condition.
