title: [Pre-hospital care].
abstract: Organisatory and therapeutic characteristics for selected pre-hospital medical treatment systems are described. It is emphasized that all of the links in the therapeutic chain must function optimally to achieve effective treatment of acute disease and injuries. The importance of rapid decision-making by highly qualified medical staff is emphasized. On the basis of experience from Denmark and from abroad, a model for up-to-date pre-hospital treatment in Denmark is outlined.
