title: [Emergency medical system in Bellinzona (South Switzerland): a sensible, affordable model with use of ambulance and helicopter].
abstract: Use of a mobile coronary care unit is a well recognized institution, but it often fails because of excessive costs. By means of an emergency physician working in the intensive care unit we have organized an economical rescue system by both helicopter and ambulance meeting the requirements of pre- and hospital treatment of the patients.
