Abstract
The statistics demonstrate that giving the qualified first aid at the scene before admission is is significantly less frequently than would be expected.
Medical care at the pre-hospital stage is of particular importance in cases of manifest circulatory and respiration disturbances, clinical death, bleeding, fractures, when a failure or delay to render assistance quickly leads to a significant deterioration of the body condition and even death.
The majority of the victims die at the pre-hospital stage, resulting in high importance of qualified first aid in the first moments after injury
