🌍The Maltese Emergency Nurses’ Association is the first international organisation to adopt the IMPACT Extrication Course!
Their nurses deliver prehospital & ED care, making this a powerful step towards safer, evidence-based post-collision response.

BASICS Scotland becomes the first independent org to adopt our Extrication Course for all responders.
A brilliant team supporting prehospital care in remote & rural areas — leading the way in post-collision response.

🚨 New paper in BMC Emergency Medicine!
Adding a simple 📸 photographic aid to verbal instructions improved bystanders’ ability to identify a safe site for intramuscular TXA in a simulated trauma scenario (88% vs 63%).
Early TXA saves lives #TXA

🌍🚑 At #WRC2025 all 36 teams from 20 countries included self-extrication patients in scenarios.
Real progress and fantastic to see the EXIT project principles adopted by our partners @WorldRescueOrg 🙌

🚨 New paper out! 🚨
Our scoping review maps the evidence on triage of road traffic casualties – with a focus on the role of bystanders.
Findings:
🟢 Evidence is limited inconsistent 🟢 Clearer guidance training needed
Free and open access: sjtrem.biomedcentral.com/art…
1/ 🚨 New research from our Bystander Project 🚨
We asked: Which injuries interventions should be prioritised for patients trapped after motor vehicle collisions?
Our Delphi consensus study is now published!
📖 Free & open access: sjtrem.biomedcentral.com/art…#roadsafety
6/ This study provides:
🧭 A framework for prehospital SOPs
📚 Guidance for training & triage ⚖️ A mandate to reduce inequities in trauma care
It’s another step forward for safer roads and better post-collision care.
7/ 🙏 Huge thanks to the @TheRSTrust for funding this work, and to the many subject matter experts who contributed.
Together we’re building evidence to transform care for trapped casualties.
