EMERGENCY MEDICAL SERVICES
On January 23, 1987, Mr. Ed Browning, Representative of theOffice of Emergency Medical Services, met with the Board ofMedical Examiners to discuss matters of mutual concern.
Mr. Browning provided the following information on Bee StingCertif ications.
He reported that, since the North Carolina Legislature approvedthe bi 11 on Bee Sting certifications, the Board of MedicalExaminers, through the Office of Emergency Medical Services, hasapproved 6, 829 certifications and recertifications.
Mr. Browning also reported that, during the summer months, therewere several unconfirmed reports of lives saved as a result ofthese certifications in Pender and Brunswick Counties. He
further stated that there were approximately three similarunconfirmed reports: one in Yadkin County and two in the westernpart of the state. Mr. Browning indicated that there were nofigures available on the number of deaths which have occurred asa result of bee stings since the enactment of Bee Stinglegislation; but that, according to Claude Frazier, M. D. , priorto this legislation, four to six people per year died of beestings in the state of North Carolina.
Mr. Browning reported to the Board that East Carolina Universityhas trained quite a few individuals; but that physicians inBuncombe County have trained the 1arqest number of individualsfor Bee Sting certification. He indicated that Dr. Frazier has
17
not personally trained many individuals; that ten to fifteenphysicians train most of the applicants; and that there is nofee involved. Mr. Browning reported to the Board that theEMT-P's, EMT-AI's, , and EMT-I's administer most of the Bee Stingtreatment in North Carolina.
Dr. Citron stated that it is time to re-evaluate this program.He recommended referring the matter to the North CarolinaMedical Society with the suggestion that this organizationappoint a Committee of Allergists, Immunologists, etc. ; that theBoard request the Medical Society's Committee to recommendanswers to the following questions: ( 1) Should the program becontinued? (2) Should it be modified? Dr. Alexander suggestedto the Office of Emergency Medical Services that it review deathcertificates to obtain statistics on the number of deathsresulting from bee stings.
At the conclusion of the discussion of Bee Sting Certifications,Ed Browning updated the Board of Medical Examiners on the EastCarolina University Study Project. He indicated that the Officeof Emergency Medical Servicves should receive a report on thisproject in March. Mr. Browning reminded the Board members thatthe purpose of the study project is to determine whether theadministration of nitrous oxide in a pre-hospital setting byEMT-AI's can be effective.
Mr. Browning told the Board that five counties in the state:Dare, Currituck, Union, New Hanover, and Pitt, are now
functioning at the Advanced Intermediate level of life supportand that, to date, the medical directors involved are quitepleased with the results.
He then reviewed various categories in the EMS system for thebenefit of the new Board members. He stated that the NorthCarolina Medical Care Commission approves EMT's to provide basiclife support. He indicated that approximately forty-threecounties in the far eastern and western parts of North Carolinaare still functioning at this level. Mr. Browning stated thatEMT-I's can start IV fluids and utilize an esophageal airway.Dr. Alexander commented that the term "esophageal obduratorairway" is preferable to referring to an "esophageal airway. "
In explaining how EMT-AI's differ from EMT-I' s, Mr. Browningindicated that EMT-AI's have one-hundred hours of training abovethe educational level of EMT-I' s. This group of individuals candefibrillate and administer four cardiac drugs. Moreover, Mr.Browning informed the Board that EMT-P's spend two to threehundred more hours in training than do EMT-AI's. They canperform all functions of EMT-AI's plus EMT-P's may utilize amuch more extensive drug formulary approved by the Board ofMedical Examiners and the various physicians at sponsorhospitals.
18
Dr. Patterson stated, "It is not recommended to administerSodium Bicarbonate in cardiac arrest. In fact, use of thissubstance can be contraindicated. " Ed Browning commented, "EMS
wi 11 have to go through some regulatory changes to remove theadministration of this drug from the EMT-AI skills; however, thepresent policy is to discourage use of Sodium Bicarbonate. " EdBrowning further informed the Board of Medical Examiners thatboth EMT-AI's and EMT-P's can intubate.
Ed Browning next discussed the Mobile Intensive Care Nurses;they may issue orders to all EMT personnel. He indicated thatreapproval requirements for MICN's include ten callssupervised by the medical director of the program, continuingeducation, experience on a field ambulance, ALS certification orpassing an examination administered by the Office of EmergencyMedical Services. Mr. Browning stated that the requirement tocomplete ten calls supervised by a physician is difficult toachieve. He mentioned the example of an MICN's going to work ata sponsor hospital, working at the site for six months, becomingdisabled, or deciding to change employment. During this MobileIntensive Care Nurse's first six months of employment, he or shemay have only completed three or four calls. At a later date,if this nurse decides to return to work, he or she may not havecompleted the required ten calls supervised by a medicaldirector; therefore, the nurse cannot be reapproved as an MICN.Ed Browning told the Board that, in cases such as the one hedescribed, it is the recommendation of EMS to allow the medicaldirector/physician to develop ten simulated scenarios approvedby the Office of Emergency Medical Services, supervise the MICN
during these simulated calls, and offer the nurse an opportunityfor reapproval without the necessity of repeating the entiretraining program.
Ed Browning also reported that the number of MICN's isdecreasing in North Carolina.
On January 23, 1987, the Board of Medical Examiners unanimouslyadopted a motion made by Dr. Citron and seconded by Dr.Patterson that the Board refer the matter of Bee StingCertifications to the North Carolina Medical Society; that theBoard ask this group's advice on the subject; that the Boardsend the Medical Society all available statistics on the numberof both Bee Sting Certifications and Recertifications since theprogram's inception; that the Board request the North CarolinaMedical Society's opinion on the validity of this program,taking into consideration the number of deaths, if any, per yearfrom bee stings, the dangers involved in administration ofEpinephrine by non-physicians, as well as the question oftime elapsing between the bee stings and the administration ofEpinephrine; and that the Board of Medical Examiners request theNorth Carolina Medical Society to provide the Board with areport on Bee Sting Certifications.
On January 23, 1987, the Board of Medical Examiners unanimouslyadopted a motion made by Dr. Daniel and seconded by Dr. Henrythat, when MICN's who have not completed the tenphysician-supervised calls requirement for certification have abreak in employment, the Board of Medical Examiners approve anextension of one year during which time the MICN must complywith this ten physician-supervised calls requirement; but thatthe Board permit a Mobile Intensive Care Nurse to use thisextension only once.
On January 23, 1987, the Board of Medical Examiners unanimouslyadopted a motion made by Dr. Citron and seconded by Dr. Danielthat the Board accept the recommendations of the Office ofEmergency Medical Services and approve 114 initial ALSapplications, 106 ALS recertification applications, includingthree duplicates, and 223 Bee Sting Certifications.
