Each year the Call for Abstracts highlights EMS research from around the globe. Abstracts are received from EMS providers, clinicians, educators, administrators, and students from all over the nation and abroad. A peer-review process determines which authors are invited to present their study at the national conferences of our partners EMS World and NAEMSE. We are proud to present this year's abstracts to a global audience online.
