May 21 - 23 | Applications Due December 31, 2023
The ESO/PCRF Research Forum is ideal for front-line clinicians and clinical leaders with innate curiosity and an itch to launch their next (or first!) EMS research project. The Forum matches participants with clinical mentors, methodologists, and statisticians to accelerate EMS research.
Learn the basics of EMS research, explore required data elements, work with a clinical mentor and statistician, start to develop a research abstract for submission, and more.

Adverse Safety Encounters in Pediatric Patients
Most of our pediatric patients cared for and transported by EMS have low acuity and result in very favorable outcomes. Despite this, there are still adverse safety encounters experienced by EMS providers while caring for pediatric patients.
Join this month’s PCRF Journal Club as we review a study that evaluated the frequency, type, and potential harm from these adverse safety encounters across 15 EMS Agencies in 3 states. Register now!
