The project will involve many phases, the first of which is to obtain accurate, timely and actionable information on why Ornge is being cancelled from trauma scene calls. To better understand the reasons behind trauma scene call cancellation, Ornge is beginning a project with the intent of improving timely access to trauma care for severely injured patients. Unfortunately, the reason why Ornge was cancelled was unclear over half the time. It also found this resulted in an average delay of 3.5 hours.

Sometimes, however that system doesn’t work as well as it could.Ī recent study of Ornge scene requests found that 35 per cent of trauma scene calls destined for Toronto trauma centres were cancelled, but yet 25 per cent of those patients were still eventually transported to a trauma centre. These patients rely on an air ambulance scene response. In fact, 40 per cent of patients in Ontario live further than a 60-minute drive to a trauma centre. However, Canadian geography can present a barrier to prompt access to care. For many patients, this involves bypassing a local hospital to go directly to a trauma centre. The pre-hospital care system and emergency medical services therefore are an essential component within a trauma system and there is an incredible amount of coordination required to ensure that severely injured patients get appropriate care. It’s hard to talk about trauma systems without mentioning the concept of the “Golden Hour”, where there is a goal to get severely injured patients to a trauma centre within 60 minutes of injury. Likewise, a delay to receiving care at a trauma centre can result in patient harm. Patients who are treated at a trauma centre have better odds of survival. Though, there are many circumstances where an keeping an air ambulance responding may provide benefit to the patient. Whichever the reason, Ornge is no longer requested to transport the patient at that time. During this process, or often times during the launch of the helicopter, Ornge may be cancelled for multiple reasons, some of which may include death, injuries not requiring air ambulance support or the patient has been transported directly to the hospital by the local paramedic service. The pilot will accept or decline based on weather and safety. They will then contact the pilots of the closest and available helicopter to conduct a weather check to ensure it is safe to fly.
