To-do list for Wikipedia:WikiProject Medicine/Emergency medicine and EMS task force: edit · history · watch · refresh · Updated 2019-01-23

~~Fix EMD vs~~ 'EXPAND Advanced Medical Priority Dispatch System using cites (AMPDS) Medicellis (talk) 00:38, 3 July 2008 (UTC)
~~Create page ITLS (International Trauma Life Support). Formally known as BTLS (Basic Trauma Life Support)~~ Stub created. WarwulfX (talk) 21:35, 19 March 2012 (UTC)
Expand Capnography - becoming the "gold" standard for EMS
Rework Advanced cardiac life support. In desperate need of updating and rewrite. Medicellis (talk) 12:00, 22 July 2008 (UTC). It's probably best to include the ACLS algorithms, possibly in a flow chart if someone has the wiki editing know-how. AZDub (talk) 16:08, 15 December 2008 (UTC)
Must not be many PALS provider/instructors on here Pediatric Advanced Life Support (PALS) needs expanding and re-write!! Medicellis (talk) 12:04, 22 July 2008 (UTC)
Create the ~~Mass casualty incident~~ page, it's probably appropriate to EMS AZDub (talk) 23:38, 3 January 2009 (UTC) Done, and though it wasn't ready it is live now. 0038, 11 June 2009 Frmatt (talk) 04:38, 11 June 2009 (UTC)
I don't think it's a super top priority, but expanding National Association of Emergency Medical Technicians and creating the ~~National Collegiate Emergency Medical Services Foundation~~, ~~International Association of Flight Paramedics~~ and other pages for EMS personnel organizations would be good for this taskforce AZDub (talk) 03:59, 20 February 2009 (UTC)
expand National Collegiate Emergency Medical Services Foundation Medic117 (talk) 19:39, 28 April 2009 (UTC)
Update to the new National Curricula and change EMT Types to EMR,EMT,AEMT,Paramedic
- Rewrote Paramedics in the United States to accurately reflect the national scope of practice per NHTSA and NREMT. Some cleanup needed. WarwulfX (talk) 00:54, 12 March 2012 (UTC)

the first task of this task force is to define what you mean by Medical Emergencies (Pathology, Services and Caregivers) and what is to be called Emergency Medical Services in English Wikipedia, what are the traductions in other languages because babelism or english UK and US linguistic colonialism can not more be pursued in Wikipedia if you want any progress of Wikipedia in this area of medical care . I hope that english Wikipedia aim is to communicate between languages and countries in international translatable english and not in local jargon like in the rest of medical knowledge publications for getting mutual information from other countries Public Health and Medical progresses. To stay in bilateral despises and censuring is not profitable and Wikipedia present "editors" , (I know that they have a difficult task) They have to be controlled by good level specialists in this EMS domain (it is also difficult). Today Wikipedia is fled by them and they are excluded by editorial laxism of delirium or jargonophasia. I will aid you if you define and control the two terms of Medical Emergencies and Emergency Medical Services and I agree with your and I can translate in French, Spanish and Portuguese. Miguel Martinez Almoyna (talk) 17:51, 18 August 2010 (UTC).
