Background:
Rescue service interventions for patients with behavioral disorders are quite common. The aim of this study is to analyze interventions of Polish State Fire Service units in incidents involving health threats to victims with behavioral disorders.
Materials And Methods:
This study used data from the Decision Support System of the State Fire Service. Events in the period of 1 January 2020 at 00.00-31 December 2022 at 23:59 were used for analysis.
Results:
In the 2020-2022 period, firefighters were dispatched 321 times to interventions concerning injured individuals with behavioral disorders. Isolated emergency medical incidents most often concerned mental disorders (23%) and least often concerned suicide attempts (8%) (p = 0.033). It was shown that the duration of the intervention (emergency care time) was significantly longer in the case of interventions related to the autumn period (p < 0.001).
Conclusions:
Our results describe parameters associated with behavioral health responses within the Polish fire service.
