Decision-Making Frameworks for Vehicle Extrication in Prehospital Trauma Care: A Scoping Review
Vehicle extrication is a critical prehospital phase for patients trapped in motor vehicle collisions. Historically driven by rigid technical protocols, recent evidence suggests a shift toward clinically oriented, multidisciplinary decision-making. This scoping review aims to synthesize current evidence on extrication frameworks and their impact on clinical care.
