About this Research Topic
Disaster medicine is an increasingly important area that intersects emergency medicine with disaster management. Emergency medicine research spans time-sensitive emergency care in the broadest possible range of patients, multiple and individual organ systems, emergency medical services, regionalized healthcare systems, and population health. Key areas of research focus on the discovery and application of time-critical diagnostics, decision-making, treatments, and policies that save lives, prevent or reduce disability, and restore human health.
This Research Topic is dedicated to collecting forward-looking articles composed by the Chief Editors of the journal's sections. These contributions will identify and reflect upon what could be dubbed the “grand challenges” in Disaster and Emergency Medicine research in the following specialties:
• Disaster Medicine
• Pediatric Emergency Medicine
• Emergency Health Services
• Resuscitation and Cardiac Emergency Medicine
