Does a mobile intensive care unit improve time to care and out-of-hospital resuscitation rates in patients with myocardial infarction?
A mobile intensive care unit in a rural setting reduces the delay to initiation of intensive care for myocardial infarction and enables successful out-of-hospital resuscitation of ventricular fibrillation.
Kernohan et al. (1968) studied this question.
