How often is the ICEMA Protocol updated?

The ICEMA Protocol is updated periodically, based on new evidence and best practices. This approach allows the protocol to remain relevant and effective as advances in medical science, technology, and emergency response strategies evolve. By integrating the latest research findings and best practices, the protocol can continuously improve patient care and outcomes in emergency medical situations.

Updates based solely on predetermined intervals, such as annually or every five years, may not be conducive to adapting to rapid advancements in healthcare and evolving circumstances in emergency management. Relying only on major emergencies for updates could lead to outdated practices and standards, potentially compromising patient safety and care quality. Hence, the periodic review process is essential for maintaining a high standard of emergency medical protocols.
