Risk assessment of pre-hospital trauma airway management by anaesthesiologists using the predictive Bayesian approach by Nakstad Anders R, Lossius Hans, Sollid Stephen JM, Aven Terje, Søreide Eldar

“…</p> <p>Method</p> <p>We performed a risk assessment according to the predictive Bayesian approach, in a typical anaesthesiologist-manned Norwegian helicopter emergency medical service (HEMS). The main focus of the risk assessment was the event where a patient arrives in the emergency department without ETI despite a pre-hospital indication for it.…”

Refining estimates of availability bias to improve assessments of the conservation status of an endangered dolphin. by Federico Sucunza, Daniel Danilewicz, Marta Cremer, Artur Andriolo, Alexandre N Zerbini

“…Aerial surveys are considered the most effective method to estimate abundance of this species, but many existing estimates have been considered unreliable because they lack proper estimation of correction factors for visibility bias. In this study, helicopter surveys were conducted to determine surfacing-diving intervals of franciscanas and to estimate availability for aerial platforms. …”
