[Basic and advanced life support units in Spain: analysis of the current situation].
To describe the type and number of emergency care ambulances integrated in the Emergency Medical System in the Spanish autonomous communities and to calculate their relationship with the assigned population. ⋯ There are significant differences in the calculated rates of emergency care resources of autonomous regions over their population and area. No relation was found with the geodemographic idiosyncrasies of each territory. These differences could be caused by heterogeneity in the management of EMS or other factors not considered in this work.
