The population is well aware today that the emergency doctor holds a strong position in the field of preclinical care. The time of onset of expert care of the emergency patient is of great significance in regard to survival and prevention of further damage. ⋯ In respect to content and form of training a proposal has been made representing a minimal requirement. It should be assured in modern day ambulance care that only qualified physicians participate who are familiar with the special situations encountered in emergency medicine.

Comparative Study[Therapy of orthostatic dysregulation. Comparative studies on anti-hypotensive sympathomimetics with a tilt-table test].
In 7 patients suffering from orthostatic hypotension the early behaviour of arterial mean blood pressure was studied in the tilting table experiment under influence of etilefrine, norfenefrine, gepefrine (D-(+)-1-(3-hydroxyphenyl)-2-aminopropan-(2R, 3R)-hydrogentartrat) and of its I-isomere. Significant improvement of early orthostatic disregulation of the arterial pressure could be only observed under gepefrine. Amelioration seems to be induced by sensitization of the pressoreceptors.
