dc.description.abstractAim: The aim of the study is to evaluate the Emergency Medical Services (EMS) cases in some mass gatherings held in Turkey between the years of 2015-2018 and to compare the patient presentation rate (PPR) and transport to hospital rate (TTHR) rates of different types of mass gatherings (MGs). Materials and Methods: The research is a descriptive cross-sectional epidemiological study. The population of the study consists of 112 EMS records of the Commemoration Events of the Canakkale Land Warfare (CECLW), Zeytinli Rock Festival (ZRF), Summer Deaflympics (DEAFLYMPICS) and European Youth Olympic Winter Festival (EYOF) organizations held in Turkey between the years of 2015-2018. Results: The hours of 12:00 p.m. - 05:59 p.m. (34.0%, n=161). 57.4% (n=272) of the cases were due to medical 474 EMS cases were examined in the study. 49.5% (n=235) of the cases were in DEAFLYMPICS and 57.6% (n=273) of the cases were male. The mean age of the cases was 30.3 +/- 16.5 (minimum: 0, maximum: 92). Most cases occurred between reasons. According to the triage codes, 57.7% (n=153) of the cases were green, 32.3% (n=153) were red and 15.8% (n=75) were yellow. When the results of the cases were analyzed, 54.0% (n=256) of the cases were transferred to hospital, 20.7% (n=98) were on-site intervention and 14.1% were refusal of transfer. Conclusion: As a result, differences in PPR and TTHR rates are observed in different types of MG.
