Die geballte internationale Fachexpertise in Wien packte der BVRD.at unmittelbar als Chance, direkt anschließend am 3.12.2022 eine hochkarätige eintägige Konferenz zu veranstalten. Auf die eröffnende Grußbotschaft per Video von Gesundheitsministers Johannes Rauch folgte ein dichtes Programm mit faszinierenden Einblicken aus höchst unterschiedlichen Rettungswelten. BVRD.at-Vizepräsident Clemens Kaltenberger bezeichnete die BIC zurecht als einmaliges, historisches Ereignis, das es in dieser Form in Österreich noch nie gegeben hat.
Neben Einblicken in verschiedene Rettungssysteme und ihre Herausforderungen – etwa aus Frankreich (Bruno Goulesque), Zypern (Riana Constantinou) und Deutschland (Marco König) – gab die NAEMT-Direktorin Pam Lane einen faszinierenden Einblick in das weltweite Netzwerk und neue Kursformate der NAEMT.
Auch fachlich kamen die Teilnehmer:innen auf ihre Kosten: so standen etwaFachvorträge zum Airway Management (Jean Cyrille Pitteloud), der taktischen Notfallversorgung der Spezialeinheiten der Polizei (Martin Schlagenhaufen) und der taktischen Alpinmedizin samt wissenschaftlich fundierter Praxisbeispiele zum Wunderwerkzeug Rettungsdecke (Markus Isser) am Programm.
Um die Notfallmedizin in besonders herausfordernden Situationen ging es u.a. beim Vortrag über School Shootings. Ret. Chief Ken Bouvier (EMS New Orleans) gab Einblicke, welche Lehren man in den USA daraus zieht und mahnte alle Verantwortlichen, sich rechtzeitig auf derartige Situationen vorzubereiten, auch wenn sie sich keiner jemals in Österreich wünscht oder vorstellen möchte. Eine gänzlich andere Extremsituation thematisierte Analogastronaut Gernot Grömer vom Österreichischen Weltraumforum. Er sprach über medizinische Herausforderungen von Weltraummissionen und gab faszinierende Einblicke in die Lebenswelten jenseits der Erde. Welchen Stellenwert die Wissenschaft in der Weiterentwicklung von Rettungssystemen und Versorgungsstandards einnimmt, brachte auf eindrückliche Weise der UCLA-Forscher und Paramedic David Page mit dem Slogan„Science is Sexy!“ auf den Punkt.
Natürlich kamen auch der Austausch und das Networking an diesem eindrücklichen Tag nicht zu kurz – auch mit den Ausstellern und Partnern des Events, denen ein besonderer Dank gilt.
