[edit] Including DELTA, ECHO, and OMEGA

This page is outdated, the AMPDS/MPDS uses 5 determinint levels from A to E now (as per PriorityDispatch.com), with ECHO being resp/cardiac arrest/death and ALPHA being minor... There is also an OMEGA level which is for expected death.

Not come across that variation - there is nothing about this on the website you've given (a courier company), and certainly the current revision on here is still used in a few places. Do you have a citation? Owain.davies 18:08, 23 July 2007 (UTC)

Here are is sources from the ProQA website itself

http://www.prioritydispatch.net/support/pdf/ProQA_3.4.2_Response_Configuration_Changes.pdf this includes the Echo & Omega response in the configuration files.

http://www.prioritydispatch.net/support/pdf/ProQA_User_Guide.pdf Also shows clear referenc to the ECHO and OMEGA response determinents. Medic48 03:01, 16 August 2007 (UTC)

http://www.prioritydispatch.net/index.php?a=products&b=advemdfrg_more shows an example of the field guide, where DELTA and ECHO classifications can be inferred. dafydd (talk) 00:02, 21 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Clawson codes (merge)

It seems that Clawson codes really should be part of the overall information in Advanced Medical Priority Dispatch System. -- Whpq 21:39, 5 November 2007 (UTC)

Fixed the spelling of "Clawson." However, that page is a redirect back to this one. If you have an outside link to Clawson codes, that would be best. dafydd (talk) 00:02, 21 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] OMEGA == SOINS HUMANITAIRES

from my understanding the OMEGA level is to be used for "bogus calls", eg: patient needs help getting back in to bed, no injuries, no emergencies, aka a soins humanitaires... doing a good deed for the patient. purpleidea (talk) 20:34, 4 March 2008 (UTC)
