 During the previous seven (7) day period, CPD were involved in 648 incidents. This
includes both calls for service and self-initiated activity (summary attached).
FIRE DEPARTMENT:
“It’s been a busy week for the Collinsville Fire Department with 63 ambulance calls and 17
fire calls for the week 6.3-6.10. Of the 80 emergency calls 16 occurred on Saturday the 4th
and 16 occurred on Sunday the 5th. This accounts for over 47% of our weekly calls on these
two days with over 23% of our EMS calls occurring between the hours of 2000-0600, see
chart below.
There were a group of very serious calls this week with two (2) STEMI’s occurring on the
same day. The first resident required more definitive care then Anderson hospital can
provide. This patient required coronary artery bypass graft at Barnes hospital St.
Louis. However, the rapid diagnostic evaluation and transport to Anderson, less than 24
min from the time crews arrived at the residents home and the resident was delivered to the
emergency room. This expedited care of this patient and improved the patient’s chance of a
positive outcome.
The second STEMI occurred the same day and this patient was far more critical , see
image. This patient had 100% blockage of both the Left Anterior Coronary Artery and his
Right Coronary Artery resulting in a large area of heart muscle death. This patient was
furthermore placed on a device, after stent placement, to support cardiac blood flow and
was emergently transferred to Barnes in St. Louis for coronary artery bypass graft. Similar
to the first STEMI, had the crews delayed diagnosis, treatment and transport, both residents
would have experienced a negative outcome. Moreover, had the outstanding relationship
and complete trust from Anderson hospital not existed, these patients would have certainly
had a negative outcome and for the second resident, the probability of death was high with
an exponential increase with each minute.
Another significant emergency occurred on 6.6 when an elderly resident began to choke on
food at a local restaurant. Initial 911 calls indicated the female was breathing, however,
further information revealed the resident was not breathing. Multiple units were dispatched
and the crews found the female in a wheel chair, not breathing with a complete airway
obstruction. The resident subsequently lost her pulse and crews immediately began
CPR. The objects were visualized and removed under direct laryngoscopy, the direct
visualization of the tracheal opening, and CPR continued. The resident, prior to arrival at the
Emergency Room, regained her pulse and was attempting to breathe on her own. Shortly
thereafter, the resident began having purposeful movement and was later transferred to the
ICU. Rapid availability of both crews and equipment was vital in this residents
survival. During the time of this call, both primary ambulances were on other emergency
calls and the backup ambulance meant the difference, literally, between life and death.
Another significant calls was the product of a motorcycle accident which required the air
medical evacuation of the rider to a St. Louis trauma center due to his injuries.
The 17 fire calls ranged from a mutual aid response to Edwardsville for a structural fire,
2
CITY UPDATE - JUNE 4TH - JUNE 9TH 2016
energized power lines down over the road,
motor vehicle collisions, investigations of
smoke and gas smells, and smoke in a
senior living apartment which resulted from
the resident having a cardiac arrest while
cooking. Unfortunately, this resident did
not survive her encounter.
In addition, the fire department responded
to a vehicle fire on interstate 55/70. The
vehicle involved was in transit on a flatbed
tow truck and the incident required the
complete closure of the eastbound lanes of
interstate 55/70 for nearly one hour. The
fire was successfully extinguished and
damage to the tow truck was
minimized. The fire department was
assisted by both the Illinois State Police
and the Illinois Emergency Response
Vehicle.”
