Description
1) Objective
The Laerdal Foundation for Acute Medicine was established in 1980 to provide financial support to practically oriented research and development in acute medicine. It focuses on practically oriented research. “The Chain of Survival” and “The Utstein Formula for Survival” have been established as metaphors for understanding system factors that impact the chances of survival.
The Foundation Board wishes to contribute to a continued documentation and validation on how these concepts may reflect current medical, educational and implementation science. Over the last decade it has become apparent that there, in particular, is a need for improved understanding of factors contributing to educational efficiency and the process of implementing scientific evidence into practice.

3) Location
