Mass gathering events occur frequently across Australia. The preparation of a mass gathering event from an emergency healthcare service perspective is conducted with limited evidence to support decision-making. Using routinely collected tourism, health, and meteorological data, this research aims to determine the impact on ambulance and emergency department services in the vicinity of 750 planned mass gathering events over a five year period (2015 – 2019). The expected outcome includes an enhanced ability to predict the required emergency healthcare services for a mass gathering event, therefore enhancing the planning and response, benefiting MGE attendees and the MGE host community.

Members of the ED Collaborative Research Group have been part of a successful partnership grant awarded by the National Health and Medical Research Council. They awarded 1.5M AUD which was matched for by national and state health partners (who contributed 2.1M)
The main aim is to improve the experience for thousands who require peripheral intravenous (IV) catheters throughout the health system. Griffith researchers will work with three Queensland partner hospitals (two metropolitan and one regional), the Queensland rural and remote education provider, and the Australian Commission on Safety and Quality in Healthcare on the project.
In the first stage of the three-year project, Griffith researchers with partners and stakeholders will co-design a difficult IV access ultrasound pathway and associated implementation strategies. The second stage will see a progressively trialled implementation across hospitals, with a national rollout (metropolitan, rural and remote settings) in the final stage
