Introduction of the Conducted Electrical Weapon into a Hospital Setting
- "The objective is to describe results from the introduction of the Conducted Electrical Weapon (CEW)into a hospital environment. Methods: Upon introducing the CEW into an urban hospital campus, standardized reports were made describing all CEW use by hospital security. Reports were retrospectively reviewed for the first 12 months of CEW use. Collected data included force options used, potential injuries avoided, witness comments, outcomes, and whether the CEW required full activation or if inactive presentation was sufficient to control the situation."
