In an emergency, EMTs are typically dispatched to the scene by a 911 operator and often work with police and fire department personnel. Once they arrive, they determine the nature and extent of a patients condition while trying to ascertain whether the patient has preexisting medical problems.
Platelet endothelial cell adhesion molecule (PECAM-1) also known as cluster of differentiation 31 (CD31) is a protein that in humans is encoded by the PECAM1 gene found on chromosome 17.PECAM-1 plays a key role in removing aged neutrophils from the body.D31 is also expressed in certain tumors, including epithelioid hemangioendothelioma, epithelioid sarcoma-like hemangioendothelioma, other vascular tumors, histiocytic malignancies, and plasmacytomas.
CD30. The CD 30 gene is located at on chromosome one at 1p36. It appears to be a lymphoid activation gene and is part of the nerve growth factor/TNF superfamily. The protein product is a 120 kDa transmembrane glycoprotein 8. Its ligand, CD30L, has homology to TNF.Ber-H2 identifies an epitope which survives routine fixation and processing 9.he Ki-1 antibody recognises both an intracellular protein and a transmembrane glycoprotein, which are apparently unrelated. Reaction with the former may account for some positivity with Ki-1 which cannot be reproduced using Ber-H2. The transmembrane glycoprotein is often referred to as the true CD 30 antigen.
