The study materials included a sample of 518 medical records (the form 003/u) from the victims of road traffic accidents (RTA) who were urgently transported to the multi-profile hospitals of Severodvinsk during the period from January 1, 2012 to December 31, 2016.Results. The volume of prehospital medical care for the victims in road traffic accidents in the Arctic zone of Arkhangelsk region was analyzed. The following criteria of work of the ambulance teams were estimated: immobilization of injuries in victims, use of analgesics, characteristic of intravenous infusion with anti-shock medications, the time of reaching the place of an accident and time of the evacuation of victims from the place of an accident to the admission department of the multi-profile hospitals in Severodvinsk.Conclusion.

A significant part of victims with severe injuries did not receive adequate anti-shock therapy in the form of intravenous infusion (with multiple injuries – 29.2 %, with combined injuries – 79.1 % victims).
