Delete non notable neologism, and WP is not a dictionary. Mayalld (talk) 13:43, 4 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
I've added content to the page to indicate that this term is not new and in widespread use within the medical community over many years. Therefore it doesn't qualify as a neologism (which I presume is a term used by editors whose may be unfamiliar with an expression). As to whether it is non notable, I guess that for a western community in which the risk of such a process is 1 in every 50 individuals, that 2% of the population would regard this life-saving experience as highly notable.

- Keep This is a stub not a dicdef. Sources are provided and so notability is demonstrated. Neologism is not a reason to delete (just reword). Colonel Warden (talk) 15:53, 4 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

- Merge - with Emergency medical services. Not being in EMS or medicine, I am not 100% sure that there is not some major difference, but given the size of this article, I think it could be slipped in. LonelyBeacon (talk) 06:57, 6 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Merge. JFW | T@lk 07:09, 6 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Still neology; we have not have any actual external links, only cite by groups.--Freewayguy Call? Fish 00:10, 12 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
