Summary. The objectives of the study based on the experience of emergency medical care (EMC) teams in Ryazan: to study the prevalence and dynamics of emergency conditions in endocrinology in the prehospital period in 2018-2023; to determine the most common endocrine disorders requiring emergency medical care; to determine the frequency of fatal outcomes at the stage of medical evacuation and the frequency of hospitalizations.

Materials and methods of the study. The study materials are the maps of EMC team calls in Ryazan in 2018-2023. The research methods are the analytical method and the method of generalization.

Results of the study and their analysis. The analysis of statistical data for Ryazan for 2018-2023 showed that emergency conditions in endocrinology remain relevant, make up on average 0.5% of all calls to EMC teams and only in the last few years have they shown a slight downward trend. The leading place among calls to emergency medical teams is occupied by newly diagnosed diabetes mellitus (DM) and hypoglycemia. Women suffering from diabetes mellitus more often seek emergency medical care – mainly due to hypo- and hyperglycemia in type 2 DM. The proportion of fatal outcomes among patients with diabetes mellitus in the pre-hospital period was 0.1%; 42% of patients with DM were hospitalized in medical treatment organizations (MTO).
