Context	Mechanism	Outcome
Context 1: The prehospital work is accomplished a long distance from medical support; the personnel handle many different symptoms and conditions in changing environments and they have different levels of education and experience.	Mechanism1: The guidelines are developed in a process in which people with in-depth context knowledge are excluded.	Outcome 1: Guidelines with a format poorly adjusted to the context.

	Mechanism 4: The ambulance mission is divided into 5 separate phases.	Outcome 1: Different need for support in the different phases.
		Outcome 2: Request for a system which covers all phases.
