Cycling has become an increasingly popular form of exercise. Many enthusiasts put on stylish, tight-fitting cycling gear and ride road bikes through city streets, enjoying both the physical benefits of exercise and the scenery along the way. However, with heavy traffic on urban roads, cycling also carries certain risks. Recently, the Langfa Emergency Station of the Daxing Branch of Beijing 120 received an emergency call reporting that a woman had collided with an electric bicycle while riding her own bicycle and fallen on a pedestrian crossing. She was in urgent need of assistance. The ambulance team immediately set out for the scene. On the way, the emergency physician, Dr. Hou, called to ask whether the patient was conscious and whether she had any visible injuries or bleeding. He also advised bystanders not to move the injured woman unnecessarily.

Upon arrival, the emergency personnel first checked for passing vehicles to prevent a secondary collision. They then carefully assessed the woman's condition, gently asked about her injuries, evaluated her consciousness and physical responses, and checked for injuries to her head and limbs, paying particular attention to possible fractures, internal injuries and other less obvious trauma.

After completing the necessary emergency care at the scene, the ambulance team carefully transferred the woman onto the stretcher and into the ambulance. During transport, the emergency personnel continued to monitor her vital signs and communicated her condition to the receiving hospital so that medical staff could prepare for her arrival in advance, helping save valuable time for subsequent treatment.

This accident also serves as a reminder to all cyclists. Always wear a helmet properly when riding, slow down when approaching intersections, and remain alert to passing motor vehicles and non-motor vehicles. If you accidentally fall and sustain an injury, never try to get up forcefully or twist your body unnecessarily. Call 120 immediately and wait for professional emergency personnel to arrive and provide assistance. This can help minimize the risks associated with the injury.
