Trends: EMS Narcan administration increased by 8% from 2015 to
2016. In 2016 Strafford County had the most EMS Narcan
administration incidents per capita with 35.82 admissionsper 10,000 population.
The age group with the largest number of EMS Narcanadministration incidents is 20-29 which represents 34% ofall EMS Narcan administration incidents for 2016.
*** IMPORTANT DATA NOTES***
Narcan data in this report involves the number of incidents where Narcan was administered, NOT the number of doses of Narcan during a certain time period. Multiple doses may be administered during an incident.
Narcan is administered in cases of cardiac arrest when the cause of the arrestcannot be determined. It therefore cannot be concluded that all of the reported Narcan cases involved drugs.
