Problem(2)

 

Hello everyone. Today I am going to talk about Cooperation with an operational hour and a fire-fighting disaster-prevention helicopter and the configuration of an information system.

 

First of all, I talk about Cooperation with an operational hour and a fire-fighting disaster-prevention helicopter. Subjects are arranging a doctor helicopter all over the country and expanding operation time. In investigation of Chiba Prefecture, the percentage which the deceased generated in the traffic accident within doctor helicopter operation time is only 30 percent. However, when it was assumed that the activity time of a doctor helicopter is extended from sunrise till 8:00 at night, it became clear for it to be able to deal with about 45% of fatal accident. From such a background, examination about operation time expansion of a doctor helicopter was carried out in Chiba Prefecture in the 2007 fiscal year. Another subject is the cooperation organization of a fire-fighting disaster prevention helicopter and a doctor helicopter. In order to utilize the feature which each helicopter has to the utmost, it is necessary to clarify each business. The fire-fighting disaster prevention helicopter is specializing in a search and rescue, conveyance between hospitals, and medical conveyance of a detached island and a remote district. As for a doctor helicopter, specializing in carrying a patient from the spot is desirable.

 

Secondly, I talk about the configuration of an information system.

ADMS (Atlas and Database of Air Medical Services) is the map information for the aeromedical service currently used in the United States. It is the database which accumulated information, including the mobilization base of a helicopter, a communications center, a trauma center, other medical facilities, etc., required for an emergency helicopter. There are a nonprofit institution, a company, and a public institution (police, fire fighting) in the organization of operation of a helicopter. Furthermore, the information on the army which offers emergency business daily is also included in it. As information on the helicopter itself, a waiting position, a model, the number of machines, and a registration symbol are indicated. Furthermore, this is put on the Internet in combination with a geographic information system (GIS:Geographic Information System). So, it can see as a map on the Internet even from where. On the other hand, the accident automatic report system (ACN:AutomaticCrash Notification) is positioned by one of the high-speed traffic systems (ITS:Intelligent Transportation Systems). It is a system automatically connected to a special operator, when an automobile accident occurs and the air bag. When there is no response of a driver to an operator's question, it is a mechanism in which an operator demands arrangements of an ambulance or a police car promptly instead of a driver. Originally, DAMS was developed for the purpose of conveying the accident information acquired by ACN to the optimal hospital. Both ADMS and ACN do not have familiarity in our country. It makes a helicopter mobilize quickly, when got seriously injured in the independent accident in which the witness is not. It reduces the people killed in a traffic accident. And it is hard working that reducing after effect positively. Also in our country, since "Special Measures Law about the reservation of emergency care using the helicopter for emergency care" was approved and enacted by the ordinary Diet session in June, 2007, it is thought that the number of doctor helicopter base hospitals increases within several years sharply. It is shortening time until it starts medical treatment from the occurrence of an accident and Japan should aim at reducing fatalities from traffic accidents and reducing after effect.
