Abstract

Massive victim counts and resource requirements that far exceed available resources are characteristics of disasters. Several organizations are involved in responding to disasters, including hospitals, dispatch centers, emergency operations centers, regional command, and incident commanders. The cooperation of these several organizations should be facilitated by an efficient emergency response system. An emergency management system's victim triage, resource allocation, and hospital dispatch are crucial components. An emergency response framework comprising all of the previously described elements is created in the current study endeavor.


Concentrating on large casualty victims according to the level of severity of their injuries is known as triage, and it calls for a quick and effective initial reaction. Patients are ranked in order of importance for receiving medical care and treatment based on how seriously damaged they are. With the current paper triage methods, it takes time to consolidate victim triage data. The present dissertation presents a low-cost victim triage system that uses RFID tags instead of paper triage tags to compile all victim data into a database. It will make it possible to use GPS to track the movements of emergency responders.
