Rescue System with Sensor Network for Vital Sign Monitoring and Rescue Simulations by Taking into Account Triage with Measured Vital Signs

摘要

Rescue system with sensor network for vital sign (Body Temperature, Heart Rate, Blood Pressure, Bless Rate and Consciousness) monitoring is proposed together with rescue simulations with consideration of triage by using the measured vital sign. Triage is a key for evacuation from disaster areas. Triage can be done with the gathered physical and psychological data with the sensor network for vital sign monitoring. Through a comparison between with and without consideration of triage, it is found that the time required for evacuation from disaster areas with consideration triage is 30% less than that without triage.
