- ItemMobile Health Systems that Optimize Resources in Emergency Response Situations.(2011-02-24) Massey, Tammara; Gao, TiaDuring mass casualty incidents a large number of patients need to be triaged accurately in order to save the maximum number of lives Recently portable health systems have been developed that can gather patient s vital signs and wireless transmit this information to a central location for analysis This research introduces a methodology to improve triage in mass casualty incidents by combining statistical optimization techniques with mobile health systems to manage resources using evidence based data We combine data collected during a field test with data of patient s vital signs to simulate how mobile health systems can optimize resources in emergency response situations
