Abstract

This study was to investigate emergency medical service demands, fire service force of local governments, and relationship between these two factors for developing effective prehospital emergency medical services. For this, this study was measured the ratio of the number of patients transported and residents, ambulances and residents, patients transported and ambulance workers of 16 local governments. And then examined hypotheses. Data were collected from 2000 year to 2010 year. This study results indicated that average number of patients transported are significant differences not only between metropolitan district and general district, but also between capital area and non-capital area. And this study indicated that the fire service force are significant differences not only between metropolitan district and general district, but also between capital area and non-capital area. Also, the numbers of patients transported per ambulance, and the numbers of patients transported per ambulance worker were significant by regional groups. The number of patients transported per ambulance was a significant difference between the first half and the second half, but there was not a significant different the number of patients transported between the first half and the second half.

본 연구는 효율적인 병원전 응급의료서비스를 구축하기 위한 자료를 제시하기 위하여 광역자치단체의 구급서비스 수요와 소방력, 그리고 양자 간의 관계를 조사하고자 한다. 이를 위하여 본 연구는 2000년부터 2010년까지 특별시 광역시, 도 등 16개 광역자치단체의 이송환자의 수/주민수, 구급차의 수/주민수, 구급대원의 수/주민수, 이송환자의 수/ 구급차의 수, 이송환자의 수/구급대원의 수와 같은 변수를 측정한 다음 이를 이용하여 4가지 가설을 검증하였다. 그 결과 특별시 광역시 지역(수도권 지역)과 도 지역(비수도권 지역)의 평균 이송환자 수는 유의적인 차이가 발생하였으며, 특별시 광역시 지역(수도권 지역)과 도 지역(비수도권 지역)의 소방력에서도 유의적인 차이가 발생하였다. 또한, 특별시 광역시 지역(수도권 지역)과 도 지역(비수도권 지역)의 구급차 1대당 이송환자수와 구급대원 1인의 이송 환자 수는 유의적인 차이가 발생하였으며, 구급차 1대당 이송환자의 수는 전반기와 후반기에 유의적인 차이가 나타났다. 그러나 구급대원 1인당 이송환자 수는 전반기와 후반기에 유의적인 차이가 없었다.
