Abstract

Recently the study about a smart health care which is combined IT with BT to provide a variety of health care services are being actively investigated. In order to provide the best possible emergency medical services in a short period of time, it is necessary that the rapid emergency measures in the event of an emergency essential. In this paper, we propose an emergency medical service platform to take effective first aid to person who has a NFC tag or NFC-enabled mobile smart phones in an accident. Using NFC, it is possible to help without physical contact to the patient unconscious to emergency incidents such as falling down in everyday life. In this paper, we design and implement an mobile emergency medical system that can deliver first aid information ask for help in case of emergency.

최근 IT와 BT를 융합한 스마트 헬스케어를 통해 다양한 의료 서비스를 제공하는 연구가 활발하게 진행되고 있다. 짧은 시간에 최상의 응급 의료 서비스를 제공하기 위해서는 응급 상황 발생시 신속한 응급 조치가 필수적이다. 본 논문에서는 NFC 태그를 휴대하거나 NFC 기능을 적용한 스마트폰을 휴대한 사람이 의식을 잃는 사고를 당했을 때 효율적으로 응급 조치를 취할 수 있는 응급 의료 서비스 플랫폼을 제안한다. NFC를 이용하면 일상생활 중에서 낙상과 같은 사고로 의식이 없는 응급 환자에게 신체 접촉 없이 도움을 주는 것이 가능하다. 본 논문에서는 모바일 응급 의료시스템을 구현하여 환자가 스마트폰을 활용하여 응급 상황 발생시 주위 사람들에게 도움을 청하고 응급 조치 정보를 전달할 수 있음을 보였다.
