  • Quick accident spot reaching of 119ERU is the most important role in decrease of accident depth. If 4 minutes of wounded person pass after cardiac arrest, brain damage is begun. and If 10 minutes of wounded person pass after cardiac arrest, possibility to die rises. Accordingly, when establish 119ERU, need to consider travel time to traffic accidents spot. This treatise groped a facility location problem using SCLM and minisum location problem mutually. And existent minisum location problem has a problem that maximum travel time exceed $\lambda$. ERU to need in present situation and also can reduce average travel time. so this treatise propose modified minisum location problem. In case applying modified minisum location theory, 119ERU can arrive all demand and that is optimized about demand and travel time. Can minimise figure of 119 first aids to need in present situation applying this way, and also can reduce average passing time. Finally, this way can minimise figure of 119ERU to need in present situation and also can reduce average travel time.

  • There have been various discussions to prevent violence to 119 emergency medical technicians, and the aims of the were as follow ; first, the staff dispatched to the scene should be reinforced so that the patients committing violent acts can be subdued. Secondly, self-defense devices should be provided to 119 emergency medical technicians so that they can use them in a dangerous situation and escape from it. And finally, 119 emergency medical technicians should be allowed to refuse to transport the patients when they or their guardians do violence to them in order to prevent potential violent cases. When countermeasures after violence is committed, it is important to secure evidence and determine strongly to bring charges to the offenders rather than agree to overlook the violence in order to correct them right. It is necessary to introduce a support program to help the victim technicians concentrate on their physical and mental treatment. Violence to 119 EMT should be punished so that the society will think it is natural to punish such offenders. In a safer environment, 119 EMT can perform their duties and it is very important to draw this consensus.

  • 병원 전 단계에서는 일반인 단계, 일차 반응자 단계, 기초응급의료 제공 단계 그리고 전문응급의료 제공단계로 구분되는데 각 단계의 적절한 병원 전 응급의료 서비스의 제공은 환자의 예후에 긍정적인 영향을 미치는 것으로 알려져 있다. 그러나 국내의 일반인 단계 및 일차 반응자 단계의 응급의료 제공은 매우 낮은수준이며, 응급의료체계는 전문 응급의료가 뒤따르지 않는 기초 응급의료만을 제공할 뿐인데도 그 적절성에 대하여 많은 문제점이 지적되어 오고 있다. 우리나라의 병원 전 응급의료체계는 비교적 짧은 기간 동안에 소방서를 축으로 운영되고 있다. 병원 전 단계에서 응급처치의 적절성을 높이기 위해서는 119구급대에 의한 응급처치에 대하여 체계적으로 조사를 수행함으로써 기초 응급의료에 대한 지속적인 질 관리를 해 나가는 것이 매우 중요하다. 이러한 질 관리의 평가를 위해서는 적절한 평가도구가 필요한데 객관성이 높으면서도 비용-효과적인 도구와 지표는 아직 확립되지 못하고 있는 것으로 보인다. 그동안 119 구급대에 의한 응급처치의 적절성에 대하여 몇 차례 보고가 있었지만, 단일 기관 또는 단일 질병을 대상으로 수행된 연구였거나 일개 응급의료기관으로 이송된 환자들만을 대상으로 했던 비교적 소규모의 보고들이었으며, 한 도시를 전체를 대상으로 한 광범위한 조사가 이루어진 적은 아직 없었다. 이에 이 연구에서는 대구 경북 지역의 119구급대원을 대상으로 병원 전 응급처치의 실태와 및 교육현황을 조사하여 응급처치의 질적 향상을 위한 프로그램 개발에 필요한 기초 자료를 제공하고자 한다.

  • This study analyzed current prehospital emergency care for severe trauma patients administered by different number of 119 EMS (emergency medical services) teams. Out of 1,067 severe trauma patients transferred by 119 EMS teams in J province from January 1st to December 31st 2015, 438 were evaluated in this study. IBM SPSS Statistics 21.0 was used to analyze collected data. The number of patients with severe trauma during the period of study was higher in male with two and three ambulance crews of 119 EMS teams with 242 patients (70.6%) and 66 patients (69.5%) respectively. The percentage of transfers made to local emergency medical centers was highest in those two groups, being 44.0% (151 patients) and 49.5% (47 patients), respectively. Total time spent at the scene did not differ between ambulance crews of two and three, nor did the frequency of practicing advanced airway management and IV (intravenous) cannulation, or the success rate of IV cannulation (p=0.253, p=0.362, p=1.000). Overall, the results indicated that merely increasing the number of paramedics does not improve the quality of prehospital care for severe trauma patients. Measures such as securing professional paramedics, simplifying direct medical oversights, activating indirect medical oversights, and expanding the legally allowed work scope are required.

  • The regulation on organization and operation of rescue and aid party was amended. This Regulation is designed to provide legal formality in order to protect not only the patients' right but also 119 rescuers from liability, which is due to treatment refusal by patient and the discretionary refusal of transfer by 119 rescuers on the non-emergency situation. This study looked over the constitute of violation of emergency medical service act related to the discretionary refusal of 119 rescuers, the criminal liability owing to omission and the possibility of national indemnities on the damage of patients. This study also analyzed the courts' decision and attitude by exploring overseas judicial precedents and examined what should be considered on the execution of the newly enacted law. Finally, this study put emphasis on the importance of medical director's control, documentation of every procedure, 119 rescuer's authorization on the refusal of transfer by securing patient's informed consent.

  • Modern society is facing an unstable environment due to unexpected accidents and hazardous situations. For example, incidents such as the collapse of the Bundang Bridge and the crushing accident in Itaewon could serve as examples. In addition to these, critical emergencies like sudden cardiac arrests and strokes frequently occur, requiring swift actions and smooth transfers to specialized medical institutions for effective responses. In response to these risks, the country has been establishing various systems to protect the lives and safety of its citizens. Among these, the 119 First Aid Activities plays a crucial role within the emergency medical system. Its goal is to promptly respond to critical emergency situations involving severe trauma patients or patients with serious illnesses, minimizing damage and safeguarding lives by swiftly transferring them to emergency medical institutions for specialized treatment. The core activity related to this is emergency rescue operations. In particular, the 119 First Aid system serves as a crucial institution responsible for the hospital transportation of emergency patients. However, rescue personnel still encounter cases of interference with their activities during their duties. Despite efforts from the police, these interference cases persist, and they share similarities with the crime of obstructing official duties. Interference with emergency activities exhibits a comparable nature to instances such as physical assaults and equipment damage against emergency medical practitioners working within the emergency medical system. Therefore, a comprehensive understanding and improvement efforts regarding the issues of interference that arise during the process of emergency medical activities, including the 119 First Aid system, are necessary. The solution to these problems is to establish and improve the conditions for obstruction of first aid activities, focusing on the "Framework Act on Firefighting" and the "Act on 119 Rescue and Emergency."

  • This study was analyzed the 119 rescuers' image of citizens to provide a fundamental material to improve 119 rescuers' image effectively. This research design was a descriptive study. Data were collected from November 9, 2011 to December 9, 2011, and analyzed by SPSS PASW statistics 18.0 program. Among the 4 subcategories of the image, occupational image was found the highest value($3.17{\pm}0.36$), and the social image($2.81{\pm}0.48$) was found the lowest. There were statistical different between age($p$ <.001), occupation($p$ <.001), whether or not the emergency first response education is completed($p$ <.05), and whether or not 119 emergency service is received($p$ <.05). In the result of multivariate regression analysis, adjusted $R^2$ value was 0.120. The model fit 12.0%. Occupation (students, housewives and office workers) and those who completed emergency first response education were showed a positive image of 119 rescuers. There is a need to compare and analyze the image of 119 rescuers in accordance with whether or not 119 emergency service is received and the satisfaction with the emergency service under the control of the general characteristics(sex, age, occupation, economic level, etc.) of subjects.

  • Direct medical control by medical doctors is an essential part of emergency medical services system (EMSS). However, the indications are not specifically defined, even in 119 system with their own medical control team. The Seoul Metropolitan Fire and Disaster Management Department has operated internal medical consultation services on its own since January 2004. Based on the experiences from these services, we reviewed the cases of the direct medical consultation and establish the indications for direct medical control. And we presumed the demand of direct medical control with the established indications. The crews of 119 in Seoul made 793 calls to Medical Control Team during November 2004. We reviewed all of the calls according to the level of consciousness (AVPU), the kinds of emergency care done by crews during transport (10 categories), and the mechanisms of injuries (9 categories). The need for direct medical control was judged by authors with reviewing the records reported by the crews and control teams. Among 23 items, 14 items assigned as the indications, which were abnormal level of consciousness (VPU), 6 kinds of emergency care, and 5 mechanisms of injures. The sum of the three of them, 7,782 cases (45.9%), was in need of direct medical control. In conclusion, about half of the patients transported by 119 crews in Seoul require direct medical control. The need for the direct medical control in Seoul was estimated as many as 260 calls per day. To fulfill the need for direct medical control and to provide a effective medical control, the direct medical control should be accomplished through the communications between the crews and the medical staffs in the local hospitals.
