Purpose: The purpose of this study is to determine potential differences in pre-hospital cases of cardiac arrest and drug Intoxication between elderly group and non-elderly group on local emergency activity sites of rescue 119 team for those cases, so that it can provide useful reference materials for a system of corresponding emergency medical services. Methods: Patients with cardiac arrest and drug intoxication in the elderly and the non-elderly group were analyzed by analyzing the Ambulance Run Report for 3 years from January 2007 to December 2009. Results: According to analysis on potential differences between elderly and the non-elderly group, it was found that there was no significant difference between elderly cases (evacuated to hospital due to cardiac arrest and drug poisoning) and non-elderly cases in year of onset (p = .247), quarter of onset (p = .813), sex (p = .235), consciousness state (p = .126), place of onset (p = .215) and number of first aid services (applied to emergency cases) respectively, but there were significant differences between elderly cases and non-elderly cases in guardian availability (p = .042), time zone of onset (p = .050), distance from the site of onset (p = .278), type of onset (p = .000), number of first aid services depending on distance of evacuation (p = .008) and effectiveness of emergency care (p = .003) on statistical basis. Conclusion: It is important to establish a system of early emergency case reports for rational emergency case management with lower mortality; shorten distance from the site of onset at each time zone of onset in emergency cases; employ more emergency team members; facilitate firsthand / secondhand medical instructions for emergency teams in specialized emergency care depending on distance of evacuation for each kind of onset (elderly group vs. non-elderly group); and improve rate of resuscitated emergency cases by extending the scope of works for emergency medical technicians into wider applications, so that it will be possible to take timely and appropriate measures for emergency settings of ever-increasing aged population in near future.

This analysis is accomplished by using 331 rescue and medical evacuation cases performed by KangWonDo Fire Service Department Aviation(KFSA-119 Heicopters) between Jan. 1998 and Oct. 2002. By analysing injury causes, annual differences, sexual, scenic(locaional) distribution and wounded part distribution, this study tried to figure out the general tendency of the helicopter-transported patients in Korea. The results are as follows; 1. The whole population of the patients rescued and transported by helicopters is increasing by the annual rate of 150%~200%. 2. For the locational (scenic) distribution of the patients, 57% (190 cases) of the target population were injured on their mountain-climbing or tracking. 3. 12% (41 cases) of the target population were the Inter-Hospital transport cases. 4. 6% (16 cases) were the expired cases. 5. for the wounded part distribution, 46% (106 cases) were muscular skeletal injuries. 6. The aircraft and personnel of the KFSA were rescue-oriented, so for the EMS operations especially inter-hospital transport missions, different medical equipments and personnels are needed.

The international COSPAS-SARSAT program is a satellite-based search and rescue distress alert detection and information distribution system and best known as the system that detects and locates emergency beacons activated by aircraft, ships and so on. However, the current message format of the system is not encrypted so that, if the rescue signal can be intercepted by the unintended receivers, the subsequent rescue activities can be handled in a hostile environment. So, this article concerns how to deal with the rescue signals in a secure way and proposes some adequate encryption methods and the corresponding key management.

Purpose : To check the legal relation between rescue team and patient as well as legal responsibility for patient's damage intentionally or erroneously caused by rescue member, a public official, in the performance of relevant job ; to prevent legal dispute over rescue team and to present program for fair settlement of dispute and equitable and feasible burden of damage. Method : First, the legal principle of Civil Law, Criminal Law and Administrative Law related to the theme of this research will be investigated around research by literature. Second, the case of dispute related to rescue team will be introduced. Result: 1. If 119 rescue members as a public official intentionally or erroneously cause damage to patient in the performance of job, they shall bear civil, criminal and administrative responsibility. They shall bear civil responsibility for indemnity for damage due to default or tort. The typical criminal responsibility includes accidental homicide arising out of duty, preparing falsified official document, dereliction of duty, etc. In the administrative side, the state is responsible for indemnity for peculiar status of the rescue member, public official. 2. Though raising civil petition or legal dispute over unsatisfactory rescue service may be reasonable to guarantee the right of nation, such action may cause stress to rescue member as well as may lead to mental shrinking and defensive attitude only to take the basic first aid treatment which has low possibility of mistake instead of active first aid treatment so as to avoid legal responsibility. 3. The program that may prevent legal dispute over 119 rescue team includes expansion of manpower specialized in first aid treatment, enhancement of education on legal environment, development and application of standard job guideline, formation of mutual trust with patient, detailed explanation, preparing and keeping minute record, improvement of the rescue members' ability of first aid treatment and development of medical instruction mode. Conclusion : The best policy is to prevent legal dispute. If it is impossible to basically exclude the possibility of dispute, however, we need to make effort to minimize the occurrence, settle fairly and divide damage equitably and feasibly. To improve the preventible death rate of our first aid system to the level of advanced country, 119 rescue team which is in charge of the stage before hospital needs to positively enforce special first aid by improving the qualitative level of rescue service and to strive to prevent legal dispute that may occur in the process.

Recently, location based service(LBS) expended based on personal specialized service, however since commercialized GPS based emergency rescue service comes with shadow zone for GPS signal such as inside building, the accuracy and reliability are not guaranteed. Therefore to improve such problem, we propose an active location detecting algorithm using RFID-TAG and Yagiantenna. To track the location of RFID-TAG where signal is generated, location tracking device in which Yagi-Antenna is installed moves around. Since directed wave and reflected wave co-exist during signal reception, final signal generated location is searched by setting up multiple of locations where signal can be generated on the map and moving location tracking device along minimum length of path. The algorithm proposed in this paper was verified of its technical validity through simulator.

사건 사고현장에서 가장 먼저 접근하는 초동조치 활동은 원인을 규명하는데 결정적인 역할을 한다. 법의학적 지식이 부족한 자가 최초현장에 접근하여 결정적인 사건해결 증거를 멸실케 한다면 억울한 죽음은 물론이고 무고한 혐의자를 발생시키며 유사범죄의 발생을 막을 수 없을 것이다. 본 연구는 119구급대 응급구조사에 대한 법의학교육의 필요성을 제시하고자 전국 대학(교) 응급구조학과 및 2급 양성기관의 법의학교육 실태분석을 위한 조사를 시행하였으며, 119구급대원 중 1 2급 응급구조사 307명(1급 43%, 2급 57%)을 대상으로 설문조사를 실시하였다. 그 결과 업무 중 범죄와 관련된 경험 94.8%, 죽음(변사체)의 경험이 91.9%였고, 이러한 현장에 92.8%가 경찰보다 먼저 현장에 도착하였다. 응답자의 72%는 법의학지식이 부족하여 업무 중에 어려움을 겪은 경험이 있었고, 수사경찰관과 문제, 법적증언, 유가족과의 문제 등을 경험하였다. 90.9%는 응급구조사의 업무수행에 법의학관련 지식이 도움이 된다고 긍정적으로 밝혔으며, 법의학교수에 의해 정기적인 교육을 희망하고 있었다. 응급구조사들의 법의학적 검시관련 지식을 알아보기 위해 국가 및 지방자치단체가 억울한 죽음이 없도록 감시하고, 정책적 차원에서 법의학적인 검시가 필요한 것에 대한 질문에 1급 2급 응급구조사 두 군 모두 20개 항목 중 각각 8.86개와 7.99개만 인식하고 있어, 법의학교육이 절실히 필요한 것으로 나타났다. 따라서 법의학은 응급구조사에게 단순히 범죄와 관련된 상황에서만 필요한 것이 아니라 각종 대량재해 교통사고 보험관련 사고 산업재해 등의 죽음과 관련된 법률적 문제를 해결하는 데에도 연관되어 있다. 신고체계가 다원화 되어 있는 우리나라 현실에서 119구급대의 응급구조사들은 의학적 판단에 기초한 신속하고 정확한 응급처치와 더불어 현장을 보존하고 결정적 사건해결의 물적 증거 보존을 위한 법의학적 지식을 가지기 위해서는 체계적인 법의학교육이 시행되어져야 할 것이다.
