Objective:
To improve the range of use and efficiency of first-aid in a disaster, a mobile intensive care unit (ICU) ambulance was designed and evaluated.
Methods:
The data of disasters, accidental injury in astronauts, injuries occurred in conflicts in foreign nations were reviewed and analyzed, together with our clinical experience of first-aid, a mobile ICU in an ambulance was designed.
Results:
Provided with automatic cardiopulmonary resuscitation apparatus and instruments for surgical life-saving operation, the mobile ICU ambulance could allow the occupants to perform effective rescue means during rush hour of urban traffic. The new model of ambulance was proved to be able to afford an increased rescue rate in disaster scenario.
Conclusion:
The disability rate and fatality of accidental injuries and local conflicts could be reduced significantly by the use of our mobile ICU ambulance.
