    Area of Science:

    • Emergency Medicine
    • Medical Simulation
    • Disaster Response

    Background:

    • Current mass casualty evaluation methods lack realism.
    • Physician decision-making in simulated mass casualty events can be ambiguous.
    • There is a need for improved training tools in disaster medicine.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To develop a novel casualty time card system.
    • To increase the realism of mass casualty evaluation training.
    • To reduce ambiguity in physician evaluations of mock victims.

    Main Methods:

    • Development of a casualty time card system.
    • Integration of time-dependent patient deterioration.
    • Incorporation of treatment-dependent risk and outcome factors.

    Main Results:

    • The system captures key elements of physician evaluation.
    • Decision-making is freed from ambiguity associated with mock victims.
    • Patient deterioration and outcomes are dynamically represented.

    Conclusions:

    • The casualty time card system significantly enhances realism in mass casualty evaluation.
    • This methodology improves the fidelity of medical simulation for disaster preparedness.
    • The system provides a more objective and dynamic approach to training.
