Abstract
Background: Disasters occur unexpectedly each year, killing thousands around the world. Millions are directly under the influence of the outcomes of these events and their survival depends on the immediate state and international aid. This supports should be obtained in early hours after disasters. The main important need after disasters is safe water supply, which along with providing shelter, medicine, and nutrition, is vital to prevent diseases. So, immediate actions are needed to replace suitable drinking water resources for affected people. Methods: This study was conducted in 2019 using Web of Science, PupMed, Springer, Scopus, Embase databases (from 2000 to 31 September 2019). The PRISMA guideline was used to compile the study. All articles included in this study were original articles, short communications, letters to editor, editorials, systematic reviews, and articles presented at conferences and international congresses on the main topic of the study. Only English full-text articles were included in this study. Results: According to the results, water resources supply in disasters and emergencies criteria were classified into 4 main and 30 sub-criteria. The main criteria include environmental, economic, technology performance, quantitative and qualitative characteristics of water resources, which have 4, 2, 12, and 12 sub-criteria, respectively. Conclusion: This study intends to assist disaster service officials and decision makers and supervisors to plan for drinking water supply from area water resources, before the disaster and based on the history and geographical characteristics of the area, to take actions and meet the drinking water needs of the region.
背景:每年都会发生意想不到的灾难,在世界各地造成数千人死亡。数百万人直接受到这些事件后果的影响,他们的生存取决于当前的国家和国际援助。这种支持应该在灾难发生后的最初几个小时内获得。灾后最重要的需求是安全供水,这与提供住所、药品和营养一样,对预防疾病至关重要。因此,需要立即采取行动,为受影响的人们更换合适的饮用水资源。方法:本研究于2019年使用Web of Science、PupMed、施普林格、Scopus、Embase数据库(2000 - 2019年9月31日)进行。采用PRISMA指南编制本研究。本研究纳入的所有文章均为原创文章、短通讯、给编辑的信、社论、系统综述以及在会议和国际大会上发表的有关本研究主题的文章。本研究仅纳入英文全文文章。结果:根据研究结果,将灾害应急供水标准划分为4个主要标准和30个次要标准。主要标准包括水资源的环境、经济、技术性能、数量和质量特征,分别有4个、2个、12个和12个子标准。结论:本研究旨在协助灾害服务官员、决策者和监督者在灾害发生前,根据该地区的历史和地理特征,从该地区的水资源中规划饮用水供应,采取行动,满足该地区的饮用水需求。
