ARSA-the pervasive Rescuer Supporting System for the Pre-hospital Emergency Medical Service

Abstract

Injuries and sudden illnesses are leading causes of mortality and disability worldwide. Pre-hospital Emergency Medical Service is the Medical service which focuses on helping the emergency patients from traumatic condition, preventing from disabilities and deaths, and associating the patients from severe condition to get the proper treatment on time. This could increase the survival rate dramatically. However, the Pre-hospital Emergency Medical Service nowadays still facing some limitations which prevent the treatment from getting to the accident site on time. In this paper, we propose ARSA, the Rescuer Supporting System for the Pre-hospital Emergency Medical Service. The system helps the patients to send the emergency request to the nearest paramedics and the medical supplies transporters. Therefore, the help could be sent directly to the patient site without having to wait for the ambulance sent from the EMS agency. This could immensely increases the survival rate of the emergency patients.
