Abstract :
In recent years, the concept of triage in emergency medical care at the time of disaster has attracted wide attention and studies have focused on developing electronic triage systems that can collect and manage information about victims through a network. In order to carry out emergency lifesaving activities at an actual disaster site quickly and accurately, it is essential to do triage training frequently. In this study, we propose a triage training system where a training scenario may change depending on actions of health care workers. In addition, our system makes triage training more realistic by enabling information sharing between the disaster countermeasures office and a disaster site. The evaluation shows that our system enables to prompt an appropriate action to health care workers even in a case of a dynamic scenario change, and to share necessary information with the office accurately.
