Application of Drones in Pre-hospital Emergency Care in Military Hospitals
Abstract：Military hospitals bear the dual mission of medical services during peacetime and health support during wartime. Their functions include daily medical treatment, admission of injured and sick personnel, and emergency medical rescue during public emergencies. During wartime, they also provide health support to various levels of medical treatment units. Among these functions, pre-hospital emergency care remains a critical link [1]. Pre-hospital emergency care refers specifically to emergency treatment and monitoring provided by professional medical personnel before patients with critical or urgent conditions are transported to medical institutions. Innovations in pre-hospital emergency medicine can address medical challenges by utilizing technologies from other industries. Drones are aircraft controlled by remote controllers or onboard computers. Due to their flexibility, intelligence, and safety in operation, they have been increasingly applied in medical emergency response in recent years [2]. The '13th Five-Year Plan' for China's national emergency response system construction has included drones in the list of specialized emergency equipment, applied in emergency rescue [3]. This article will elaborate on the role of drones in pre-hospital emergency care in joint logistics hospitals.
