Design and construction of a large 5G mobile emergency resuscitation unit / 中华急诊医学杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective:To design a large-scale mobile emergency resuscitation unit based on 5G communication technology to improve the efficiency of prehospital transportation and treatment.Methods:The study was conducted in Hangzhou from November 2022 to September 2023. It's sorted out the application scenario requirements for prehospital first aid, transfer, and prehospital-intrahospital emergency linkage in carrying out the program design, single technology testing, onboard debugging, and integration debugging phases sequentially.Results:In September 2023, a large-scale 5G mobile emergency resuscitation unit was completed and delivered. The unit was converted from an electric bus and consists of five parts: (1) Vehicle appearance: the vehicle is 12.9 meters long, 2.3 meters wide and 2.6 meters high, with a single mileage of 200 kilometers; (2) The overall internal structure: the vehicle has one resuscitation bed and two stretcher positions. Additionally, there is a comprehensive operating table located at the front of the vehicle. The middle of the vehicle is equipped with a central digital control screen. (3) First aid materials and instruments: the vehicle's materials are modularly configured in accordance with the resuscitation, guardianship, surgery, inspection and testing, Communication modular configuration, equipped with a defibrillation monitor, transfer ventilator, extracorporeal membrane lung oxygenation and other critical care first aid and electrocardiogram, digital radiography, blood gas analyzer, chest pain 5 monitors and other inspection and testing equipment; (4) Vehicle communication and information systems: equipped with high-definition remote video interactive system, telemedicine terminal DP300 integrated system, a real-time panoramic experience system and centralized guardianship system; (5) Vehicle disinfection: a plasma disinfector installed on the top of the car can meet the hospital disinfection hygiene standardsⅡ class environmental management requirements.Conclusions:Incorporating 5G communication technology, the large-scale mobile emergency resuscitation unit is equipped with various advanced treatment equipment and remote consultation systems. It can accommodate the resuscitation needs of the most critically ill patients, offering substantial support for public emergency rescues. Further exploration of its potential is merited.
