Planned Project:

Emergency Medical Supply Drones

Projected completion:

Mid 2015

Purpose:

To utilize small agile drones capable of high-speed flight to assist modern emergency medical services to gain faster access to those patients in urban and rural areas.

The average response time for an ambulance is 10 minutes. The first minutes after an accident are critical and essential to provide the right care to prevent escalation. Speeding up emergency response can prevent deaths and accelerate recovery dramatically.

Background:

According to background research within the Journal of the American Medical Association, successful cardiac resuscitation is strongly correlated with rapid provisioning and defibrillation.

• Time of collapse to defibrillation

• CPR initiation within 4 minutes

• ALS with defibrillation within 8 minutes

Sample data from the Scottish Ambulance Service on ambulance response times led to the following results on cardiac arrest survival:

• Reducing response times = increased patient survival

• 14 min / 90% fractile response

• Reducing response times from 14 – 8 minutes:

• Increase survivors from 6% - 8%

• Survivors – 6.9 minutes

• Non-survivors – 7.06 minutes
