Abstract

Serious problems such as the shortage of medical settings and materials, as well as a nosocomial infection, have been recognized in hospitals of the world during the COVID-19 pandemic. Emergency medical space was the key material guarantee for the outbreak, and its systematic planning and reserve were needed in the pre-disaster phase. The purpose of the study is to chart the orientation and road for future research on standardized emergency medical space system design methods and R&D strategies on a global scale. Improve the global resource allocation ability of disaster emergency medical care and optimize the international emergency rescue guarantee system. In this study from the perspective of user demand, three types of field hospital cases that were widely used during COVID-19 were analyzed by analogy. It was found that the three types of emergency medical space had their strengths and weaknesses in the emergency response capability and treatment efficiency. The contents and results of the study are as follows.<BR> Firstly, combined with disaster emergency management and medical-related literature research. Medical staff, CDC managers, and inpatients who were involved in the treatment in Huoshenshan Hospital, Wuhan, China were interviewed and investigated. The types, behaviors, and needs of emergency medical space users were analyzed.<BR> Secondly, combined with the needs of users, the advantages that can be used for reference in the case were analyzed and integrated, and the design requirements of emergency medical space were deduced, including the structural design requirements for the whole disaster cycle, planning and design requirements for multi-type disaster treatment strategies, and functional module design requirements according to needs of different types of users.<BR> Thirdly, the development trend of the future emergency medical space was discussed, including the establishment of a global reserve mechanism, standardized design system and research and development platform, and information system to deal with the whole disaster cycle. The purpose was to provide a systematic method and strategy reference for the future development of the globalization of emergency medical space.
