Abstract
We developed an IT (Information Technology) triage system for collecting disaster medical information in real time. FeliCa cards and card readers are used to obtain the number and condition of patients. The system is composed of two elements. First, the number of patients for each triage level and the accepted number of patients in each diagnosis and treatment department are obtained in real time, including response for changing triage level. Second, this information is shared in real time among hospitals, the administration, and residents who are searching for their family. A disaster drill utilizing this system was held at the University of Yamanashi Hospital with 450 participants. From the result of that, the present system could work for those two elements. TRACY was examined its availability and practicability in this drill.
