Abstract

anywhere, that’s why first aid is needed. The creation of the application was to achieve a way to deliver adequate knowledge to people for handling without professional help on the site of an accident or an emergency. Most people are usually not knowledgeable in what to do in first aid situations, and that is because nobody has had easy access to the necessary information it requires. The aim of the study is to create an application that gives awareness and knowledge to people on the various methods and practices on first aid care. The purpose of this study is to develop the Mobile Application for Managing Common Emergencies by using the prototyping methodology together with the conceptual framework. The application has been designed by considering necessary functions such as location service and first aid treatment information. The result of the development and testing are discussed. The application will educate and instruct the users on how to perform proper first aid. Giving the people ways or the means to help people in need instead of waiting for help to arrive. The researcher was able to develop an application with the first aid registry of all the newer first aid procedures all certified by Philippine Red Cross to give access to everyone on what to do to administer first aid procedures. Using the ISO 25010 The evaluation yielded positive results, with Functional Suitability scoring an overall weighted mean of 4.19, Performance Efficiency at 4.04, Usability at 4.31, Compatibility at 4, and Portability at 4.39. Utilizing a confusion matrix with Weka Software, the application demonstrated an 88.2353% correctly classified instances and 11.7647% incorrectly classified instances, indicating the effectiveness of the algorithm. This study can be possessing significant potential for increasing students learning in term of some accident occurrence and enhancing their learning effectiveness using mobile application-based learning. It can be developed and implementation especially in health-related units or courses.
