Abstract
In this paper, the authors present a business rules-based decision support system for the allocation of traumatized patients. The assignment of patients to vehicles and hospitals is a task that requires detailed up-to-date information. At the same time, it has to be carried out quickly. The authors propose supporting medical staff with an IT system. The proposed system could be used in cases of mass incidents, as it is problematic, but essential, to provide all injured with adequate healthcare as fast as possible. The contribution is a system based on business rules, which is a novel approach in this context. Its feasibility is proven by prototypic implementation. In this paper, the authors describe the development project’s background as well as the system’s requirements and implementation details. The authors present an exemplary scenario to show the strengths of the proposed approach.
