| description | Ambulance vehicles play a vital role in sustaining the life of injured persons
and should a provide safe transportation route to the medical institution. Transportation of
injured patients in severe/critical conditions should be carried out with high caution, as there
is no guarantee that patients’ health will not be harmed. The goal of this study is to
minimize exposure to the external factors such as random shocks, sharp jumps, vibrations
caused by irregular roads, speed breakers, weather, etc., that could influence the tasking
ability of the medical team and further threaten the life of the already injured patient. This
topic has not been widely researched and still requires implementation of novel standards
that should improve the safety of the patient. This article aims to define the biomechanics of
cabin occupant safety, introduce ways of collecting live data and develop new mechanisms
that would allow safer transportation of patients without any meaningful health deterioration
causing by the above-mentioned external factors. This study will identify safety hazards in
the ambulance environment and determine the effectiveness of suggested countermeasures
to mitigate any further injury or deterioration of the patient’s health. |
