Abstract

In this study, we analyzed the situation of the 119 emergency medical service zone of H town, countryside of Y city from January 1st, 2015 to December 31st, 2016 and then, on the basis of this analysis, we investigated the present condition of the patient-transportation service of the 119 emergency medical service to provide the basic data in order for patients to use the emergency medical service more efficiently. We analyzed the data with SPSS 21.0 using frequency analysis and, after positioning the virtual 119 emergency medical service, we analyzed the data of the transportation time and transportation distance by using GIS. The results of this study show that the use of the 119 emergency medical service for people over 65 years old represents approximately 57% of the total number of patients transported, The average distance and time of the real moving reaction are 6.41 km and 11.86 min, respectively. The distance and time from the pick-up location to the hospital are 18.24 km and 21.52 min, respectively. Given the present position of the 119 emergency medical service, the results of this analysis using GPS show that the (average) distance and time from the 119 emergency medical service to Jang * Ri town are 9.12 km and 12 min, and the (average) total distance and time to arrive at the hospital after the emergency medical service picks up the patient are 36.83 km and 62 min, respectively. In the case of the virtual emergency medical service, the total distance and time required to arrive at the hospital after the emergency medical service picks up the patient are 27.71km and 50min, respectively. The results of this study showed that the present position of the 119 emergency service does not provide the optimum distance and time from the patient's location to the hospital. Therefore, we consider that the repositioning of the 119 emergency medical center is necessary, in order to reduce the time required for the emergency medical service to move to the patient's location and then bring the patient to the hospital.

본 연구는 시골지역에 위치한 119지구대의 현황을 분석하고 이를 바탕으로 좀 더 효율적인 응급의료서비스를 이용할 수 있도록 공간적 배치의 기초자료를 제공하기 위해 Y시 H면에 소재한 119지구대를 중심으로 2016년1월 1일부터 2016년 12월 31일까지의 119지역대 환자이송 현황을 조사하였다. 수집된 자료는 SPSS 21.0을 이용하여 분석하였으며, 빈도분석을 실시하고, 가상적인 119지구대 배치 후 이송시간 및 거리는 GIS(Geographic Information System)를 이용하여 정보를 분석하였다. 연구결과, 119지구대를 이용율은 대부분 65세가 넘은 고령환자가 전체 이용환자의 57%인 수준이었으며, 실제 출동반응 현황은 현장도착 평균 거리는 6.41km(11.86분)이었으며, 현장에서 의료기관까지 소요되는 거리는 18.24km(21.52분)었다. 현재 위치하고 있는 119지역대를 중심으로 GIS를 이용하여 분석한 결과 장*리 마을로 9.12km(12분)이 소요되었으며, 환자발생지역까지 출동 후 다시 의료기관까지 가는 거리는 36.83km(62분)이 소요되는 것으로 나타났다. 장*리로 가상지구대를 설정한 경우 의료기관까지이 거리는 27.71km(50분)정도 소요되는 것으로 나타났다. 따라서 본 연구의 결과를 분석에 의하면 현재 소재하고 있는 119지역대의 위치는 환자발생지점에서 의료기관까지의 거리를 감안해 볼 때 적절하지 않은 것으로 나타났다. 이에 좀 더 많은 지역의 지구대를 중심으로 활발한 연구를 통하여 환자발생시 119지구대가 출동 시 최단의 거리와 환자 발생 지점에서 의료기관까지의 최단 거리등을 고려하여 현재 설치되어 있는 119지구대의 위치를 재고해야 될 것이다.
