Outline of Final Research Achievements

This study aimed to develop a comprehensive emergency medical system model that is appropriate for resource-constrained settings, based on expert opinions. We obtained opinions of 32 experts from 12 countries to create the model which was compiled into a tool to evaluate emergency care system. The tool consists of 177 items, which are categorized into 8 domains: leadership, community-based activities, ambulance system, definitive care, upward referral, downward referral, aftercare (rehabilitation), and evaluation / research. The model and tool would provide a basis to evaluate emergency care systems in resource-constrained settings of low- and middle-income countries and to develop a plan to improve the emergency care system.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements

これまでの開発途上国の医療システムを評価するツールは、各医療施設の設備や能力について評価を行うもので、救急医療システム全体を地域単位で評価するものではなかった。本研究で作成したツールは、救急医療システムを全体として包括的に評価し、改善すべき点の明確化、改善のモニタリングに役立つと考えられる。また、都市部、農村部を問わず適用可能になっており、国全体としての政策決定能力も含まれ、地域のシステム改善から国全体のマスタープランにまで活用が期待できる。救急医療システムの改善は医療システム全体の強化に寄与するはずである。
