Abstract

This study analyzed local imbalances in the supply and demand of emergency medical services in Busan using the 119 emergency activity reports of the Busan Fire & Disaster Headquarters. The data for EMS activity reports in 2017 was converted into Jimgyegu units. The spatial distribution of the indicators representing the local imbalance of emergency demand and supply (number of reports, number of reports relative to the population, average coefficient of variation and outlier of on-site arrival time, and number of dispatches outside the jurisdiction) was analyzed using Hotspot analysis of GIS spatial statistics analysis. As a result of the analysis, the hot spot area and the cold spot area where both supply and demand of emergency services are concentrated were clearly distinguished. This means that the supply and demand of emergency services in Busan are locally unbalanced. In particular, there was a difference in the demand and supply of emergency services in the original downtown and its surrounding areas, and in the outskirts of Busan.

이 연구는 부산소방재난본부의 119 구급활동일지를 이용하여 부산의 구급서비스의 지역적 불균형을 조사하였다. 2017년 구급신고 자료를 집계구 단위로 취합하여 구급서비스의 수요(신고건수, 인구대비 신고건)와 공급(신고건수, 인구대비 신고건수, 현장도착시간의 평균·변동계수·이상치, 관할구역 외 출동건수)의 공간분포를 GIS 공간통계분석 중 핫스팟분석을 이용하여 분석하였다. 분석결과는 구급서비스의 수요와 공급 모두 집중적으로 나타나는 핫스팟지역과 콜드스팟지역이 명확하게 구분되었으며, 이는 부산 내 구급서비스의 수요 뿐 아니라 공급이 지역적으로 불균형함을 의미한다. 특히 원도심과 그 주변지역과 부산시 외곽지역에서의 구급수요 및 공급에서 극명한 차이를 보였다.
