Because the noise is the main cause for decreasing the performance at speech recognition, the place or environment is very important in speech recognition. To improve the speech recognition performance in the real situations where various extraneous noises are abundant, a novel combination of FIR and Wiener filters is proposed and experimented. The combination resulted in improved accuracy and reduced processing time, enabling fast analysis and response in emergency situations. Usually, there are many dangerous situations in our city life, so for the smarter city it is necessary to detect many types of sound in various environment. Therefore this paper is about how to detect many types of sound in real city, especially on CCTV. This paper is for implementing the smarter city by detecting many types of sounds and filtering one of the emergency sound in this sound stream. And then it can be possible to handle with the emergency or dangerous situation.

Purpose: We explored emergency nurses' experiences of coping with moral distress. Methods: A qualitative research design was used. We conducted in-depth interviews with 11 nurses working at a regional emergency medical center in South Korea. Data were analyzed using conventional content analysis. Results: The main theme of nurses' coping with moral distress was "a passive emotion-based response." We also extracted three categories of coping strategies: "uncritical adaptation to anguished situation," "self-justification for not acting," and "flight from ethical decision making." Conclusion: Nurses coped with moral distress in a passive and emotional way, possibly because of perceived incompetence and compliance to an organizational hierarchy. The findings imply that effective approaches to addressing moral distress in emergency nurses are needed at the individual and organizational levels.

This study is a study on the interlocking method between emergency preparedness simulation model and military exercise war game model. The national emergency preparedness government exercises are being carried out by a message exercise and technology development for simulation models is being carried out to create a situation similar to the actual practice. In order to create a situation similar to the actual war, the military situation must be reflected and to do so, a link with the military exercise war game model is needed. The military exercise war game model applies HLA/RTI, which is a standardized interlocking method for various models such as Taegeuk JOS, and it is necessary to apply HLA/RTI linkage method to link with these military exercise war game models. In addition, since the emergency preparedness simulation model requires limited information such as enemy location and enemy attack situation on major facilities in the military exercise model, a method of interlocking that can select and link information is required. Therefore, in this study, the interlocking interface design plan is presented in order to selectively link the interlocking method and information between the emergency preparedness simulation model and the military exercise war game model. The main functions of interlocking interface include federation synchronization, storage and recovery, object management service, time management, and data filtering functions.

Purpose: We studied that EMT took care in prehospital care of cardiac arrest patients by "the chain of survial", we need the data about treatment of EMT in prehospital care of cardiac arrest patients. and then we want to educate EMT for their emergency skill and knowledge of prehospital care of cardiac arrest patients. Method: We studied 162 cardiac arrest patients were transported by EMT in Jecheon province, Chingbuk. Results: 1. Stage of Early Access 96.9% of people who related the cardiac arrest patients used the Jecheon 119 Rescue at their emergency situation. 2 Stage of Early CPR The EMT supported keeping of airway to 148 of 162 cardiac arrest patients. Artificial respiration was 120 of 162 cardiac arrest patients and chest compression was 119 of 162 cardiac arrest patients. 3. Stage of Early AED There were shocked 6 cardiac arrest patients but weren't shocked 156 victims of 162 cardiac arrest patients by AED. 4. Stage of Early ACLS There were reported 3 of 162 cardiac arrest patients. to Doctor or Hospital Emergency Center for medical direction to EMT in prehospital area. There is no advanced airway, IV insertion and medication to the prehospital cardiac arrest patients.

In Korea, Crowds, as well as more complex and larger structures, have been caused more victims in the event of fire. In that situation, EMSS should have done triage the patients according to their severity in the field, treat with standard guidelines as like advanced burn life support and transfer to appropriate facility. But in many cases, they didn't practice like that. The purpose of this study is to give basic data for proper emergency medical services by analysing EMSS of large scaled fire in Korea and suggesting some improvement methods. The improvment methods are like this ; First, developing of protocols about burn patient is needed for EMT and dispatcher. Second, Legal approval for advanced treatment is needed for EMT. Third, Fire-helicoptors are needed in Daejeon and Jeju. And Emergency Medical Helicoptors are needed in EMSS. Forth, more advanced emergency medical centers of burn must be established. Sixth, more pocket-mask and burn sheet are needed for 119 rescuer. Finally, building owners must change inflammable materials as non-inflammable materials and educate fire-prevention and first-aid to employees.

Recently, with the development of smart technology, in medical information platform, patient's biometric data is measured in real time and accumulated into database, and it is possible to determine the patient's emergency situations. Medical staff can easily access patient information after simple authentication using a mobile terminal. However, in accessing medical information using the mobile terminal, it is necessary to study authentication in consideration of the patient situations and mobile terminal. In this paper, we studied on medical information platforms based on big data processing and edge computing for supporting automatic authentication in emergency situations. The automatic authentication system that we had studied is an authentication system that simultaneously performs user authentication and mobile terminal authentication in emergency situations, and grants upper-level access rights to certified medical staff and mobile terminal. Big data processing and analysis techniques were applied to the proposed platform in order to determine emergency situations in consideration of patient conditions such as high blood pressure and diabetes. To quickly determine the patient's emergency situations, edge computing was placed in front of the medical information server so that the edge computing determine patient's situations instead of the medical information server. The medical information server derived emergency situation decision values using the input patient's information and accumulated biometric data, and transmit them to the edge computing to determine patient-customized emergency situation. In conclusion, the proposed medical information platform considers the patient's conditions and determine quick emergency situations through big data processing and edge computing, and enables rapid authentication in emergency situations through automatic authentication, and protects patient's information by granting access rights according to the patient situations and the role of the medical staff.

With the recent establishment of a ubiquitous-based medical and healthcare environment, the medical information system for obtaining situation information from various sensors is increasing. In the medical information system environment based on context-awareness, the patient situation can be determined as normal or emergency using situational information. In addition, medical staff can easily access patient information after simple user authentication using ID and Password through applications on smart devices. However, these services of authentication and patient information access are staff-oriented systems and do not fully consider the ubiquitous-based healthcare information system environment. In this paper, we present a authentication service model based context-awareness system for providing situational information-driven authentication services to users who access medical information, and implemented proposed system. The authentication service model based context-awareness system is a service that recognizes patient situations through sensors and the authentication and authorization of medical staff proceed differently according to patient situations. It was implemented using wearables, biometric data measurement modules, camera sensors, etc. to configure various situational information measurement environments. If the patient situation was emergency situation, the medical information server sent an emergency message to the smart device of the medical staff, and the medical staff that received the emergency message tried to authenticate using the application of the smart device to access the patient information. Once all authentication was completed, medical staff will be given access to high-level medical information and can even checked patient medical information that could not be seen under normal situation. The authentication service model based context-awareness system not only fully considered the ubiquitous medical information system environment, but also enhanced patient-centered systematic security and access transparency.
