Systems and methods for facilitating a first response mission at an incident scene
First Claim
1. A system for facilitating a first response mission at an incident scene, said system comprising:
- a plurality of portable modules for the incident scene and configured to transmit wireless signals; and
a processing system comprising;
at least one receiver to receive the wireless signals;
an environmental data processing engine configured to process data derived from the wireless signals to derive data indicative of an environment at the incident scene;
a situational context processing engine configured to process the data indicative of the environment to derive data indicative of a situation deemed to have occurred in relation to the first response mission; and
a decision making engine configured to process the data indicative of the situation and institutional data relevant to the situation to determine an action to be performed with respect to the situation, wherein the action comprises establishment of communication between a first responder at the incident scene and a clinician remote from the incident scene.

Abstract
Systems and methods for facilitating a first response mission at an incident scene, such as an accident site, a natural or human-made disaster site, or any other first response site. One system comprises a plurality of portable modules for the incident scene and configured to transmit wireless signals. The system also comprises a processing system, which comprises: at least one receiver to receive the wireless signals; an environmental data processing engine configured to process data derived from the wireless signals to derive data indicative of an environment at the incident scene; a situational context processing engine configured to process the data indicative of the environment to derive data indicative of a situation deemed to have occurred in relation to the first response mission; and a decision making engine configured to process the data indicative of the situation and institutional data relevant to the situation to determine an action to be performed with respect to the situation, such as transmission of a message to a first responder at the incident scene, establishment of communication between a first responder at the incident scene and a clinician remote from the incident scene, or transmission of a message to initiate preparation of resources at a healthcare facility remote from the incident scene for arrival of at least one patient transported from the incident scene.

21. A method for facilitating a first response mission at an incident scene, said method comprising:
-
receiving wireless signals transmitted by a plurality of portable modules at the incident scene; processing data derived from the wireless signals to derive data indicative of an environment at the incident scene; processing the data indicative of the environment to derive data indicative of a situation deemed to have occurred in relation to the first response mission; and processing the data indicative of the situation and institutional data relevant to the situation to determine an action to be performed with respect to the situation, wherein the action comprises establishment of communication between a first responder at the incident scene and a clinician remote from the incident scene. - View Dependent Claims (22, 23)

24. A method for execution by a first responder at an incident scene, said method comprising:
-
carrying a portable module in communication with a processing system associated with a healthcare facility; obtaining via the portable module an indication of an action to performed at the incident scene, the action being determined by the processing system associated with the healthcare facility; and performing the action, wherein the action comprises communicating with a clinician remote from the incident scene. - View Dependent Claims (25, 26, 27)
