Abstract:

Over a period of decades there are lot of frequent disruptions due to natural, man-made and technological disasters which are seriously effecting the society, environment and economy. Hence it is vital that an effective integrated disaster management must be defined by integrating various types of disasters for being equipped in real time to face disasters in an extremely short span of time. In this paper a framework for disaster management is defined based on cloud and internet of things. A disaster management use case is developed based on the defined framework by integrating natural and man

In India, the colossal loss of life and property, the social and economic disruptions caused by the increasing frequencies and severity of natural disasters has increased awareness on natural disaster management at all levels including political circles.

It is in this context that disaster management as an important issue draws attention of various stakeholders in the disaster management co

Abstract:

A disaster may be defined, for this paper, as “a situation in which an urgent need arises for international assistance to relieve humansuffering.” Disasters are frequently divided into manmade and natural disasters. Many so-called natural disasters have, however, a considerable manmade component in their etiology. The number of people vulnerable to the effects of disasters is increasing, and in the future disasters affecting human beings are likely to occur with greater frequency and severity, Full account must also be taken of the effects of a rapidly expanding world population, of advances i

Abstract: Emergency and disaster are on the rise in the world. One of the most important components of disaster risk management is the early warning system. Studies have shown divergent models of warning systems with different structures. However, since no systematic review of early warning systems in disasters has been conducted so far, a systematic review of the models, components, and structures of these systems is essential. This protocol is a systematic review study, which aims to evaluate the existing warning systems and their structure. An Early Warning System (EWS) represents the set o

Hence, NATO has assumed an important role in international disaster relief by becoming involved in the provision of relief following natural disasters, all these being in accordance with the founding principles of the Alliance.

Disasters, whether natural or caused by humans, pose serious threats to human life and well-being. Events like cyclones, earthquakes, and heavy rains are often natural, but human activities can make their impacts worse. According to the United Nations Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), climate change caused by humans has increased the frequency and severity of extreme weather events worldwide. In India, rapid urban growth, deforestation, uncontrolled industrialization, and poor land use have made people more vulnerable to both natural and human-made disasters. Additionally, new

Abstract:

“The Club of Mainz for Improved Emergency and Disaster Medicine Worldwide” was founded in 1976 by ten concerned resuscitologists from seven countries under the leadership of the late Rudolf Frey, who then was Chairman of the Department of Anesthesiology at the Johannes Gutenberg University in Mainz, West Germany. The Club was founded because the potentials of modern resuscitation and life support are not realized in most everyday emergencies and natural and manmade disasters throughout the world. The idea was initiated in discussions between Frey and Safar during the International Symposium on

Abstract:

Purpose: Ghana has suffered some disasters both natural and manmade. Several natural disasters have occurred from the days of biblical Noah until now. These natural disasters have taken various forms; floods, earthquakes, volcanic eruption tsunamis, tornadoes, landslides, hurricane, and among others. Within the past decades, natural disaster has become a global pandemic which hampers economic and social development. This global phenomenon has affected over 6 million people and cause economic damage of approximately $870,700,000 in Ghana .it is necessary or advisable to ascertain the causes of

Disasters, either manmade or natural, call for rapid and timely actions. Due to disaster, all of the communication infrastructures are destroyed, and there is no way for connection between people in disaster and others outside the disaster range. Drone technology is the critical technology for delivering communication services and guiding people and monitoring the unwanted effects of a disaster. The collaboration of advanced technologies can reduce life losses, save people’s lives, and manage the disaster crisis. The network performance of collaboration between the Internet of Things (IoT) and

Abstract:

A disaster can be any occurrence that can cause damage, ecological disruption, loss of human life, deterioration of health and health services on a scale, sufficient to warrant an extraordinary response from outside the affected community area (WHO). A disaster can be defined as an occurrence either natural or manmade that causes human suffering and creates human needs that victims cannot alleviate without assistance (American Red Cross ARC). Disaster has been classified into natural disasters such as flood, earthquake, cyclones, tsunami, drought, landslides, pest attacks, forest fires, avalan

South Sudan is the newest country in the world - it has been experiencing recurrent conflict and climatic shocks such as flooding and hunger, creating a protracted humanitarian situation where 9 million people – three-quarters of South Sudan's population – are projected to require humanitarian and protection assistance in 2024. Two million people remain displaced due to decades of conflict, intercommunal violence and extreme effects and events of climate change, such as flooding and dry spells (OCHA 2024). Lack of coherent early warning identifiers and adequate monitoring mechanisms exacerbate

AbstractOngoing provision of pharmaceuticals and medical supplies is of key importance during and following a disaster or other emergency event. An effectively coordinated response involving locally available pharmacy personnel—drawing upon the efforts of licensed pharmacists and unlicensed support staff—can help to mitigate harms and alleviate hardship in a community after emergency events. However, pharmacists and their counterparts generally receive limited training in disaster medicine and emergency preparedness as part of their initial qualifications, even in countries with well-developed

Mitigating disaster risk, prompt rescue and timely evacuation decision during such disaster can prevent loss of lives and properties. The evacuation decision is the choice of people to stay away from the area of risk.

Objective: Disasters, both natural and manmade, have become commonplace and emergency physicians serve on the front line. Residency may be the only time that emergency physicians are exposed to a disaster, through training, until one happens in their department; therefore, it is critical to provide residents with appropriate and timely disaster education. The goal of this study was to assess the current status of disaster education in emergency medicine (EM) residencies in the United States.Methods: A list of disaster topics was generated by reviewing disaster literature and validated by subje
