Application of Gamification Teaching in Disaster Education: Scoping Review

Application of Gamification Teaching in Disaster Education: Scoping Review

Disaster education and training can help people partly solve this problem by heightening disaster awareness and preparedness, thereby strengthening their resilience to potential threats. Hence, disaster education is important in the face of a global disaster crisis. One study has noted that traditional disaster education methods typically involve lectures or simulation exercises [3].

Accuracy of a Commercial Large Language Model (ChatGPT) to Perform Disaster Triage of Simulated Patients Using the Simple Triage and Rapid Treatment (START) Protocol: Gage Repeatability and Reproducibility Study

Accuracy of a Commercial Large Language Model (ChatGPT) to Perform Disaster Triage of Simulated Patients Using the Simple Triage and Rapid Treatment (START) Protocol: Gage Repeatability and Reproducibility Study

AI-guided triage could be particularly useful in disaster medicine, where circumstances may require inexperienced health care providers to perform triage. One can imagine triage performed by AI where the provider enters patient information as text, and the patient’s triage code is outputted. This might allow physicians, first responders, nurses, or even the patients themselves to perform triage. However, at present, it is unclear whether LLMs can provide sufficiently accurate triage for use in a disaster.

Implementation of the World Health Organization Minimum Dataset for Emergency Medical Teams to Create Disaster Profiles for the Indonesian SATUSEHAT Platform Using Fast Healthcare Interoperability Resources: Development and Validation Study

Implementation of the World Health Organization Minimum Dataset for Emergency Medical Teams to Create Disaster Profiles for the Indonesian SATUSEHAT Platform Using Fast Healthcare Interoperability Resources: Development and Validation Study

In Indonesia, disaster management is conducted by the National Disaster Management Agency (Badan Nasional Penanggulangan Bencana) [1]. Specifically, health issues during disasters are mandated to health clusters, whose members consist of regional health services, rapid health assessment teams, and emergency medical teams (EMTs) from various institutions. The health cluster collects, records, and reports information on survivors and their health conditions during a disaster [2].

Health Information Seeking on the Internet Among Patients With and Without Cancer in a Region Affected by the 2011 Fukushima Triple Disaster: Cross-Sectional Study

Health Information Seeking on the Internet Among Patients With and Without Cancer in a Region Affected by the 2011 Fukushima Triple Disaster: Cross-Sectional Study

In this sense, the 2011 Japan triple disaster provides an unprecedented case study for examining the use of internet-based health information in disaster settings. On March 11, 2011, a significant earthquake triggered a tsunami, which in turn precipitated a nuclear accident at the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant (FDNPP; Figure 1 [20]). The ensuing fallout significantly impacted the nearby city of Minamisoma, situated between 14 and 38 km north of the FDNPP [21].

A Community Mental Health Integrated Disaster Preparedness Intervention for Bushfire Recovery in Rural Australian Communities: Protocol for a Multimethods Feasibility and Acceptability Pilot Study

A Community Mental Health Integrated Disaster Preparedness Intervention for Bushfire Recovery in Rural Australian Communities: Protocol for a Multimethods Feasibility and Acceptability Pilot Study

Preexisting mental health concerns and mental health consequences of prior disaster exposure may also interfere with disaster preparedness [29,30]. Research has shown that community members with poor mental health are less likely to have either an emergency plan or household disaster supplies [29].

Mobile Apps to Support Mental Health Response in Natural Disasters: Scoping Review

Mobile Apps to Support Mental Health Response in Natural Disasters: Scoping Review

The PFA study involved 19 disaster health care workers who first underwent disaster simulation training using the mobile app. The included studies revealed several mobile phone apps used as interventions. The first, the TLS app, was used as a psychological first aid program for disaster survivors with content on information, psychological healing, and mood change [32].

Hospital-Level Implementation Barriers, Facilitators, and Willingness to Use a New Regional Disaster Teleconsultation System: Cross-Sectional Survey Study

Hospital-Level Implementation Barriers, Facilitators, and Willingness to Use a New Regional Disaster Teleconsultation System: Cross-Sectional Survey Study

To address this problem, the Administration for Strategic Preparedness and Response in the US Department of Health and Human Services launched a new program to develop regional disaster health response systems (RDHRS) as part of the national strategic response plan to support catastrophic disaster medical care [2].

Hemodialysis Record Sharing: Solution for Work Burden Reduction and Disaster Preparedness

Hemodialysis Record Sharing: Solution for Work Burden Reduction and Disaster Preparedness

Thus, sharing patient information is critical for disaster preparedness. After the GEJE, backup systems of clinical data were developed in many places in Japan, and Miyagi Prefecture launched the Miyagi Medical and Welfare Information Network (MMWIN), which saves patient clinical information obtained from medical facilities, including hospitals, clinics, pharmacies, and nursing homes [7].
