Abstract

Fibrillation, a disorder characterized by an irregular and frequently abnormally fast heart rhythm, is one of the leading causes of heart attacks. There is solid evidence that the survival rate of sudden cardiac arrest patients who are treated with Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR) plus an Automated External Defibrillator (AED) is much higher. Despite the recommendation that automated external defibrillators (AEDs) be provided in the workplace, along with a proper management system and employee training on how to use the device, less than 70% of non-residential locations have one installed. The situation is significantly worse in residential settings, where less than 30% have an AED fitted. This paper focuses on the development of a medical drone management system that can supply. In the event of a heart attack, the patient or accompanying person can call a medical drone by sending coordinates to the drone station and a notification to medical staff. The drone station administrator can respond by sending the drone, which automatically lands at the patient's location. An app that can be installed on the patient's or accompanying person's mobile phone and tablet has been developed.
