Medical Treatment Capability Analysis using Queuing Theory in a Biochemical Terrorist Attack
نویسندگان
چکیده
Biochemical terrorist attack will cause a large number of victims flock to the nearest hospital in a short period of time. It is necessary that these victims get medical treatment in the “golden hour”. In this paper, we proposed a method by formulating this into a transient non-steadystate system of Queuing Theory. The method can provide model and algorithms for the decision support systems of emergency management by calculating the arrival rate of victims and the medical treatment capability.
