TY - JOUR PY - 2011// TI - Scalable patients tracking framework for mass casualty incidents JO - Conference proceedings - IEEE engineering in medicine and biology society A1 - Yu, Xunyi A1 - Ganz, Aura SP - 860 EP - 863 VL - 2011 IS - N2 - We introduce a system that tracks patients in a Mass Casualty Incident (MCI) using active RFID triage tags and mobile anchor points (DM-tracks) carried by the paramedics. The system does not involve any fixed deployment of the localization devices while maintaining a low cost triage tag. The localization accuracy is comparable to GPS systems without incurring the cost of providing a GPS based device to every patient in the disaster scene.
