causes of morbidity and mortality worldwide, with patient outcomes heavily dependent on the
speed and quality of pre-hospital care. Traditional emergency response systems often face
challenges such as delays in communication, limited real-time monitoring, and the lack of
predictive tools to assess patient conditions en route to medical facilities. These limitations can
lead to prolonged response times and suboptimal patient outcomes. The emergence of 5G
technology, with its capabilities for ultra-low latency and high-speed data transmission,
presents a transformative opportunity to enhance emergency healthcare delivery. When
integrated with wearable biosensors, AI-driven diagnostics, and telemedicine, 5G enables
continuous monitoring of patients, real-time data sharing with healthcare professionals, and
remote medical assessments, even before the patient reaches the hospital. This seamless
connectivity facilitates faster decision-making and enables emergency medical services (EMS)
teams to be better prepared with critical patient information upon arrival. The proposed system
leverages these technological advancements to create a more proactive, data-driven approach
to emergency response, optimizing route planning for EMS teams, predicting potential
complications, and improving coordination between emergency responders and healthcare
providers, thus aiming to significantly reduce mortality rates and improve recovery outcomes for patients suffering from cardiac and stroke events.
Summary of the proposed invention:
