Give it a thought ???
What if you saw a car crash on some of the local roads in your locality ?
● Your first reaction would be ?
● What would you do ?
● If you do not know the person yet wish to help what would you do ?

Let's assume that


● Your shocked meaning a panic state of mind
● Call out for help
● Call for the ambulance
Did you know ?
Sometimes in such a scenario a little can be the difference between life
and death.
In India, there is one Advanced Life Support Ambulance for an average
of 5 lakh people.
● Lack of Ambulance availability
● Lack of Ambulance equipments and staff
● Never ending Traffic
● Major Road accidents
● Lack of Medical emergency system
● Lack of early Response time
Problem Definition
India is a vast country and owing to its immense size basic lifestyle and healthcare facilities may only be available
to some. Being the most populated country in the world, receiving health care facilities for everyone takes work.
About 70% of the young Indian population have suffered minor and major road accidents.In certain situations the
possibility of saving the patient is high but the lack of health care requirements makes it difficult to save such
individuals. India’s network of ambulance services could play a key role here, but it falls short on several counts. It
is disorganized, lacks adequate equipment and trained staff, and has poor regulatory mechanisms. It is well
established that about 50% of road crash deaths can be averted if victims receive definitive medical care within the
first hour. However, India does not have a centralized platform with reliable information on the number, type,
distribution and ownership – public or private – of ambulances. Death during ambulance travel is also one of the
major issues due to the uneven roads and heavy traffic in India. Even a minute matters in such critical situations.
Providing medical services to Indians is a major issue due to many factors - Lack of facilities, economic issues and
even superstitious beliefs . Certain areas of this problem can be addressed.
This aligns with SDG 3: good health and well-being, SDG 9: industry, innovation and infrastructure SDG 17:
partnership for the goals
To Curtail To Each And Every Issue In A Diverse Country Like India Is

● Wound Management and Blood Loss Control: The robotic arms can perform
precise procedures like cleaning, stitching, and dressing wounds, or applying pressure
to control severe blood loss. Under the guidance of a remotely located doctor, these
arms ensure that immediate care is administered even before reaching the hospital.
● Temporary Fixes for Critical Stabilization: In cases where patients have life-
threatening injuries, the robotic arms can provide temporary fixes, such as securing
fractures or administering injections, giving the patient a better chance of survival
during transit.
● Reduced Workload for Paramedics: With the CPR robot handling compressions,
paramedics can focus on other important procedures and monitor vital signs without
the physical strain of manual CPR, improving overall care.
● The Smart Ambulance only requires one driver and one paramedic trained to operate
the robotic systems and other onboard machinery. This streamlined setup reduces
staffing requirements while maintaining a high level of emergency care.With the
virtual doctor operating the robotic arms, the paramedic can work closely with the
doctor, ensuring all interventions are executed correctly and promptly.
● By minimizing the number of staff needed onboard, the Smart Ambulance system
maximizes efficiency without sacrificing the quality of care, making emergency
response faster, scalable, and more cost-effective.
