Emergency medicine involves the care of patients who require immediate medical attention. The specialty encompasses a broad range of medical disciplines, including anaesthesia, cardiology (a field related to the heart), neurology (a field related to the brain), plastic surgery, orthopaedic surgery (surgery relating to the bones or muscles), and cardiothoracic surgery (surgery relating to the heart, chest, or lungs). There are also a number of subspecialties including extreme environment medicine, disaster medicine and sports medicine. Related to emergency medicine is the specialty of critical care medicine, which is concerned with the care of patients with life-threatening conditions often treated in intensive care settings....

Disability inclusion of children in disaster management means to identify and then eliminate the challenges faced by children with disabilities during disaster occurrence. The present research aimed to explore how the challenges of children with disabilities can be resolved in disaster management. Qualitative content analysis was used to compare individual-stakeholder-based disaster management with all-stakeholder disaster management considering three stakeholders: developed nations, developing nations, and international organizations. A key finding is that these stakeholders must shift from the individual-stakeholder-based approach to the all-stakeholders approach while enhancing disaster medicine, education, monitoring, and implementation stages. A comprehensive framework of disability inclusion is proposed to reflect effective disaster management for these children.

Proper Response

Many of the world leaders in emergency medicine and in disaster medicine systems have made advances in these fields, and I compliment them on the accomplishments that I have seen over the years. Dr. Safar charged me to look ahead, if that is possible, and offer some perspective—obviously my own—on the next five to ten years. Hopefully, our future can be controlled in certain limits. Toynbee philosophized that when new and unanticipated challenges are presented, they represent great opportunity for response. If we fail to respond or if we respond in an inappropriate way, we may become a fossil in history—in this case, in the history of medicine. I have attempted to look at important challenges that I see in emergency medicine, and to predict from these a course that I think represents a proper response.The first challenge, one that you have heard of before, clearly is the most important one. It is the challenge of limited or relative resources. The term “relative” means that fraction of a country's or region's output or wherewithall that is available in a logical or rational way for emergency medicine.

Rudolf Frey, known as “Rolf“ in Europe and “Rudi” in America — a leading star of anesthesiology, emergency medicine and disaster medicine — has ended his life's struggles. He influenced many lives positively. His years were rich with experiences and contributions.Surgery and anesthesiology were his base specialties. Alone, these fields would have been too narrow for him. He initiated the first professorship of anesthesiology in Germany at the University of Heidelberg in the 1950's; the first autonomous university department of anesthesiology in Germany at the Gutenberg University of Mainz in 1960; the journalDer Anaesthesist, the first textbook of anesthesiology in German; one of the first physician-staffed advanced life support ambulance and ambulance helicopter services in Europe; numerous training programs, symposia and congresses; and theClub of Mainzand its associated monograph seriesDisaster Medicine, originally published by Springer-Verlag.
