Emergency Room-Equipped Ambulances

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

The Conceptual 'Life Knight' Ambulance Packs a Full Hospital

— February 14, 2019 — Autos
The conceptual 'Life Knight' ambulance is a different kind of healthcare vehicle that aims to accelerate the care capabilities of professionals when transporting a patient to the hospital.

The vehicle is outfitted with a full hospital within that can be used for quickly administering care to patients in rural areas where disaster may have struck or in developing regions. The expandable design of the vehicle will offer up to 26 wards for performing everything from routine injury care to more serious surgeries, depending on needs. This eliminates the need to drive patients to a traditional hospital to accelerate care capabilities and potentially save more lives.

The conceptual 'Life Knight' ambulance is the design work of professor Baojun Li, Prof. Mingliang Song and Zhifei Tian, and is the winner of the 2019 Red Dot Design Concept Aware.
Trend Themes
1. Emergency Medical Services Innovation - Developing ambulances equipped with a full hospital seeks to improve pre-hospital care and reduce patient mortality rates in disaster-hit or rural areas.
2. Mobile Healthcare Solutions - Creating fully operational hospitals on wheels ensures faster medical attention, reduces response times to emergencies and improves access to quality healthcare for people living in remote regions.
3. Innovative Hospital Design - Adopting expandable ambulance designs that offer up to 26 wards and multiple care options presents opportunities for hospital architecture development to improve mobile healthcare services.
Industry Implications
1. Healthcare - Expanding healthcare services to rural and remote areas by developing ambulances equipped with a full hospital creates new business opportunities in the healthcare industry.
2. Automotive - Innovative ambulance designs that offer more features increase customers' demand for customized vehicles and new business opportunities in the automotive industry.
3. Disaster Management - Implementing fully equipped ambulances in disaster-prone areas improves emergency response times and management, and presents opportunities for innovations in the disaster management industry.
