Disasters destroy medical facilities – NO HOSPITALS, NO ORs
Disasters destroy local infrastructure – NO ELECTRICITY, NO WATER, NO FOOD, NO HEAT, NO LIGHT, NO STERILIZATION
Disasters destroy local supply lines – NO ROADS, NO AIRPORTS, NO REPLACEMENT EQUIPMENT, NO RESTOCKING SUPPLIES
Disasters may destroy personnel – LOCAL MEDICAL PERSONNEL ARE NOT IMMUNE FROM INJURY or DEATH
Disaster Management: The Problem
4th International Conference on Transforming Healthcare with IT 6th – 7th Sep. 2013 Hyderabad, India
Disasters destroy medical facilities – SELF-CONTAINED PORTABLE O.R., WARD, CLINIC
Disasters destroy local infrastructure – “IMPORTED” FOOD, ELECTRICITY, HOUSING
Disasters destroy supply lines – ALL RESOURCES MUST BE “IMPORTED” BY HELICOPTER
Disasters may destroy personnel – NEUROSURGEON IS USELESS w/o ANESTHESIOLOGIST, NURSES, SUPPORT STAFF (and TRAUMA SURGEONS, etc)
TELESURGERY is essential to provide personnel for immediate full-service Neurosurgery Disaster Relief
Disaster Management: The Requirements
4th International Conference on Transforming Healthcare with IT 6th – 7th Sep. 2013 Hyderabad, India
A Combat Support Hospital (CSH ) is a mobile hospital delivered in standard military-owned Demountable Containers (MILVAN) cargo containers and assembled by the staff into a tent hospital to treat wounded soldiers. The hospital is typically between 16 and 256 operational hospital beds.
The great operational advantage of the DEPMEDS facility is the use of single or double expanding milvans to create hard sided, air conditioned, sterile operating rooms and intensive care facilities, which can produce surgical outcomes similar to that seen in fixed facility hospitals, and do so in an austere environment.

Sometimes a disaster…
Can become an opportunity!(Bring together people for a humanitarian response)
4th International Conference on Transforming Healthcare with IT 6th – 7th Sep. 2013 Hyderabad, India
To facilitate the personal association of neurological surgeons throughout the world. To aid in the exchange and dissemination of knowledge and ideas in the field of neurological surgery. To encourage research in neurological surgery and allied sciences. To address issues of neurosurgical demography. To address issues of Public Health. To implement, improve and promote the standards of neurosurgical care and training worldwide.
World Federation of Neurosurgical Societies (WFNS) Mission Statement
4th International Conference on Transforming Healthcare with IT 6th – 7th Sep. 2013 Hyderabad, India
Portable OR w/ full infrastructure supportComplete medical/surgical & support staffMobilization by helicopter to disaster site < 24 hrsContinuously operating MEU will be ready for deployment at any timeIT for remote communication & surgery supportIdeally 4 (or more) sites: Latin America, Africa, Central Asia, Southeast Asia
Mobile Emergency Unit (MEU)
4th International Conference on Transforming Healthcare with IT 6th – 7th Sep. 2013 Hyderabad, India
Competitive application - similar to site selection for WFNS educational courses & meetingsIn conjunction with local neurosurgical/trauma unitLocated where the ongoing service need is great (underserved region)Located where tertiary backup available (e.g. by air transport)Two years support in a given location/country
MEU Site Selection
4th International Conference on Transforming Healthcare with IT 6th – 7th Sep. 2013 Hyderabad, India
Combination of ‘host country’ and ‘developed country’ staff, residents, and support (e.g. nursing)One month to one year term for all visiting staffStandardized training – curriculum developed by international organizations (e.g. WFNS)Integrated training of both ‘host country’ and ‘developed country’ residentsResident experience with IT + remote monitoring & surgery under challenging conditions by host country
MEU Staffing & Educational Benefits
4th International Conference on Transforming Healthcare with IT 6th – 7th Sep. 2013 Hyderabad, India
An ‘apolitical’ way the WFNS can foster universal neurosurgical standards for training and certificationExtended day-to-day association of staff from developed and developing countries – camaraderie Junior host country neurosurgeons will gain appreciation & respect for the WFNS missionResearch platform for trauma, remotely-guided surgery & disaster management ITImprove Public Health & neurosurgery worldwide
MEU Additional Site Benefits
