Introduction.- Modeling the occurrences of earthquake casualties.- Logistic Regression Modeling the Length of Stay among the Hospitalized Patients after the 2010 Yushu Earthquake.- Modeling earthquake-related medical evacuation .- Modeling the medical rescue forces allocation in earthquakes.- Modeling the organization and command of earthquake rescue forces.- Modeling Location and Distribution of Medical Support Institutions.- Modeling hospital transition from peacetime to wartime.- Summary.

This book discuss a series of earthquake emergency medical rescue complex models, which can provide theoretical support for medical disaster rescue work in the future. This book consists of three parts. The first part is an introduction (chapter 1) which makes an overview of the purpose, meaning, methods and relative theory using in the research. The second part (chapter 2 to 8) includes “casualty flow” related factors such as the occurrences of earthquake casualty, the Length of Stay among the Hospitalized Patients, the medical evacuation in earthquake and rescue force related factors such as the medical rescue forces allocation in earthquake, the organization and command of earthquake rescue forces, Location and Distribution of Medical Rescue Institutions and from peacetime to wartime in hospital. The third part (chapter 9) is a summary including conclusion and policy-making suggestion.Editor Lu-lu Zhang is a Professor at the Institute of Military Health Management, Second Military Medical University, Shanghai, China.

Constructs a complex model system of the key factors of emergency medical rescue, based on casualty flow and rescue force Explores in depth the earthquake emergency medical rescue databank Constructs a series of complex models and conducted related simulation studies Analyzes intervention targets and key factors from previous research
