Yokohama City Digital Headquarters Press release: October 1, 2024 [YOKOHAMA Hack!] Get the sick and injured to the hospital quickly! We will conduct a demonstration project to facilitate emergency activities! “YOKOHAMA Hack!”, a matching platform for digital emergence and co-creation As emergency demand continues to increase due to the aging of the population, in Yokohama City, the time required for emergency operations (the time from the dispatch order to the handover by the doctor) is being extended. We have recently put out a call for solutions to extend emergency response times through “YOKOHAMA Hack!” and received applications from six companies.As a result of our selection, we have concluded agreements with three companies. In order to respond to the demand for emergency services, which is expected to increase in the future, we are conducting a demonstration project to facilitate emergency operations, such as sharing basic information (names, symptoms, etc.) of patients and patients between emergency teams and medical institutions.

*OCR: Abbreviation for Optical Character Recognition/Reader, a function that recognizes the text part of image data and converts it to character data 2 Implementation details The emergency team enters the basic information of the injured person (name, symptoms, photo of situation, etc.) into a tablet device, transmits the data to the hospital, and makes a phone call as usual to confirm the need. The doctor who received the call will check the data while talking and will verbally respond whether or not the application is accepted. In addition, after the patient is transported to the hospital, the doctor’s signature, etc., which previously had to be written on paper, will be written on a tablet and handed over to the patient.
