Abstract

This review explores the impact of telemedicine, mobile health (mHealth) applications, and point-of-care ultrasound in disaster scenarios. A comprehensive literature review was conducted using databases such as PubMed, MEDLINE, and Google Scholar to identify relevant studies on technology in disaster medicine. The findings indicate that telemedicine significantly enhances communication and coordination among emergency teams, mHealth applications improve patient tracking and triage, and point-of-care ultrasound provides rapid and accurate diagnostics in disaster settings. These technological advancements have contributed to efficient and effective disaster response efforts, highlighting the critical role of technology in modern disaster medicine.
