Over 150 million emergency calls are made each year in the United States (US). Different technologies have been introduced to help the Emergency Medical Systems (EMS) to correctly diagnose, monitor, and locate victims correctly to ensure the preservation of the maximum number of lives but the use of infrared imaging in this field is totally new. The purpose of this study is to describe infrared imaging features of clinical emergency and accident victims in order to verify it's useful as a quick, non-invasive and efficient manner to accurate triage information. Infrared imaging identified different features at traumatic (hypoxia, thoracic trauma, hipovolemic shock, spinal cord injury, peripheral vein access) and non-traumatic emergency (heart attack, stroke, headache, acute abdomen) that can serve as triage information and patient monitoring.
