Discussion

Simulation demonstrates improved response time in OHCA cases in Taipei, suggesting drone integration in EMS may enhance delivery efficiency.

A maximum flight time of 7 minutes led to optimal response time reduction for OHCA incidents.
The simulation shows 90% OHCA case coverage achieved with the strategic placement of 13 drone bases.
The study utilized an optimization model to evaluate the effectiveness of drone deployment in emergency healthcare.
This approach highlights the feasibility of incorporating drones into emergency medical services for timely AED delivery.

Wu et al. (2025) studied this question.
