The emergency response system and trauma services in Malawi are quite disorganized and at many times non existent. Even a 10 minutes reduction of the medical response time can be statistically associated with an average decrease of the probability of death by one third. By enabling the first responders at the crash site to conduct efficient triage, the medical staff can quickly recognize which victims need to be taken to a healthcare facility and which can be treated on-site. If the critical victims are identified as early as possible, they can be transported in the emergency vehicle to the nearest healthcare facility. This Thesis Project revolves around that issue and attempts to improve it by asking, "Could a deployable, pre-fabricated mobile emergency response unit help reduce the on-site road traffic accident mortality rate in Malawi?"
