Cologne algorithm
The Cologne algorithm is a model for measuring the medical service at major events . It was released in 2006.
Planning the mission
The deployment is planned in five steps. These are a necessity test, spatial planning according to the deadline model, strength planning according to the frequency model, the inclusion of special features and the consideration of the management organization.
Risk factor
A risk factor is determined before the algorithm is applied. Important parameters are the weather, the audience, a possibly occurring traffic jam effect, a suboptimal meeting place and empirical values. The risk factor increases when a characteristic applies. The weather must be taken into account if the temperature is above 25 ° C or a humidity above 50% is expected. If the audience consists mostly of seniors or teenagers, the risk factor also increases. Also to be included are the accumulations of visitors in certain areas and conditions, which can lead to the emergency service being able to work only to a limited extent.
Necessity test
The necessity test takes place in three steps. First, the frequency of use is estimated. This is determined on the basis of the duration of the event, the simultaneous use of visitors and the estimated medical services. The performance of the rescue service is then assessed. As a third step, the tactical necessity is determined on the basis of yes-no statements.
Spatial planning
Spatial planning in the relief period model takes place with a specified time in which an injured person is to be cared for on the premises. This is usually specified by a state law. The focus of spatial planning is on a division into guard districts. The method takes into account the parameters of the audience and local characteristics.
Strength planning
Strength planning is based on two pillars: risk assessment and defense planning. The duration of the event, the visitors present at the same time, the risk factor and an estimation factor for the medical service are included as factors.
Result
The result differentiates between mobile units and stationary units (UHS). The personnel and qualifications of the medical teams, emergency teams or emergency teams deployed are precisely defined.
