    One of the most important aspects of responding to a medical case is the response time. In general, most fatalities are due to the patient not being able to reach the hands of the doctor in time. This also includes the arrival of medical equipment to the scene. The human brain will start to degrade in function after 3 minutes of oxygen starvation which conventional road transportation method first responders presently use is usually unable to reach the site in 3 minutes, resulting in fatalities during transport or before the arrival of first responders at the scene. Therefore, medical equipment transport by fully autonomous aircraft is explored. This is done through drone deliveries which is much quicker than road methods as the equipment could be flown straight to the site. In this project, we will explore an aerial delivery system for medical equipment such as Automatic External Defibrillators (AEDs), First aid equipment, and other small requested medical devices. This will be done through a DJI drone platform and their SDK application. The main goal for this project is to decrease the response time by using an autonomous aerial drone to deliver medical equipment. We have found that the drone is a capable platform to deliver an AED to a patient through the collected flight data and basic testing which provided us a great platform for further development of the system.

    One of the common causes of a heart attack is fibrillation, a condition that causes an irregular and often abnormally fast heart rate. There is scientific evidence that the survival rate of sudden cardiac arrest patients who are rescued with cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) and with the use of an automated external defibrillator (AED) is significantly increased. Despite the recommendation that automated external defibrillators should be installed in the workplace, along with a proper management system and training for employees on how to use the device, less than 70% of non-residential areas have an AED installed. The situation is even worse in residential areas, with less than 30% having an AED installed. This research concerns the development of a medical drone managing system that can deliver an AED in case of emergency. An application was developed that can be installed on the mobile phone and/or tablet of the patient or the accompanying person. In the event of a heart attack, the patient or the accompanying person can call a medical drone by sending coordinates to the drone station and a notification to medical staff. The drone station administrator can respond by sending the drone, which automatically lands at the patient’s location. After being tested in a simulation situation, the operational field test yielded satisfactory results. The medical drone can land within 1.5 meters of the destination. The designed AED drone can be used not only to deliver AEDs, but also first aid kits and prescribed drugs suitable for medical care. Such a system is especially useful in the current context of the COVID‐19 pandemic.
