Abstract :
This paper focuses on the use of a discrete simulation tool ( Simio ) to explore simulation of casualty treatment in wartime. Through the use of Simio simulation platform, visual simulation model of casualty treatment was developed, based on analysis of the casualty treatment task and process in wartime. Then, a personnel allocation in an operating room was tested using the model developed by simulation experiment. The casualty treatment simulation can help more accurately model the flow and medical treatment of wartime casualties in treatment network, and simulation model developed can support medical resources estimation and test resources allocation.
