    SHORT REPORT Disaster medical assistance in super typhoon Haiyan: Collaboration with the local medical team that resulted in great synergy Hoon Kim, M.D.,1 Moo Eob Ahn, M.D.,2 Kang Hyun Lee, M.D.,3 Yeong Cheol Kim, M.D.,4 Eun Seok Hong, M.D.5 1Department of Emergency Medicine, Inje University Ilsan Paik Hospital, Goyang, Korea; 2Department of Emergency Medicine, College of Medicine, Hallym University, Chuncheon, Korea; 3Department of Emergency Medicine, Wonju College of Medicine, Yonse University, Wonju, Korea; 4Department of Trauma Surgery, National Medical Center, Seoul, Korea; 5Department of Emergency Medicine, Ulsan University, Ulsan, Korea ABSTRACT BACKGROUND: On 8 November 2013, Typhoon Haiyan made landfalls over the center of the Philippines and devastated the region. Soon aftermath of the disaster, many foreign medical teams (FMTs) headed toward the site, and the Korean team was one of them. METHODS: This study described the experiences of the team during the initial phase of response, focusing on collaborative efforts with the local medical team. RESULTS: The Korean team was capable of providing primary care, and the Filipino team provided incomplete secondary care which was insufficient for covering the patient load. Not only did the Korean team provide electricity for hospital operation and various materials, but also supplemented medical personnel, who covered the emergency and outpatient departments. Collaborative efforts filled in each other’s gap, and resulted in great synergy. CONCLUSION: Disaster medical relief mission of FMTs should be cooperated with a coordination mechanism. Collaboration with the local resources can be a great opportunity for both parties, and should not be overlooked in any disaster situations.
