Abstract
The first author had the opportunity to participate in the deep vein thrombosis (DVT) screening project conducted by the Japanese Association of Medical Technologists as part of disaster support in the aftermath of the Kumamoto Earthquake. Through this experience, we recognized not only the importance of DVT screening but also the necessity of advance preparation for any disaster support. Therefore, we compiled the “List of medical technologists who can conduct DVT screening in the Seiban area” as part of advance preparation for disaster relief support and received cooperation from various individuals in this task. In the future, we plan to compile similar lists of medical technologists across Hyogo Prefecture and collaborate with other organizations.
