Abstract

Limited access to past medical information of emergency cases during emergency healthcare delivery is a proximal cause of increasing emergency care length and risk. Hence, there is a need for ubiquitous access to integrated emergency patient information at the point of care in order to effectively and efficiently manage emergency cases and to apply the appropriate diagnosis and treatment procedures. In this paper, a cloud-based service-oriented architecture (SOA) is described for the implementation of an electronic emergency patient record system (E-EPR) that provide functionality for managing (retrieving, transforming, exchanging and storing) emergency case information and patient critical medical information in a distributed and ubiquitous manner that supports several platforms and applications. The proposed system can be easily integrated with existing ambulance service and hospital information systems because of the use of open-wide standards. An experimental implementation of the system in a simulated laboratory environment is presented.
