The Research of Mobile Emergency Healthcare Information System in Taiwan

Abstract

Nowadays the quality of healthcare has been improved gradually. However, the processing time of healthcare is too long, and causes a lot of regrets about pre-hospital emergency. The minimization of time required for providing primary care and important consultation to patients is one of the crucial factors when trying to improve the healthcare delivery in emergency situations. The purpose of the study is the development of a Mobile Emergency Healthcare Information System (MEHIS). A Standard Operation Procedure of Emergency Healthcare (SOPEH) is first planned. Then, the system is developed for EMT or families of patients to communicate with physicians in hospitals when accident happens. Users can use their 3G mobile phone to transfer symptoms and information of the situation to JSP server. Therefore, the system delivers information quickly and provides proper emergency care in the first time. Meanwhile, MEHIS can short emergency healthcare time, and enhance quality of emergency healthcare.
