Computer-human interface solutions for emergency medical care

Quality medical care depends on prompt, accurate recording, communication, and retrieval of patient data and medical logistics information. In emergency medicine, such information can make the difference between life and death because it enables better planning and scheduling of medical resources. A hospital can assemble the appropriate team of specialists and configuration of equipment so that they are ready as soon as the patient arrives if medical providers in the field inform the hospital of the patient's condition when they first encounter the patient.
