Abstract :
A new advanced medical emergency system has been proposed and designed to facilitate and computerize all the processes involved in an emergency. The proposed system contacts the ambulance emergency system, locates the correct and nearest available ambulance, accesses a Smart Online Electronic Health Record (SOEHR) that can critically assist in pre-hospital treatments, and identifies availability of the nearest available specialized hospital all through communication with the Hospital Emergency Department System (HEDS) which provides early and continuous information about the incoming patient to the hospital. Emerging and advanced technologies such as mobile web services, SOA, SOAP, HL7 and GPS have been extensively used to design, develop and integrate all system components.
