Abstract

The aim is to present our "Patient Keeper " application which is a client-server medical application. "Patient Keeper " is designed to run on a mobile phone for the client application and on a PC for the server application using J2ME and JAVA2 respectively. This application can help doctors during their visits to their patients in hospitals. The client application allows doctors to store the results of their diagnosis on their mobile phones such as temperature, pressure, medications, analysis etc, and send this information to the server via SMS for storage on a database. The server can also respond to any request form the client and send the result via Bluetooth, infrared or Over The Air.
