Title
Cloud-Based Personal Health Information Broker For Emergency Medical Services
Abstract
Emergency medicine, under the National Institute for Emergency Medicine or NIEM, is medical care that covers pre-hospital services for unscheduled ill or injured patients, without discrimination. In emergency situations, if the victim is unconscious then accessing updated personal health records by the rescue team is necessary. Accessing patient records, especially in emergency cases, enables proper treatment before arriving at the hospital. This project proposes a cloud platform for storing and managing medical information, and a collaborative model for connecting and facilitating community members in updating personal health records, especially for the five most common conditions, namely heart disease, hypertension, diabetes mellitus, chronic renal failure, and pregnancy. Our main challenges in retrieving and integrating the necessary data are circumventing privacy laws, technical issues arising from different data standards, and quality of the data. For the pilot study, we have initiated a field trial in the province of Ubon Ratchathani, Thailand.
