Abstract
In emergency cases the delay in receiving the necessary pre-hospital care results in a large number of deaths every year. Providing appropriate preliminary care, along with proper time management and pre-hospital management can contribute to a better survival rate. Here the authors propose a portable system which transmits the vital parameters to the health care center along with the images of the patient, also availing the patient's Personal Health Record to the doctor, thus bridging the gap between the hospital and the ambulance and “virtually” bringing the doctor to the ambulance, thereby allowing him to diagnose the patient remotely and as accurately as possible. The paper puts a glance on rapidly developing field of Tele-medicine while proposing a system to overcome infrastructure inadequacies, which hamper the efficient use of Tele medicine systems (more specifically emergency tele-medicine) and provide better health care facilities in various medical situations, specifically those pertaining cases of burns, fatal wounds, head injuries, pregnancy and other such emergencies.
