The aim of the present project was the development of an integrated computer-based system supporting training in medical and administrative decision making in the Emergency Department. The system comprises of, first, a module supporting on-line acquaintance with Emergency Medical Guidelines, second, a vital-signs monitoring and processing module, and finally an administrative module organizing the...
In the event of a large scale, biological or chemical terrorist attack it is unlikely that local emergency response organizations will have sufficient quantities of dedicated ambulances to evacuate all of the affected victims. As a potential solution to this problem, we have developed a device that can be retrofitted to a variety of government or civilian utility vehicles in order to convert them...

The world has recently witnessed several large scale natural disasters. These include the Asian tsunami which devastated many of the countries around the rim of the Indian Ocean in December 2004, extensive flooding in many parts of Europe in August 2005, hurricane katrina (September 2005), the outbreak of severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) in many regions of Asia and Canada in 2003 and the Pakistan...
In this work we propose a completely decentralized workflow system, based on peer to peer (P2P) computing, in order to support the procedures followed: a) when handling a patient in a hospital emergency health care department: b) telemedicine services needed during emergency cases or during remote patient examination and monitoring. The proposed architecture is an addition to an already existing telemedicine...
