Abstract

Patients at a disaster scene can greatly benefit from technologies that continuously monitor their vital status and track their locations until they are admitted to the hospital. We have designed and developed a real - time patient monitoring system that int egrates vital sign sensors, location sensor, ad - hoc networking, electronics patients status. This system shall facilitate communication between providers at a disaster scene, medical professionals at a local hospital, and specialists available for consulta tion from distant facilities.
