Abstract
In an integrated web-based software system for tracking and managing patient care reports associated with emergency medical transport trips, a thin web-based client is viewable through the Internet, including wirelessly from within emergency vehicles, and communicates with a main system that is designed around a core layered architecture with at least one system database and a web-based interface. The system facilitates report entry and delivery to hospitals and end-user administration, including the ability to create new fields and tabs for the run form, notifications about relevant data conditions, continuous reporting capabilities, and on the fly data updates. The system particularly provides the options of prefilled web forms, report and field administration, changeable data entry, automatic information sharing to destination facilities and internal departments, quality assurance notifications, summary data, and data mining, as well as optional interfaces to Third Party software products commonly used in the industry.
