AUGMENTED REALITY ENHANCED TRIAGE SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR EMERGENCY MEDICAL SERVICES
First Claim
1. An emergency medical services triage system comprising:
- a memory to store at least patient information, knowledge base information, and triage decision support information;
a virtual emergency medical record to be dynamically generated for a patient encountered by emergency medical services personnel, the virtual emergency medical record created to store and organize patient information obtained from the patient by the emergency medical services personnel at an emergency site to be transferred to an electronic medical record for the patient at a healthcare facility; and
a processor to process input patient information to implement;
an image recognition and search service to identify the patient based on one or more obtained images and to provide the patient information to the virtual emergency medical record generated for the patient;
a prior history service to search for prior clinical information for the patient and to provide the prior clinical information to the virtual emergency medical record; and
a triage decision support to process the input patient information and prior clinical information via the virtual emergency medical record to provide a) at least one of a treatment guideline and a diagnosis protocol and b) an instruction for transfer priority to a healthcare facility.

Abstract
An example system includes a virtual emergency medical record (vEMR) to be dynamically generated for a patient encountered by emergency medical services personnel, the vEMR created to store and organize patient information obtained from the patient at an emergency site to be transferred to an electronic medical record for the patient at a healthcare facility. The example system includes an image recognition and search service to identify the patient based on one or more obtained images and to provide information to the vEMR. The example system includes a prior history service to search for prior clinical information for the patient and to provide information to the vEMR. The example system includes triage decision support to process patient information and prior clinical information via the vEMR to provide a) at least one of a treatment guideline and a diagnosis protocol and b) an instruction for transfer priority to a healthcare facility.

18. A computer-implemented method of emergency medical services patient triage, the method comprising:
-
dynamically generating a virtual emergency medical record for a patient encountered by emergency medical services personnel at a location remote from a healthcare facility, the virtual emergency medical record created to store and organize patient information obtained from the patient by the emergency medical services personnel at the remote location to be transferred to an electronic medical record for the patient at a healthcare facility; identifying, via an image recognition and search service, the patient based on one or more obtained images and providing the patient information to the virtual emergency medical record generated for the patient; searching, via a prior history service for prior clinical information for the patient and providing the prior clinical information to the virtual emergency medical record; and processing, via triage decision support, the patient information and prior clinical information via the virtual emergency medical record to provide a) at least one of a treatment guideline and a diagnosis protocol and b) an instruction for transfer priority to a healthcare facility. - View Dependent Claims (19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24)
