EMERGENCY-112:
An Integrated Portable Device for Emergency Telemedicine
European Commission, 4th Framework - Health
Telematics Applications Programme
The
objective of this project will be to develop an integrated portable
medical device for emergency telemedicine. This device will
facilitate the reduction of treatment time, improve medical
diagnosis, and reduce costs. The transmission of critical biosignals
(ECG, BP, HR, SpO2, Temperature) and Images to an emergency
call center will enable physicians to direct pre-hospital care
more effectively, leading to a reduction in mortality.
The
Co-ordinator of this project is the National Technical University
of Athens, Greece and the other partners are: ATM Group, Sweden,
ESAOTE SpA, Italy, R&S Informatica, Italy, CPR - Pisa
Hospital, Italy, Universitetssjukhuset MAS, Sweden, Epsilon
Software, Greece, Medical Diagnosis&Treatment L.T.D, Greece,
PANAFON Hellenic S.A., Greece, AMBULANCIAS ALVAREZ, S.L, Spain,
University of Cyprus, Ministry of Health, Cyprus.
