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 integrates vital signs sensors, location sensors, ad-hoc networking, electronic patient records, and web portal technology to allow remote monitoring of patient status. This system shall facilitate communication between providers at the disaster scene, medical professionals at local hospitals, and specialists available for consultation from distant facilities.
灾难现场的患者能从持续监测其生命体征并追踪其位置直至入院的技术中大大受益。我们设计并开发了一个实时患者监测系统，该系统集成了生命体征传感器、位置传感器、自组织网络、电子病历和门户网站技术，以实现对患者状态的远程监测。该系统将促进灾难现场的救援人员、当地医院的医疗专业人员以及可从远程机构进行会诊的专家之间的沟通。
