This study introduces an e-health solution to improve emergency department (ED) care. The system connects patients and staff via apps, aiming to streamline the patient journey and enhance support before, during, and after visits.

Area of Science:

  • Health Informatics
  • Emergency Medicine
  • Patient Care

Background:

  • Patients lack support in deciding ED visits for illness or trauma.
  • Emergency Departments face challenges: overcrowding, long waits, administrative burdens, and poor follow-up.
  • Current systems do not adequately connect patients, caregivers, and administrative staff.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop an e-health solution for a patient-centered emergency care experience.
  • To improve the efficiency of emergency care processes for staff.
  • To enhance patient support throughout the entire emergency visit lifecycle.

Main Methods:

  • Development of an integrated e-health system utilizing web and mobile applications.
  • Connecting patients, caregivers, and administrative personnel within a unified platform.
