Abstract

The main priorities of emergency medicine are to rescue lives and to limit the damage to life and limb of the patient as much as possible. The emergency physician analyzes the situation at the accident scene and chooses the appropriate first aid methods as well as the follow-on medical techniques at the hospital. The goal of CANIS - the Carinthian Notarzt (emergency physician) Information System - aims at the establishment and optimization of the information stream between the emergency rescue vehicle (ERV) or emergency rescue helicopter (ERH), and/or the receiving hospital. To achieve this, a feasible hardware setup must be established which meets the challenging requirements of an emergency situation.
