ABSTRACT
Objective To avoid medical mistake,improve service quality of medical care,insure the security of patients. Methods The wireless Lan was deployed in ward to implement the scheme of using wireless Lan and avoid medical mistake,and then use wireless nursing system to prove it. Results This scheme can reduce the work intensity of medical staff,decrease the probability of medical mistake,and improve the service quality of medical care. Conclusion The wireless technology can avoid medical mistake effectively.
ABSTRACT
Embedded computing and wireless communication technology were used to develop a mobile biotelemetry system, featuring the functions of mobile measurement, wireless transmission, database archival, and internet retrieval of biomedical signals. Two PPCs (Pocket PC) with WLAN (wireless LAN) PC cards were used to simulate the communicating situation of biomedical signals between wireless sensors and a personal monitor. A PPC client program simulated the wireless sensors and a PPC server program simulated the personal medical monitor. Medical PDA was implemented by SBC (single board computer), LCD display, touch screen and Bluetooth module. Windows CE.net was ported as its operating system and the application program was developed using embedded Visual C++ 4. The measured transmission speed of ECG data was 2150 samples per second in the WLAN environment. For wireless internet connection, a Web-based server program was developed, able to display the biomedical signals of remote patients and be remotely monitored by medical doctors in a distant hospital. PDA data, which was archived at the server's database table, was transformed to an XML message and could be displayed on a Web browser as a signal graph. This system would be very useful for patients with chronic illness, especially in an emergent environment, and for containing medical cost in the aged society.

Objective To apply modern information technology to improve the holistic nursing quality, insure the medical security and offer essential conditions for administration of medical nursing, procedure control and medical treatment navigation. Methods Special clinical mobile nursing information system was developed based on 2-dimensional bar code, special wristbands, electronic medical record, LAN technology and mobile terminal solutions. Results The system not only extremely improved the work efficiency of ward-nursing and ensured the accuracy of nursing work during special executive course, but also updated the collection of the information on time and conquered a lot of limitation of traditional hospital nursing actions. Conclusion The successful application of clinical mobile nursing system will improve the medical quality, prevent the medical negligence, enhance the nursing efficiency and management level and relieve the labor intensity. Meanwhile, being practical and convenient, this system has high value in spreading.
