Abstract: Abstract: Hospital today are under increasing pressure to increase the quality and efficiency of patient identification and monitoring procedures. Most patient health records are stored in separate systems and there are still huge paper trails of records that health-care providers must keep to comply with different regulations. This paper proposes an RFID-based system (named SIMOPAC) that integrates RFID and multi-agent technologies in health care in order to make patient emergency care as efficient and risk-free as possible, by providing doctors with as much information about a patient as quickly as possible. Every hospital could use SIMOPAC with their existing system in order to promote patient safety and optimize hospital workflow. In this paper we will concentrate on the RFID technology and how it could be used in emergency care in order to identify patients and to achieve real time information concerning the patients' biometric data, which might be used in dif!
ferent points of the health system (laboratory, family physician, etc.). We describe a general purpose architecture and data model that is designed for collecting ambulatory data from various existing devices and systems, as well as for storing and presenting clinically significant information to the emergency care physician.
Keywords: E-health, Electronic Medical Records, RFID, Emergency Care, Embedded System.
