摘要:Medical records provide an important role in the process of providing health care in hospitals and in various types of medical institutions. Medical records play a vital role in maintaining the information of the entire patients which includes the basic information, medical information, history of operation and medication etc. These medical records have been produced for the purpose of identifying a patient. In this paper, a novel method for identification of patients using the Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) technology is proposed. This paper explains the concept of electronic medical record and explains how to use RFID based technology in order to create an electronic medical-card for patients. The proposed methodology also aims to identify patients quickly in the case of emergencies using the magnetic card reader device, which provides detailed medical information for the patient file. It also helps the doctors who are present in the ambulance of patient. The proposed methodology is importance in some emergency cases where patients cannot provide their information to the hospital because they didn’t know their identity and medical history.
