Nursing Homes, SNFs, Long-Term Care Facilities use Emergency Departments as Primary Care Offices for patients. Docs are on call for 3 or more nursing homes and may not know the patients so they send them to the ER when called.

Patient needs to stay informed of their progress through the emergency department stay.

I am a paramedic/fire fighter who lost my soul frequently as a field provider. I got disheartened with my career choice which has negative impacts on my patients outcomes.

EMS providers need a better way to communicate better with the ED to (1) provide information including images and 2-way chat and (2) receive guidance. I want to create a mechanism to facilitate this.

In out of hospital (paramedicine) cardiac arrest, we are severely limited in terms of manpower, resources, and ability to accurately document and track what was given. This is in stark contrast to in-hospital arrest, where a minimum of five people are recommended by the American Heart Association (airway, compressions, IV/meds, leader, documenter).

People aren't creating Advance Directives, which leads to (1) increased pain and suffering and (2) unnecessary cost. I want to create a simple, easy way for people to understand the options available to them and generate an advance directive form that communicates their wishes.

Updated translation device to the standard 2 phone setup that requires more than 5 minutes to setup a phone connection to the patient, since at least 7-8 times it will have to be done throughout the day. Something blending standard phone setup, to a photo, to a video stream if needed depending on connection.

1) Proactive mitigation of patient throughput bottlenecks. using predictive analytics.
2) Documentation of detailed and quantitative justification of patient testing, treatment, and disposition decisions - especially when diagnostic uncertainty is high.
3) Knowledge discovery, using BIg Data analytics against aggregated emergency medicine encounter data (Emergency Medicine Registry)

The problem of obtaining a complete and accurate medication reconciliation is made even more challenging with geriatric patients who may present to the ED with delirium or dementia and are not able to list the medications they are taking. This problem needs to have a solution that can stay relatively up to date, be comprehensive across all pharmacies that patients use, and be easy to quickly pull up in the ED.

1) Easy access to a bird's eye view of the patient's story - good for ER and outpatient providers
2) Utilizing dead time in ER to calm pediatric patients before procedures

Busy ERs with high turnover don't always afford the ER docs a chance to follow up on their patients to see if they made the right diagnosis and managed them appropriately. I want to see a clinical feedback system that automatically follows up on patients after their time in the ER that creates a report that lets doctors objectively know, and in comparison with their peers, how good their diagnostic/ clinical accumen is and what areas they can improve.

Geriatric patients often present from nursing homes with dementia or delirium and cannot provide their own clinical history or purpose of their visit. Documentation relies on faxed paperwork, scanned paperwork, word of mouth (from EMS sign-out), and occasionally from the referring doctor from the nursing home (if we can reach them). We need to do better- patients shouldn't languish in the ED for an hour before we realize why they're there!

Data pre-and inter-er visit arrives in a flood and is not prioritized. The goal would be for the negative and positive signs and symptoms (that is recorded in the physicians', nurses', and ems separate notes) be brought to the top of the chart in a chronological order to help summarize a diagnostic decision tree in real time.
