| ABSTRACT |
BACKGROUND: The time lag and the difficulty associated with calling clinicians of other departments are major concern in the emergency department(ED). We tried to design a new paging system which was faster, easier, and more accurate.
METHOD: We made a web page comprised of paging numbers and then connected a personal computer in the ED to the internet through a dial-up modem, via a web-paging service, and could page persons wearing public pagers.
RESULTS:
We found that using the internet for paging was faster and more accurate than the hand-operated way. Calls were placed via the internet with only one click of the mouse.
CONCLUSION:
The One-click paging system is useful for hospital telecommunication. In this way, the internet can be applied to the entire emergency medical service system. |
