Abstract
In the high-pressure setting of ambulance-based care, conventional methods relying on verbal communication or identification documents often lead to errors and delays. To address these challenges, our proposal involves integrating biometric identification techniques using fingerprint scanning to retrieve patient data. The application ensures seamless integration with healthcare providers’ systems, guaranteeing rapid and secure access to essential patient data, particularly emphasizing its utility within the time-sensitive ambulance environment. This project is motivated by the urgent need to streamline patient data retrieval during medical emergencies, particularly for unconscious individuals. Existing systems are fragmented, causing delays and impeding healthcare providers from delivering timely and suitable treatment. By leveraging biometric technology, our goal is to significantly enhance response times and elevate patient care, ultimately saving lives. The significance of this project aligns with Saudi Arabia’s Vision 2030 goals of transforming the Kingdom’s healthcare system. It is also in harmony with the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals, particularly SDG 3, which seeks to ensure healthy lives and promote well-being for all. Anticipated outcomes of this project include the development of an advanced ambu lance application for efficient patient data retrieval during emergency medical care. This is expected to improve response times, enhance patient data security and privacy, and provide practical recommendations for real-world implementation.
