title: ESMIS--a computer-based emergency medical services management information system. Part 1: Design procedure.
abstract: This paper investigates the problem of how an emergency case is taken care of from its location until the time the case reaches an emergency medical center or a hospital. The result of this investigation is an on-line Emergency Medical Services Management Information System (ESMIS). ESMIS is implemented using the TOTAL database management system. Part 1 outlines, in general, the steps of the ESMIS design procedure and concentrates on one step, namely the specification of ESMIS outputs.
