Sažetak
Medical consultations between ambulances in rural areas and large medical centers are necessary for high quality health care. In particular, medical consultations between Croatian islands of Cres and Losinj and mainland medical centers in Rijeka and Zagreb are necessary for several reasons. Often, patient transport is not acceptable due to a high risk for the patient. In addition, transport generates additional expense and is often impossible in winter months due to weather and sea conditions, not to mention discomfort to the patient. In this paper, we describe a concept of a web-based system for medical teleconsultation. The system will be applied to communication between the islands of Cres, Losinj, and neighboring islands and university hospitals in Zagreb and Rijeka. The system consists of a teleconsultation module and a electronic Internet-based health record module. User interface is implemented in HTML and Phyton languages. WWW access to the system ensures platform independence, i.e. the system can be accessed using an ordinary Internet browser from any computer platform. The system is currently under development.
