Mobile technology in action in Haiti. Medical volunteers from Harvard Humanitarian Initiative are creating patient medical records on iPhones at an aid location near Fond Parisien using heavily customized iChart software from CareTools. The medical documentation, which is uploaded to a central server, also helps to create a record of survivors. This video taken in the makeshift field hospital shows Dr. Cote collecting information from a patient (in French), along with a photo. Video (6 minutes), FierceMobileHealthcare article. Perhaps the future infrastructure here is mobile?
