abstract="The means of designing an effective user interface software package varies from one application to another. Almost the entire ICT infrastructure was damaged following the impact of the tsunami tidal wave. Under such circumstances, transporting critically ill patients is a must and becomes the first priority. Many considerations are needed when designing a specific user interface for emergency situations in developing countries. In this study we proposed how to design the user interface in order to support emergency medical care in the early stages of disasters. The user interface was classified into two tabs, firstly to indicate critically ill patients and secondly to notify details of the medicine having been administered to the patients. Classifying the user interface of emergency medical care information systems by using VHF radio connections will be beneficial, especially for the early stages of disaster-stricken developing countries, in order to preserve the lives of more victims.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>",
