Abstract

OBJECTIVE
We developed a Cocoon framework-based device independent electrocardiogram(ECG) Reporting System in order to support such various web devices as desktop Personal Computer(PC), Personal Digital Assistants(PDA) and SmartPhone.
METHODS
ECG Reporting System, built in the Cocoon framework, consists of modules of ECG Report Module and ECG Image Module. Two modules publish the applied ECG Report to each different templates according to the requesting device. The method of framework-based development in this paper features a reduction of development costs and the robust stability of system.
RESULTS
The medical staff may require patient ECG information in ubiquitous healthcare environment, ECG Reporting System supports their correct judgment and expeditious response by servicing ECG report of the patient according to the requesting device.
CONCLUSION
The proposed system and concept in this paper may be a good solution for developing the point of care service system supporting various mobile devices.
