The stand alone level-1 Ryder Trauma Center in Miami, Florida sees over 3,000 admissions of seriously injured patients on an annual basis. The Ryder Trauma Center is a vertical representation of the battlefield. This living laboratory parallels the same process as the military battlefield. Dr. Augenstein has been a leader in the areas of development, research and implementation for trauma informatics for over well over 25 years. Recently technology has begun to catch up with the needs of busy clinicians. Portable devices like Pocket PC's or IPOD's have surfaced as usable tools in the medical arena. Although these new tools are being used in the medical field to further research, testing still needs to continue in order to meet the demand required in complex environments. |
