Abstract

Technology plays a critical role to save lives during the COVID-19 pandemic. This project proposes to develop a web and a mobile application to facilitate the dissemination of COVID-19 emergent medical protocols to treat COVID-19 screened patients in different medical specialties. These protocols are the result of the research developed by the Department of Surgery of the University of Saskatchewan. This project has three goals. First, share with health professionals medical protocols to treat COVID-19 screened patients and related cases. Second, support remote healthcare in rural communities of Saskatchewan. Third, make the developed web tools available on a large scale.
