Abstract

A technical device, hereinafter referred to as a life-saver, characterized in that the identity of a person who is, for example, involved in an accident, injured, and / or unresponsive, can be clearly established by means of at least one scanner (e.g., fingerprint scanner and / or ophthalmometry scanner). This identification, similar to the function of a password, allows access to a database. The contents of the database, or the data relating to the identified person, may include, for example: 1. Personal data: Name, address, employer, relatives to be notified (contact details of these). 2. Medical data: Blood type, vaccinations, pre-existing conditions (including allergies, intolerances), medications, suitability for defibrillator use. 3. Advance directive (including when life-prolonging measures should be discontinued). 4. Funeral arrangements (including where and how the burial should take place, funeral service, etc.). 5. Will (among other things, legally handwritten, scanned). 6. Organ donation consent: To be willing to receive and / or donate organs.

Description

[0001] Life-Safer is a technical device that, as the name suggests, is designed to save lives. In the event of an accident, sick or injured person is often unresponsive. The arriving rescue personnel or emergency physicians can use the Life-Safer to clearly identify the patient (fingerprint scan and / or iris scan) and access a database. This provides them with important information about the patient (e.g., age, blood type, relatives, pre-existing conditions, allergies, intolerances, medications, defibrillator usability, advance directives, funeral instructions, last will and testament, organ donation consent).

[0002] Life-Safer can not only display and print this information on a monitor, but also forward it to the hospital providing further treatment (over the air, e.g., via an internet connection and / or cell phone network and / or satellite connection). This not only significantly simplifies, expedites, and speeds up initial care, but also allows the appropriate preparations to be initiated and optimized in the hospital providing further treatment. Overall, the patient can receive much faster and more effective care, which can save their life. It also virtually eliminates the possibility of incorrect treatment.

[0003] Anyone can create, view, modify, and update the data and information stored in the database on an Internet page.

[0004] People without internet access or computer skills can also have their data created and updated by doctors' offices and clinics for a fee, or by a company that does this for Life-Safer.

[0005] The necessary initial scan of the fingerprint and / or eyes can also be performed and created in doctor's offices or clinics for a fee.

[0006] However, the fingerprint scan is also carried out by town halls when applying for a new identity card and could therefore easily be used or activated for life savers as well.

[0007] Information such as blood type, vaccinations, previous illnesses, allergies and intolerances, and organ donation status are, by definition, personal health data (Article 4 No. 1, No. 15 GDPR). This data may only be processed if expressly permitted. Consent is required to enable an exception to the prohibition on processing health data (Article 9 (2) (a) GDPR).

[0008] However, the customer can easily give this consent to Life Safer (e.g. by signing a written document, personalized access to the website via password, TAN procedure via mobile phone or internet or two-factor authentication or multi-factor authentication, also e.g. via SMS).

[0009] The data can be viewed and modified, for example, by at least one parent / guardian, an authorized person (e.g. a doctor) and / or at least one authorized organization or company and / or a legal guardian.

Claims

[1] Technical device, hereinafter referred to as Life-Safer, characterized by that the identity of a person who has been involved in an accident and / or is injured and / or unresponsive can be clearly established using at least one scanner (e.g., a fingerprint scanner and / or eye scanner). This identification can, similar to the function of a password, enable access to a database. The contents of the database or the data on the identified person can include, among other things:

1. Personal data: Name, address, employer, relatives to be informed (contact details of these).

2. Medical data: blood type, vaccinations, previous illnesses (including allergies, intolerances), medications, use of defibrillator.

3. Patient directive (including when life-prolonging measures should be terminated).

4. Burial instructions (including where and how the burial should take place, funeral service, etc.).

5. Will (e.g. legally handwritten, scanned).

6. Organ donation consent: To want to receive and / or donate organs. [2] Life-Safer according to claim 1, characterized by that the scanner(s) are integrated into the housing of the Life-Safer. [3] Life-Safer according to claim 1 or 2, characterized by that a scanner consists of a separate device or the scanners consist of separate devices and are connected to the Life-Safer via a wired connection (e.g. via at least one cable). [4] Life-Safer according to one of claims 1 to 3, characterized by that a scanner consists of a separate device or the scanners consist of separate devices that are connected to the Life-Safer wirelessly or over the air (e.g. Bluetooth, WLAN; Internet, mobile phone network, satellite, etc.). [5] Life-Safer according to one of claims 1 to 4, characterized by that it has at least one internal data storage device (e.g. a hard disk) on which the database data is stored. [6] Life-Safer according to one of claims 1 to 5, characterized by that it has at least one interface through which the data can be added to the database from outside (e.g. external hard drive, memory stick). [7] Life-Safer according to one of claims 1 to 6, characterized by that it has at least one receiver via which the data from the database can be received wirelessly or over the air (e.g. Bluetooth, WLAN, Internet, mobile phone network, satellite, etc.). [8] Life-Safer according to one of claims 1 to 7, characterized byThat it has at least one transmitter through which the data of the identified person can be transmitted wirelessly or over the air (e.g., Bluetooth, WLAN, internet, cell phone network, satellite, etc.). The data can then be forwarded, for example, to the hospital providing further treatment (-> better preparation for the patient). [9] Life-Safer according to one of claims 1 to 8, characterized by It must have at least one monitor and / or at least one display to display the database data. The monitor and / or display can be integrated into the lifesaver and / or consist of separate devices connected to it via a wired connection (e.g., via at least one cable) and / or wirelessly or over the air (e.g., Bluetooth, WLAN; internet, cellular network, satellite, etc.). [10] Life-Safer according to one of claims 1 to 9, characterized byIt must have at least one printer for printing the database data. The printer can be integrated into the Life-Safer and / or consist of a separate device connected to it via a wired connection (e.g., via at least one cable) and / or wirelessly or over the air (e.g., Bluetooth, WLAN; internet, cellular network, satellite, etc.). The printer can have its own monitor and / or display. [11] Life-Safer according to one of claims 1 to 10, characterized by that it has its own power supply (e.g., at least one battery and / or at least one rechargeable battery, both of which can be easily removed and replaced).
