Develop and Operationally Test a Digital Internet Based Information System for Theater Digital Force Health Protection and Disease Surveillance

Abstract

The medical objective was to provide for current command priorities which included daily DNBI reports by medical units to the C2. The current DNBl reporting was performed in theater and used a daily handwritten count collected by visiting each medical unit - BAS to the CSH in theater. Human error created several problems that could be solved utilizing a digital system with primary identification data capability and automatic compiling for reporting. The system must meet with user needs and with command needs, as well as fit the communications architecture and be supportable based on the level of personnel training in theater.
