Nowadays Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) technology is becoming more and more common in neonatal department. This paper proposes a patient Electronic Medical Record (EMR) System based on RFID technology in neonatal intensive care unit (NICU). The system is such a proactive step to enable fast sharing of medical information with the clinical staff and families and avoid human-based errors that it makes the management of the NICU more effective and efficient. Besides the system architecture and functions are described, the database design and several key features of the software development are introduced too.
