INTRODUCTION An emergency services team is launched to treat a man who collapsed in the street. The team takes John Doe’s mobile phone, and within seconds retrieves the required clinical parameters from his Mobile Medical Record (MMR) thus providing a life-saving treatment suited to his personal health condition.  Have the necessary clinical parameters, required at emergency situations, ever been examined in order to best match both emergency situations and cellular technology? OBJECTIVES: Characterization of the clinical parameters which assemble an MMR in the context of saving life and propose a model for an MMR in emergency medicine. METHODS: Characterization of the essential emergency medicine clinical parameters in the context of life-saving treatments, through interviews with prehospital and hospital experts in emergency medicine.  Supported by a Cellular multimedia expert, analysis of the results in order to incorporate the clinical parameters into the cellular world as an MMR. RESULTS: Emergency medicine teams chose individual and specific clinical parameters in a certain order of appearance from the general medical record which should assemble, in their opinion, emergency medicine MMR.  MMR was chosen by the emergency medicine treatment teams as one of their preferred communication method among the possible communication methods presenting a patient medical record in the context of life-saving treatment.  CONCLUSIONS: The MMR model, if applied correctly, will provide the emergency medicine treatment teams an available, reliable, homogeneous database of real time clinical parameters adapted to life-saving conditions.  The MMR model represents a conceptual revolution of taking out the medical record from the caregiver and transferring it to the patient, which can be constantly at hand at any given time or place. By doing so, the MMR contributes and becomes integrated with the leading approaches in the world of medicine supporting a patient-centered care policy.
