    AbstractIn this case, a mobile medical ID was used to inform an off-duty clinician of highly relevant medical history when attending a pedestrian during a medical emergency. Mobile medical IDs are available on all major smartphone operating systems and provide information including, but not limited to, medical history, current medications, and allergy status. These can be accessed from lock screens, allowing access for off-duty clinicians to improve the quality of care they could provide while awaiting assistance.Copyright © 2020 Elsevier Inc.
