“…Dumka and Sah [18] propose, in emergency cases, a smart ambulance equipped with information and communications technology to aid the ambulance staff to treat the patient in a more efficient and effective way. Aski et al [19] proposed a lightweight access control framework that enables the users to access encrypted data and devices in two modes: attribute oriented access and emergency break-glass access.…”

In emergency situations, different actors involved in first aid services should be authorized to retrieve information from the patient’s Electronic Health Records (EHRs). The research objectives of this work involve the development and implementation of methods to characterise emergency situations requiring extraordinary access to healthcare data. The aim is to implement such methods based on contextual information pertaining to specific patients and emergency situations and also leveraging personalisation aspects which enable the efficient access control on sensitive data during emergencies. The Attribute Based Access Control paradigm is used in order to grant access to EHRs based on contextual information. We introduce an ABAC approach using personalized context handlers, in which raw contextual information can be uplifted in order to recognize critical situations and grant access to healthcare data. Results indicate that context-aware ABAC is a very effective method for detecting critical situations that require emergency access to personal health records. In comparison to RBAC implementations of emergency access control to EHRs, the proposed ABAC implementation leverages contextual information pertaining to the specific patient and emergency situations. Contextual information increases the capability of ABAC to recognize critical situations and grant access to healthcare data.

“…These matters motivate us to propose a solution for this problem. Privacy is a matter in medical records storing and transmitting; besides medical records need to be protected from unauthorized access but be available timely during emergencies [4]. The question of our research is how can healthcare professionals access electronic medical records in case of emergency in a timely and secure manner?…”

Blockchain technology is a fast-evolving sector that has proposed value in different domains. A distributed healthcare system for managing electronic medical records has various significant advantages in comparison to centralized healthcare systems. In a distributed system without a central authority, many threats such as data leakage by human mistake or a single point of failure are no longer feasible. A small number of recent research have proposed healthcare systems that have used IPFS and Blockchain as part of their security and storage components. Both have a transparent process and clear logic as a distributed system. In emergency care, access to medical records is an indisputable need to make efficient decisions fast. Current regulatory and bureaucratic processes make it near impossible to serve the data in a timely manner. This research designs a model of a break-glass mechanism for EMR management systems to provide access to healthcare professionals just in case of emergency. This conceptual model provides access to patients' records with regard to patient privacy and data security, which they set previously by themselves.
