About HKJCDPRI Research Grant
The Hong Kong Jockey Club Disaster Preparedness and Response Institute (HKJCDPRI) Research Grant aims to strengthen community disaster resilience by supporting multidisciplinary research. The grant provides financial support to research projects that potentially benefit the development of evidence-based planning, policies and interventions for effective disaster management in Hong Kong.
Research Priority of 2016
Priority of Research Grant 2016 would be given to research project(s) that are related to knowledge and information management for disaster preparedness and response in Hong Kong, including disaster risk communication and self-reliance. Research projects related to disaster preparedness and response in Hong Kong are also welcome to apply.
Grant Amount
HKJCDPRI awards grants in varying amounts, depending on the number and type of requests received, the size and scope of the projects for which funding is requested. Grants up to HKD500, 000 are available depending on the scope of the project. All grants are made at the sole discretion of HKJCDPRI.

Background
Medical records are a tenet of good medical practice and provide one method of communicating individual follow-up arrangements, informing research data, and documenting medical intervention.
Methods
The objective of this review was to look at one source (the published literature) of medical records used by foreign medical teams (FMTs) in sudden onset disasters (SODs). The published literature was searched systematically for evidence of what medical records have been used by FMTs in SODs.
Findings
The style and content of medical records kept by FMTs in SODs varied widely according to the published literature. Similarly, there was great variability in practice as to what happens to the record and/or the data from the record following its use during a patient encounter. However, there was a paucity of published work comprehensively detailing the exact content of records used.
Interpretation
Without standardization of the content of medical records kept by FMTs in SODs, it is difficult to ensure robust follow-up arrangements are documented. This may hinder communication between different FMTs and local medical teams (LMTs)/other FMTs who may then need to provide follow-up care for an individual. Furthermore, without a standard method of reporting data, there is an inaccurate picture of the work carried out. Therefore, there is not a solid evidence base for improving the quality of future response to SODs. Further research targeting FMTs and LMTs directly is essential to inform any development of an internationally agreed minimum data set (MDS), for both recording and reporting, in order that FMTs can reach the World Health Organization (WHO) standards for FMT practice.
