A method and system for managing cardiac rescue events is disclosed. Unlike prior systems, this method and system uses a rescue scene computer to obtain patient and incident data at the rescue scene and then marry that data with ECG rescue data and automated external defibrillator (AED) rescue data. All of this data is then simultaneously transmitted to a base computer at an emergency medical center for review. Accordingly, a reviewer at the base computer can immediately review the ECG and AED performance in context with patient and incident data. The method and system includes a Windows-based single screen graphical user interface for entering and reviewing the data and particularly includes a window for viewing ECG data simultaneously with entry and review of all other data available in the single screen user interface. The system and method comprises one or more of the following elements including a base computer, a portable rescue scene computer, an automated external defibrillator (AED), and a communication link for linking the rescue scene computer to the base computer and/or the AED. The system and method further includes software that is programmed in the base computer and rescue scene computer to operate the single screen user interface and database.
