Real-time Audio-Visual Capture: Unlike EHRs that primarily record text-based data, Trauma Black Box captures comprehensive audio-visual information during trauma responses.

Environmental Data Integration: Trauma Black Box collects environmental data, which is typically not part of standard EHR functionality.

Consolidated Timeline View: While EHRs often show chronological event logs, Trauma Black Box provides a more comprehensive, integrated timeline of the entire trauma response.

Performance Analysis Tools: Trauma Black Box offers specialized tools for analyzing team performance, which goes beyond the scope of most EHRs.

Trauma-Specific Focus: This system is tailored specifically for trauma responses, whereas EHRs are designed for general patient record-keeping across various healthcare scenarios.
