Zusammenfassung:	Described herein are methods and systems to send/receive medical data from one or more electronic devices to a secondary medical unit in delayed, intermittently-connected, low-bandwidth (DIL) environments. An application executing on the electronic devices may, in response to detecting a disruption within a communication network, execute an offline communication protocol to transmit medical data among a predetermined number of other electronic devices, wherein the offline communication protocol does not use the communication network. The application may then receive a request from a server of the secondary medical unit to transmit at least a part of the medical data. In response to authenticating the request, the application then transmits the medical data using an online communication protocol that uses the communication network or using an offline communication protocol.
