Welcome to Medical!
Medical is a multi-user, highly scalable, centralized Electronic Medical Record (EMR) and Hospital Information System for openERP.
Objective :Provide a
free universal
Health and Hospital Information System, so doctors and institutions all over
the world, specially in
developing countries will benefit from a
centralized, high quality, secure and scalable system.
Medical at a glance:
- Strong focus in family medicine and Primary Health Care
- Major interest in Socio-economics (housing conditions, substance abuse, education...)
- Diseases and Medical procedures standards (ICD-10 / ICD-10-PCS)
- Patient Genetic and Hereditary risks : Over 4200 genes related to diseases (NCBI / Genecards)
- Epidemiological and other statistical reports
- 100% paperless patient examination and history taking
- Patient Administration (creation, evaluations / consultations, history ... )
- Doctor Administration
- Lab Administration
- Medicine / Drugs information (vademécum)
- Medical stock and supply chain management
- Hospital Financial Administration
- Designed with industry standards in mind
- Open Source : Licensed under GPL v3
The data model is designed in such a way that centralizes the
information, so no duplication occurs.
On the other hand, medical optimizes collaboration and communication
between health professionals. For example, a doctor may request an
specific lab test for a patient, this is processed by the pathologist
which diagnoses it and inputs the result on the system. The doctor now
has all the analysis information linked to the patient chart.
Medical allows to attach documents (X-rays, Biopsy results, ... ) to
the Patient chart.
Standards:
The information generated and gathered in Medical should be standard.
We use ICD-10 for pathologies / diseases diagnoses. For example,
instead of typing an arbitrary name for the condition, the doctor will
be able to choose from over 14000 mutually exclusive classified
diseases. This is very important for epidemiological and other
statistical studies.
Medical uses the information on genetics from the
National Center for Biotechnology Information NCBI and
Genecards to link genes disorders to diseases. This information is important to evaluate risks of the patient to contract an specific disease and the probability of transmitting it to next generations. Medical also registers all the relevant family history information of the patient.
Similarly, the patient history will be in a format that medical centers
all over the world would be able to process. Effective, paperless and
fast way of practising medicine.
Security:
It will follow the access control and security model of OpenERP 5.0
Internationalization:
The main language will be English, but it can be easily translated to
any other language using OpenERP 5.0 module translation. The Spanish
version will exist concurrently with the English version.
