Technical approaches
- Have a lot of code in UI Framework (GSP pages)
- Trying to do newer development with Angular 1.x + REST
- Investigating React
- pihcore module contains many of the PIH-specific core functionalities
Demonstrations
- Haiti system
- Paperless consult note
- Registration > Check-In (start visit)
- Vitals Capture uses queue of all patients checked in
- Chief complaint in free text
- Consult Queues
- Lists of patients ready for consultation
- Selecting patient takes provider to visit dashboard
- Consult Note
- Lists all forms associated with the encounter
- Users can randomly choose forms or step through them in order
- For example: Chief Complaint, Vaccinations, Supplement history, Allergies, Outpatient History, Physical Exam
- Encounter is saved (updated) as you go along
- Most code is Angular 1.x + REST
- Includes a print function
- Lab Tracking module
- Building for Mirebalais Hospital
- Labs can be ordered
- Would like to have section on dashboard to show recent orders
- Lab Tracking is used to record when sample is done and specimen(s) sent to lab
- At Mirebalais, labs are return via PDF file
- User can enter result and upload PDF as complex obs
- Working with a contractor to create much of the module
Questions
- What's going on with DHIS2 Integration?
- More aspirational. Priority in several sites.
- Running DHIS2 internally.
- Any plans/wish for draft encounters?
- Would use if it existed
- How are the encounters belonging to a visit recorded?
- An Angular-based app defines forms that go under an encounter
- Is PIH interested in/aware of current efforts to add "encounter diagnosis" as another element of encounter (equivalent to obs, orders)?
- How do patients get into queues?
- Queues are calculated (e.g., patient checked in without vitals within appropriate time frame shows in vitals queue)
- Given increasing oncology-related needs, are you aware of work at AMPATH and Uganda around Oncology (Johnblack, Chite, JJ)?
