Abstract:
This idea of the software is to launch an initiative to encourage more
physicians to use electronic prescribing in terms of recording all medical
information about patients, their progress, and their examinations, and
take the first steps to full clinical automation. In addition , patients will carry
their medical history on their PDAs on the run. Elderly patients will get advantage of the reminder capabilities on their PDAs, which will set off an
alert according to the doctor's prescription, thus reminding the patient to take the appropriate pill at the appropriate time. The patient will be reminded of doctor's advice in terms of dos and don'ts while taking the medicament (e.g. , dosage, side effects, advisable food, and avoidable food). The patient will be able to retrieve his/her medical records via a synchronization process after being connected to the Internet.
