Abstract:
Public Hospitals in Pakistan suffer from lack of funds, low level of staff and bulk of patients to be treated at one time and they do not have any automated system to treat patients expediitiously and efficiently and are lagging behind in providing quality health services to the patients. Currently there is no proper mechanism to maintain and share the patient data and no standards are being followed in this regard and there is no availability of health data as needed by private and government bodies like Insurance providers, Government agencies, College & Universities , Pharmaceutical Companies etc.
As for now the registration of a patient,profiling,history maintanence is done using paper which results in a bundles of paper files which is extremley hectic and difficult to maintain by the hospital administration, there is no mechanism for sharing of data in inter-hospital or intra-hospital departments, the process is slow as well, more importantly the data generated in manual form is huge and it is not used for data analysis for improving health standards which can lead to new search domains in medical field.
Pediatric Oncology department in PIMS suffers the same problems we intend to solve this problem by developing a standard compliant and fully automated system which will be divided in modules handling every phase of the patient treatment starting from patient registration till the diagnoses.
The server side of the system will be implemented using J2EE, Spring, Hibernate which are amongst the most advanced technologies in web domain.Front side of the system will use AngularJs which allows implementation of flat client applications, these applications reduce the work load on server side which is a cutting edge to use this framework on client side.
