Medical documentation

RNFLARM

I am a former electronics technician, sells person for Rockwell Software, and
now an RN. In President Obama's stimulus speech he mentioned that medicine
is far behind in the use of software to document and pass along orders
between doctors, patients, and nurses.

With your Voice Active technology and the Outlook program you have 70 to 80%
of the program code you need to make doctor's time more productive with
verbal orders converted to text. Also much more safe as the orders are plain
text easy to read by the nurses. Establish tasks that the patient's need done
with a priority set by the doctor or hospital protocols and communicate and
alarm on those tasks.

I used Outlook as my senior pharmacology project in nursing school and wrote
a paper on how HIV patients can manage and track the many medications that
they must use every day and maintain on a strict schedule.

Now I see the connectivity of doctor to nurse through wireless connections,
vital signs and blood sugar levels again communicated instantly to nurses by
wireless technology to enable nurses to be more efficient and safer by
knowing their patients vital body parameters before they administer
medications. The software could also let them know if blood pressures are too
low to give certain medications or other medications should be taken only
after food or on an empty stomach. All those points that a nurse has to keep
straight in their mind along with all of those other patient centered care
criteria they are planning or need to do.

And your suggestion is WHAT? Review your own post. Did you actually
make a suggestion? Nope. No one can possibly make any code changes
based on your vague description of usage and without any mention of just
what enhancement or change request you actually had in mind but never
divulged.

I'm not sure an email client is the best way to monitor a patient's vital
signs. That's more of an IM thing.
