PatientOS Free Healthcare Information System v0.1 released

PatientOS is a free healthcare information system designed to support hospitals and physician practices software needs.  The scope of the design is for physicians, nurses, pharmacy, laboratory and other departments.

 Version 0.1 is a proof of concept release only.  This version demonstrates how clinical applications are implemented using the extensive technical architecture designed.

Screenshots, video and the client download is available at http://www.patientos.org

Over the next few weeks the tools to submit requirements, stakeholder requests and contribute directly to the project will be available.

Install the client setup.exe software and run the proof of concept application within minutes (it will be sluggish over the internet, fast over a local area network).

thanks!

 Greg,

           Good to hear about PatientOS. I have posted your information to LinuxMedNews.com and hopefully the article will get picked up.

I applaud your release under (what I consider to be) a moral license. I have a reputation for being in "the know" with regards to Free and Open Source medical software and I would like to have an email interview with you regarding PatientOS. I do not ask softball questions (as the readers of this forum can attest) but if you would mind answering my  (hardball) questions, then I will post the resulting interview online at LinuxMedNews (or if they pass then I will post it at one of the other venues I post at like gplmedicine or free software magazine)

 Please contact me through http://www.fredtrotter.com if you are interested.

 

A few suggestions. 

You dont have to browse for orders - you can just type in a few letters in the text box below that quadrant to search by name.  I have to add some synonyms and more orders so you can get the feel for it.  Try just c or f etc.

In that lower quadrant (which is search results from the name or browse search) I was going to default physicians favorite orders (or perhaps a department or service default if they have none defined).  The data model is there, I just need to add a toolbar button and a right click.  I expect you will want to customize the default template for that order?  The template is an order used to set the default fields.

These templates (which are in the data model orders themselves) can have a default duration so the lab or pharmacy can build it into the template.

The data model is there for an order group but I have to implement and build groups of orders.  So you will be able to build 20 orders as a single orderable.

What does a lab template consist of - just orders and textual information at hand or is it more?

Oh by the way, I really appreciate your feedback - I know it takes up your valuable time!

Not sure what you would ask that would be hardball.  I released very early to get clinical involvement in the project.

But feel free to email me 'interview' questions.
