iHRIS Manage is a human resources management tool that enables an organization to design and manage a comprehensive human resources strategy. iHRIS Manage is developed by The Capacity Project, an ... [More] innovative global initiative to help developing countries build and sustain the health workforce. iHRIS Manage helps an organization manage its workforce more effectively and efficiently, while reducing costs and data errors. iHRIS Manage is primarily intended to be used to manage health care workers employed by a country's Ministry of Health, a hospital or other large health care organization, or a private provider of health care services. However, it may be readily adapted to other types of organizations and workforces. [Less]

iHRIS Qualify is a health worker training, licensing and certification tracking system. The system enables a licensing or certification authority for a health worker cadre, such as nurses or ... [More] physicians, to track data on the complete cadre in a country from pre-service training through attrition. This system is also capable of tracking continuing medical education attained by health workers, capturing data about foreign-trained workers applying to work within the country and recording out migration verification requests. iHRIS Qualify is developed by The Capacity Project, an innovative global initiative to help developing countries build and sustain the health workforce.

iHRIS Plan is planning and modeling software developed to improve planning for health workforce needs in developing country settings. This software uses data from iHRIS Manage and iHRIS Qualify to ... [More] form a complete picture of the health workforce in the country. It then projects how that workforce will change in the future based on known influences such as retirement age, the number of trained health workers annually entering the workforce and other factors. This projection is compared to the projected health workforce needs over the same period, visually displaying the gap between actual workers and needed workers. iHRIS Plan is developed by The Capacity Project, an innovative global initiative to help developing countries build and sustain the health workforce.

======================== Application description: The Jasper Patient Tracker is a Java Swing and MySQL application designed for a clinic or a small doctor's office. ... [More] ========================================= The basic problem application will solve: This application is free forever so the likelihood an organization trying the application is increased. Adaptation of software in the health care IT industry has traditionally been guarded. Authors Dana Blankenhorn and Paula Rooneyof in a 08/02/2007 article entitled "What is stalling open source in healthcare?" cite proprietary advantage and bureaucracy keeping adoption of the open source Medsphere at bay (http://blogs.zdnet.com/open-source/?p=1272). A health care IT user or developer debugging the inner workings of the application might gain enough trust to the application to approve it for use. Currently there exist no SourceForge open source Java Swing patient tracking or Java Swing EHR application as a SourceForge project at the time of this writing. A search on SourceForge using "(+public +health +patient)" produced one open source application "eBed - Surge Capacity for Public Health", whereas "(+public +health +patient +swing)" produced a zero listing. A web application was ruled-out due to insecurities and reliability. One such application can be found as a PHP solution at MirrorMed at http://www.mirrormed.org. Our application is explicitly non-web. Another application, Open Dental at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open_Dental, has up to "1,000 dentists using OD, and guess 10,000,000 patient records" although it is based on .Net C#. Java Swing has a far wide base of code developers to increase the likelihood of attaining committers to the project. A forum for applications which process basic EHR (Electronic Health Record) transactions can be found at http://www.doctorsgadgets.com/forum/open-source-medical-software. Our application has EHR as a basic component in tracking patients. ================== Technologies used: Java Swing was selected to allow the application to operate in a closed computer network. The application is designed for multiple users. For example, a receptionist and a practitioner can use the application simultaneously. The native database is MySQL through JDBC although provisions will be made to connect to other databases. All database SQL statements are transaction based. Installation is through Java Web Start to ease IT management. The targeted platforms are Windows, Mac, and Linux. The initial committers are versed on the Windows and Mac computers. The application is designed with Spanish as the first multi-language to reach the greatest adoption on the American continent. The provision for another language will later facilitate other languages besides English and Spanish. [Less]

The Baobab Voluntary Counseling and Testing (VCT) System is currently used in more than ten sites throughout Malawi. It allows clients to anonymously be tested for HIV, Tuberculosis, and other ... [More] diseases. Registration clerks, counselors and lab technicians enter the collected information into Baobab touchscreen systems in real time. Though counseling, referrals, and general awareness are the primary goals of any VCT centre, data collection analysis are a close second. Until now, Baobab has used a proprietary data model for all of the data collection. With the latest release, Baobab has developed a set of SQL scripts that allows existing VCT deployments to migrate their data to the OpenMRS data model. By registering triggers in the MySQL database the system can continue to update the OpenMRS database as the VCT data is updated. This allows site facilitators to utilize open tools for analyzing the VCT data. Why OpenMRS? The Open Medical Record System is a common framework upon which medical informatics efforts in developing countries can be built. It is currently in use in Rwanda and implementations are being built around the world. Using a shared data model across disparate installations and regions enables wider analysis of successes, failures, and general trends. The shared data model will enable each site to improve care based on the comparable results, successes, and assessed need making a better experience for each client. What about the Front-end? At this time we are not releasing the Visual Basic frontend code that writes to the old data model and gets triggered into OpenMRS. We are happy to share the code - just get in touch. [Less]
