Project: Patient Medical Timeline

Brief explanation: This is basically an idea taken from facebook timeline. Just like we have the timeline in facebook, we could have a timeline of the patient's medical history. Reports like X-ray report, blood report etc will be attached to the specific point in history, which would make it easy to understand and access it, instead of having all attachments in either hard-copy or dumped in a single folder. Later in years to come, we can come-up with ideas to share/export data with other doctors, say for example the patient moves to city for better treatment.

Project: Disease Prediction via Machine Learning Algorithms

Brief explanation: Clinical data-warehouse that will store all information about the diseases occurred in a particular area, let say Bilaspur district of Chhattisgarh region where this system will be deployed. Understanding the pattern of disease, number of times a particular disease has occurred, reason why it occurred, preventive methods that doctors could implement in order to prevent the disease if it occurs next time. This will not only help in giving the best medical services in remote areas but also help administrators, doctors to be well prepared in advance to tackle the emergence of any kind of disease.

Project: CHW Project

Background: Many are community health workers are semi-literate, and request help with decision making. CHWs want knowledge in a particular format; many have an aversion to writen text and would succeed more with images and and audio. The platform must be appropriate.We are working with various technology platforms to provide a couchy feel of application for use by public health at Raxa

Objectives:

Develop a case management platform to allow for users to implement case management for common diseases in JSS

Implement MOTECH engine of connecting to openmrs for platform communication

Improve task management of community health workers

Added benefit: These are not core tasks, but will add a plus if implemeneted:

Implement Arden decision rules support for the mobile platform

Improving patient matching and record linkage strategies with the main JSS openmrs system.

Used Technologies: HTML5, Javascript, CSS CouchDb
