MedSummary – to view clinical information of a single patient

MedSummary synthesizes the information entered into the registration protocols and automatically generates a summary where selected information is displayed as a readable text, with digitized images of the mucosal lesions shown simultaneously. The character of the generated summary is in its layout in most ways similar to the regular patient record we encounter in daily practice.

MedSummary operates in two steps. The first step is to identify the patient in the database, which is done by the nine-digit code. When the patient is selected, the date(s) for the patient’s visits are displayed. In the second step, the operator selects the visit(s) to be shown and the summary is displayed. The images in the bar at the bottom can be enlarged to a full-screen mode.

The summary is technically a combination of a preexisting text framework and registered input data, where the input data are directly inserted or translated into the proper spaces of the summary framework, generating a readable text. As for MedRecords, the summary application is flexible and the MedSummary Creator allows alterations in the text frame_work if required, since input data are unaffected. Thus, the operator can select the data to be displayed in MedSummary. The summary can be printed out or included in a template if paper copies are necessary in the clinic. Also, it must be strongly emphasized that the language of MedSummary can be chosen by the user. Since the text framework of MedSummary can be created by the user, it can therefore also be written in any language and layout suited to the requirements by the clinic or users of the system.
