Summary
This study details a custom medical documentation software developed by the University of Frankfurt am Main
Area of Science:
- Medical Informatics
- Healthcare Software Development
Context:
- Multiple specialized software programs create physician burden and data redundancy.
- High costs associated with integrating disparate medical software systems.
Purpose:
- To develop a unified, user-centric software solution for medical documentation.
- To address the specific needs of gynecology and obstetrics departments.
Summary:
- A custom Windows NT-based program was created for inpatient and outpatient services since 1995.
- The software focuses on user requirements, not just technical capabilities.
- It integrates general documentation, perinatal inquiries, and gynecological quality control (QSmed).
Impact:
- Streamlines medical documentation processes in gynecology and obstetrics.
- Reduces the need for physicians to learn multiple software programs.
- Facilitates data management and quality assurance within the department.
