The MU Veterinary Medical Teaching Hospital replaced its outdated MUMPS-based Hospital Information System interface with a new web-based (HTML forms) interface. This upgrade allows parallel use and smooth migration, improving user acceptance and development efficiency.

Area of Science:

  • Veterinary Medicine
  • Health Informatics
  • Software Engineering

Background:

  • The MU Veterinary Medical Teaching Hospital utilized a legacy "home-grown" Hospital Information System (HIS) developed in MUMPS.
  • The existing system featured a "roll-and-scroll" user interface, characteristic of 1970s-1980s terminal-based systems.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To introduce a modern user interface for the HIS using World Wide Web technologies.
  • To enable access to the HIS via standard web browsers on the hospital's intranet.
  • To facilitate a seamless transition from the old interface to the new one.

Main Methods:

  • Developed a new user interface utilizing HTML forms and web browser technology.
  • Ensured the new interface could operate concurrently with the legacy interface.

Related Experiment Videos

  • Maintained the use of the existing underlying database for data consistency.

    • Main Results:

    • Computers on the hospital intranet can now access the HIS through any compatible web browser.
    • The new interface runs in parallel with the old one, allowing for a gradual migration.
    • User acceptance of the new interface has been positive.
    • Development of the new interface has proven to be efficient and promising.

    Conclusions:

    • The implementation of a web-based user interface for the HIS offers a significant modernization.
    • The parallel operation and shared database facilitate a smooth and less disruptive migration process.
    • The new interface enhances accessibility and user experience, with promising development outcomes.
