(Electronic Medical Record) : Team Size

The document discusses the need for electronic medical records (EMR) to replace handwritten paper records. Handwritten records can be difficult to read and lead to medical errors. EMRs allow medical records to be stored digitally in multiple locations simultaneously, avoiding data loss. They also enable doctors to more easily access patient medical history and increase their efficiency. The requirements for an EMR system include a minimum of an Intel Pentium 4 processor, 128MB RAM, 50MB hard disk space, mouse, keyboard, monitor, Windows XP operating system, and the .NET Framework 2.0 and MS Office 2007.

PROBLEM DEFINITION

In clinical records many items are handwritten and difficult


to read. Handwritten paper medical records can be associated
with poor legibility, which can contribute to medical errors.
Through poor handwriting, much information in medical records
is inaccessible to auditors, to researchers, and to other
clinicians involved in the patient's care. If clinicians cannot be
persuaded to write legibly, the solution must be an accelerated
switch to computer-based systems.
NEED FOR COMPUTERIZATION

An Electronic Medical Record is the digitized form of


medical records that are kept in clinic. These records can be
stored at multiple places at the same time and it helps to avoid
the data loss. Medical history of any patient can be retrieved at
any time with the help of electronic medical records because
these records would be stored inside a computer.
The manual record keeping has become obsolete, as it
requires manual effort and a lot many files have to procured
and preserved to keep the data in place. Electronic media has
made it possible for doctors to increase their efficiency and
save their time by simply analyzing the medical history of a
patient at the computer.
Electronic medical records tend to be a part of a local
stand-alone health information system that allows storage,
retrieval and modification of records.
