Medical Software - Medical Software Internationally

Medical Software Internationally

Internationally, medical software consists of the following areas:

  • (I) Integrated Medical Software: Integrated Medical Software is often unavailable but companies continue to manufacture and sell this type of medical software for imaging and other medical devices. An example is the Santesoft company that sells products on its website.
  • (II) Surgery Management Programs: The second segment is simple and Programs Management Clinic patient records. There is no single way to design these programs, and - unfortunately - when once the user have a problem, looking for the company that designed it, he discovers that no longer exists. Examples: The project concerns the management ORTHO orthopedic Surgery. The program "CardioData" to administer cardiac Surgery, etc.
  • (III) Application Software Specifically: The third sector is usually On Line web programs, Software Specifically Application. The American Society for Medical Software Unbound Medicine offers free via its website, a series of useful medical programs for the use of doctors and nurses as the Nursing Central, the Family Drug Guide, the Nurse's Clinical Pocket Guide, etc. Many of these work and new mobile phone i-phone. In the "other" camp, the Russian software company SoftwareGeek also order from Medical Software for various purposes.
  • (IV) Computer Differential Diagnosis (Computer Aided Diagnosis): O The fourth area is the network On Line Software Differential Diagnosis. Existing diagnostic systems Computer Aided (CAD, Computer Aid Diagnosis) divided into two basic categories, as to how building (development): (a) Probability Systems (Propability Systems): These models are probabilistic type and not of particular interest . (B) Knowledge Base Systems (Knowlesge Based Systems): These are applications of AI (Artificial Intelligence) and known as Expert Systems (Expert Systems).One such free software on the internet, is the American DiagnosisPro website. A similar program is also designed by Microsoft for practicing telemedicine in remote and poor regions.
  • (V) Medical Software Telemedicine: Telemedicine is the use of combining IT and communication technology. We define a new, unimaginable a few decades ago, a possibility that the death of distance and reset the time on information exchange and assistance among physicians and patients. This option defines new levels in all areas that constitute the functioning of the Medical Sciences: Education, access to knowledge, research, clinical practice, control of medical instruments, assistance in inaccessible areas, prevention and generally minimizes the limitations of space and time in exercise.

Education and medical practice over days, new prospects are enormous as are the following possibilities:

  • 1) Exchange of educational medical programs in real time
  • 2) Access to doctors in all medical libraries of the world
  • 3) Medical Teleconferences, On Line Medical Conferences, On Line examining the patient, and transfer the dossier to the Medical e-mail.
  • 4) telemedicine (e.g., heart patients with a portable device that sends Elektroardiogram with mobile phone in a special center)
  • 5) General control and monitoring of populations living in remote areas (islands, inaccessible areas). The offer medical care in places that are not available for immediate access to medical resources such as Seagoing ships, climbing plants or excluded areas, etc. A typical example being the control center of climbers to Everest which is connected with the University of YALE and tasked to monitor at any time the climbers climbing out over the 7,000 meters and equipped with sensors that continuously record the cardiopulmonary function and identify resistance limits the climbers.

It is certain that the technology at the Medical Software and Medical Devices running fast. The average doctor, let alone the average citizen, unable to keep pace. But the years that medical knowledge and access to high quality medical services, was the prerogative of few, gone for good. Whether this development will bring improvement of health of the population of the earth, that is another question that requires much thought for a response.
