| description | On Merchant vessels, there is usually no physician on board. Health management there is a great challenge for the responsible nautical officers. To simplify health administration on board diverse electronic health modules including a medical logbook and pharmacy module were developed in cooperation with an IT company. These modules are integrated in an existing fleet management system. The medical logbook and pharmacy modules were designed to offer more functions than just classic documentation and allow quick access to patient information. The included functions can support the nautical officer in his healthcare duties on the vessel. |
