description | Introduction: Sickle cell disease (SCD) is prevalent in central
India including Chhattisgarh. Screening for SCD is being carried
out by Government of Chhattisgarh. Electronic Medical Record
(EMR) system was developed and implemented in two phases.
Aim: Aim was to use informatics techniques and indigenously
develop EMR system to improve the care of SCD patients in
Chhattisgarh. EMR systems had to be developed to store and
manage: i) huge data generated through state wide screening for
SCD; ii) clinical data for SCD patients attending the outpatient
department (OPD) of institute.
Materials and Methods: ‘State Wide Screening Data Interface’
(SWSDI) was designed and implemented for storing and managing
data generated through screening program. Further, ‘Sickle Cell
Patients Temporal Data Management System’ (SCPTDMS) was
developed and implemented for storing, managing and analysing
sickle cell disease patients’ data at OPD. Both systems were
developed using VB.Net and MS SQL Server 2012.
Results: Till April 2015, SWSDI has data of 1294558 persons, out
of which 121819 and 4087 persons are carriers and patients of
sickle cell disease respectively. Similarly till June 2015, SCPTDMS
has data of 3760 persons, of which 923 are sickle cell disease
patients (SS) and 1355 are sickle cell carriers (AS).
Conclusion: Both systems are proving to be useful in efficient
storage, management and analysis of data for clinical and research
purposes. The systems are an example of beneficial usage of
medical informatics solutions for managing large data at community
level. |
