Abstract

With the advancement in ICT, Health Care industry now-a-days is well equipped with Medical Equipments to provide the investigation & examination result accurately in time. The term "MEDICAL EQUIPMENT" can be interpreted as including a wide range of instruments, equipment, machinery or apparatus used for medical and para-medical purposes. Medical Equipments available in market are laboratory test specific. Their result format also varies from vendor to vendor i. e. no standard format of machine outcome. To view the result, Doctor/Technical needs to check the console of Medical Equipment. They need to manually enter the data into Hospital Information System to make investigation report a part of patient EMR, which is time consuming and chances of error are more. To overcome this one needs to interface these equipments with Hospital Information System as per data format and communication specification of medical equipments. There will be no plug and play in market which interfaces these equipments easily with Hospital information System or in case if HIS is not available in hospital then publishes these reports across Hospital. The Generic Medical Equipment Interface solution detailed in this paper is to interface the medical equipments and provide the result of all machines at central point. This solution removes the burden of reentry of patient details into the Electronic Medical Record.
