MAX - Medical Arts eXperience
For a lay person in the field of medicine, literally, everything is not clear, from the doctor's handwriting (I wonder if there is such a special subject of ununderstandable writing in medical universities?) to diagnoses. Even the simplest disease seems to be the size of the universe if it is called by its Latin name.
Fortunately, medicine has begun to actively use technologies that make life easier for both patients and doctors. You do not need to rush during working hours to pick up the test results, they are sent to your email, and to give a demonstration of the disease various applications are used.
We developed one such application.
MAX - Medical Arts eXperience , an innovative software solution that bridges the gap between medical practitioners and their patients. This application empowers doctors to visually communicate medical conditions and treatment strategies to their patients with exceptional clarity.
Users can effortlessly upload photos and videos directly to the application. This multimedia content becomes a canvas for doctors to employ their expertise by adding annotations, drawings, and explanations. By harnessing these visual tools, doctors vividly illustrate the intricacies of the medical issue at hand and provide insights into potential treatments.
Additionally, MAX goes beyond visual representation by facilitating comprehensive information management. Users can seamlessly attach relevant documents, creating a centralized hub for all patient-related data. This feature not only streamlines the organization of vital information but also ensures that all aspects of a patient's case are readily accessible in one location.
In essence, MAX fosters a more engaged and informed patient experience. By leveraging multimedia and interactive annotations, doctors can demystify medical complexities and empower patients to actively participate in their healthcare journey. This transformative application transcends traditional medical interactions, ushering in a new era of patient-centered care.
- Patient data is confidential
One of the key strengths of MAX is its focus on privacy and confidentiality. Patient data is handled with the utmost care, ensuring compliance with data protection regulations and maintaining the doctor-patient confidentiality that is crucial in healthcare. Each doctor is assigned their own virtual office within the application, providing a secure space for patient information, medical records, and diagnostic materials. This personalized workspace streamlines communication and collaboration between doctors and patients while maintaining the necessary boundaries.
- All information and documentation is systematic
The systematic organization of information and documentation is another hallmark of MAX. In the fast-paced world of healthcare, having access to relevant patient data quickly and efficiently can greatly impact diagnosis and treatment outcomes. MAX centralizes all patient-related information, from medical history to test results, creating a comprehensive repository that supports doctors in making accurate decisions. This organized approach reduces the risk of information silos and ensures that the medical team remains well-informed at all times.
- It includes web-based tools for easy content management in hospital wards
The web-based tools integrated into MAX offer hospital wards an efficient way to manage content. Medical professionals can update patient records, attach important documents, and access resources seamlessly from any device with internet connectivity. This web-based functionality enhances collaboration among healthcare teams, making it easier to share insights, treatment plans, and progress updates, ultimately leading to better patient care and outcomes.
MAX represents a significant leap towards patient-centric healthcare. By improving doctor-patient communication, facilitating information sharing, and promoting collaborative decision-making, MAX empowers patients to take an active role in managing their health. This not only enhances patient satisfaction but also contributes to better treatment adherence and improved overall wellness.
The main task for us was to create a custom drawing tool that would be accurate and easy to use. Our team analyzed the needs of doctors and their ways of working to make an application that can be easily used every day.
The web content management tool was also changed: Drupal was replaced by Angular framework for front-end applications and Java / Spring Boot for the backend server. All multimedia content and medical examination data were moved to centralized cloud storage.
The work on the project lasted approximately three months, and five people were involved, including front-end, IOS, and Java developers. The platform needed to be upgraded to the existing technology stack globally. It included an IOS tablet application written on Flex. The obvious solution was to rewrite the application using Swift and native components, making it more understandable to users today. Realm is used in the role of a mobile database, as it includes a free data encryption layer.
