Patient Narratives Upload - Project Proposal
Google Summer of Code 2013 Project
Project at Google melange: https://google-melange.appspot.com/gsoc/project/google/gsoc2013/durapix/118001
1. Introduction (Motivation for the project)
Just think of a situation where a patient isn’t capable of attending clinic to get proper health-care treatment. But he/she might have the Internet facility at their homes or may be at their neighbourhoods. So in that case If the person could get medical advice through internet that would be really cool, isnt it ?
So that’s where the Patient Narratives Module’s idea comes from. The care-seeking patient can simply login to the publicly hosted OpenMRS system and Navigate to Patient Narratives interface and fill, upload the required information (simply they could just say their story) submit it! And wait for the confirmation from Care-providers who are generously waiting to provide health-care support for them.
