Abstract

The present invention provides in one form, a clinical workflow management system comprising a web based user interface comprising a single page application for displaying at least one clinical workflow; at least one application programming interface comprising a REST compliant set of stateless operations, where the at least one application programming interface operates between the web based user interface and at least one data store; and, a scalable data storage base comprising the at least one data store; wherein the web based user interface is operatively associated with the scalable data storage base through a set of bounded contexts where each bounded context is associated with one of the application programming interfaces and one data store

Claims (13)

1 . A clinical workflow management system comprising: a web based user interface comprising a single page application for displaying at least one clinical workflow; at least one application programming interface comprising a REST compliant set of stateless operations, where the at least one application programming interface operates between the web based user interface and at least one data store; and, a scalable data storage base comprising the at least one data store; wherein the web based user interface is operatively associated with the scalable data storage base through a set of bounded contexts where each bounded context is associated with one of the application programming interfaces and one data store.
2. A method of operating a clinical workflow management system comprising one or a combination of the following steps: associating each of a plurality of interconnected API functions and/or methods and a corresponding one of a plurality of data stores with a separate one of a plurality of bounded contexts; sending system requests in order of importance and loading return data in order of their arrival; storing the minimum necessary data for each context in its associated data store; storing a copy of data for peripheral actions in a queue to be processed asynchronously such that peripheral actions are performed separate to initiating and higher priority actions.
3. A method of displaying a unified contextual navigation in a clinical workflow management system comprising the steps of: selectively presenting a plurality of display panels comprising items grouped by context.
4. A method as claimed in claim 3 wherein the display panels are selectively displayed in the form of a flex accordion where opening a panel displaces adjacent panels.
5. A method of checking patient information against an external provider in a clinical workflow management system in which each of a plurality of interconnected API functions and/or methods and a corresponding one of a plurality of data stores is associated with a separate one of a plurality of bounded contexts, the method comprising the steps of: raising a request from a client application API upon opening a patient record through a client application user interface for checking patient information against an external provider database; placing the request in a queue for further processing by a client application service acting as an interface between a client application API and a service provided by the external provider; the client application service checking for a cached request that corresponds to the raised request; returning a copy of a response matching the cached request from the client application service and stopping further processing of the raised request; the client application service continuing processing of the raised request if there is no cached request by forwarding the request to the external provider; the client application service forwarding any received response from the external provider to the client application to process including updating the patient details and/or notifying a user of the clinical workflow management system of the patient information.
6. A method of searching a patient's medical history in a clinical workflow management system in which each of a plurality of interconnected API functions and/or methods and a corresponding one of a plurality of data stores is associated with a separate one of a plurality of bounded contexts, the method comprising the steps of: creating at least one artefact comprising clinical or other data created in the course of providing medical services to a patient; storing the at least one artefact in at least one of the plurality of data stores; indexing the at least one artefact by parsing its content, splitting content into tokens, processing tokens, and creating an index of each of the tokenised data; entering a search query comprising search terms; tokenising each entered search query term; and, scoring stored indexes against the tokenised search query terms.
7. A method managing data in a clinical workflow management system in which each of a plurality of interconnected API functions and/or methods and a corresponding one of a plurality of data stores is associated with a separate one of a plurality of bounded contexts, the method comprising the steps of: recording an action taking place during a medical consultation as tokenised data; creating at least one artefact corresponding to the recorded action and to be used as a proxy for the recorded action.
8. A method of managing data in a clinical workflow management system in which each of a plurality of interconnected API functions and/or methods and a corresponding one of a plurality of data stores is associated with a separate one of a plurality of bounded contexts, the method comprising the steps of: creating at least one artefact comprising clinical or other data created in the course of providing medical services to a patient; storing the at least one artefact in at least one of the plurality of data stores; indexing the at least one artefact by parsing its content, splitting content into tokens, processing tokens, and creating an index of each of the tokenised data.
9. A method of synchronising communication between clients in a clinical workflow management system in which each of a plurality of interconnected API functions and/or methods and a corresponding one of a plurality of data stores is associated with a separate one of a plurality of bounded contexts, the method comprising the steps of: assigning categories to selected database tables in the plurality of data stores, the categories comprising one or a combination of user, center or patient; sending a message to at least one application client in the event one of the tables is modified, the message comprising the type of message and an identification; making an API call for retrieving all information if a relevant identification is received by an application client and in response; the application client updates a user interface to match information on a server of the clinical workflow management system.
10. Apparatus adapted to operate a clinical workflow management system, said apparatus including: processor means adapted to operate in accordance with a predetermined instruction set, said apparatus, in conjunction with said instruction set, being adapted to perform the method as claimed in any one of claims 2 to 9.
1 1 . A computer program product including: a computer usable medium having computer readable program code and computer readable system code embodied on said medium for operating a clinical workflow management system within a data processing system, said computer program product including: computer readable code within said computer usable medium for performing the method as claimed in any one of claims 2 to 9.
12. A method, process or protocol as herein disclosed.
13. An apparatus, system and / or device as herein disclosed.
