- FIG. 15 b in conjunction with FIG. 12, illustrates the process for transferring data from a cache 206 to a data archive 208 .
- the data manager 202 monitors the contents of the cache 206 .
- the data manager 202 requests transfer 260 of data to the data archive 208 under certain conditions.
- the data manager 202 may purge the cache 206 when data requested for storage in the cache would exceed its memory capacity.
- the data manager 202 first transfers to the data archive 208 signed files and then data files in chronological order, i.e., oldest files first.
- a healthcare provider can specify a predetermined time, such as 3 calendar days, or other selected conditions for transfer to the data archive 208 .
- the process ends as the data manager 202 ignores the request.
- the process ends and the data manager 202 queues the request for the next transfer of data to the data archive 208 .
- Data in the cache 206 is ready for transfer when a physician has reviewed and accepted it and when it has not been previously committed to the data archive 208 . Otherwise, the data manager 202 transfers data from the cache 206 to the data archive 208 at 266 .
- the data interface 204 of the patient data repository 102 includes an interface manager 270 , a data handler 272 and a communication interface 274 .
- the interface manager 270 communicates with a data handler 272 and a communication interface 274 .
- the communication interface 274 communicates with the data handler 272 for conversion of received external patient data into formats recognized by the EMR system.
- the interface manager 270 creates and maintains an interface registry of data formats for external sources. Prior to data transfer or receipt by the EMR system, the interface manager 270 registers an interface for an external source. Upon registration of an interface, the interface manager 270 can provide the appropriate conversion routines for the data handler 272 to use for transfer of data to and receipt of data from an external source. These conversions are well understood by the relevant technologist.
- FIGS. 17 a and 17 b illustrate the operation of the data interface 204 of the patient data repository 102 (FIG. 12).
- the data manager 202 issues a request 280 for patient data from an external source.
- the interface manager 270 determines if the registry includes an interface for the external source, such as a laboratory or pharmacy. As determined at 282 , if the registry includes an interface for the external source, the communication interface 274 connects to the external source 284 to receive patient data.
- the data handler 272 retrieves the appropriate conversion routine for the external source to convert data 286 . In a preferred embodiment, the data handler 272 converts data from an external source into a database table for the appropriate PID.
- the data manager 202 incorporates converted data 288 into the patient record. Otherwise, the interface manager 270 reports an error 289 .
- the data manager 202 may recover from the error 289 in several ways. First, the data manager 202 may invoke a module to register an interface for the external source so as to allow the process to continue. Second, the data manager 202 may end the process at this point. Lastly, the data manager 202 may restart the process in the event the external source was specified incorrectly.
- an external source requests data 290 from a patient record.
- the interface manager 270 determines at 292 if the registry includes an interface for the external source. As determined at 292 , if the registry includes an interface for the external source, the data manager 202 locates the requested data at 294 and the data handler 272 converts requested data at 296 to the format required by the external source. The communication interface 274 then sends the converted data to the external source at 298 . For example, the patient data repository 102 may transmit a physician's prescription for medication to a hospital or pharmacy. If the registry includes no interface for the external source, the interface manager 270 reports an error 299 . Similarly, as discussed above for the process flow of FIG. 17 a , the interface manager 270 may recover from the error 299 by restarting the process, ending the process or invoking a module to register the external source to allow the process to continue.

Description
- This application is a continuation of and incorporates by reference, U.S. patent application Ser. No. 09/628,390, filed August. 2000, which is a continuation of application Ser. No. 09/333,170, filed Jun. 14, 1999, now abandoned, which is a continuation of U.S. Pat. No. 5,924,074, filed Sep. 27, 1996, issued Jul. 13, 1999.
- 1. Field of the Invention
- The present invention relates to electronic healthcare systems, and more particularly, to a system for storage and retrieval of electronic medical records in a computer environment, such as a local or wide area network including portable computers.
- 2. Description of Related Technology
- Healthcare providers, such as physicians, create large volumes of patient information during the course of their business at healthcare facilities, such as hospitals, clinics, laboratories and medical offices. For example, when a patient visits a physician for the first time, the physician generally creates a patient file including the patient's medical history, current treatments, medications, insurance and other pertinent information. This file generally includes the results of patient visits, including laboratory test results, the physician's diagnosis, medications prescribed and treatments administered. During the course of the patient relationship, the physician supplements the file to update the patient's medical history. When the physician refers a patient for treatment, tests or consultation, the referred physician, hospital, clinic or laboratory typically creates and updates similar files for the patient. These files may also include the patient's billing, payment and scheduling records.
- Healthcare providers can use electronic data processing to automate the creation, use and maintenance of their patient records. For example, in U.S. Pat. No. 5,277,188, assigned to New England Medical Center Hospitals, Inc., Selker discloses a clinical information reporting system having an electronic database including electrocardiograph related patient data. Similarly, Schneiderman discloses a computer system for recording electrocardiograph and/or chest x-ray test results for a database of patients in U.S. Pat. No. 5,099,424. In U.S. Pat. No. 4,315,309, Coli discloses a patient report generating system for receiving, storing and reporting medical test data for a patient population. Mitchell, in U.S. Pat. No. 3,872,448, likewise discloses a system for automatically handling and processing hospital data, such as patient information and pathological test information using a central processing apparatus. In U.S. Pat. No. 5,065,315, Garcia discloses a computerized scheduling and reporting system for managing information pertinent to a patient's stay in the hospital. However, these electronic data processing systems can not handle patient data in the wide variety of data formats typically produced by healthcare providers, such as physicians, laboratories, clinics and hospitals.
- Physicians often use paper based forms and charts to document their observations and diagnosis. Laboratories also produce patient data in numerous forms, from x-ray and magnetic resonance images to blood test concentrations and electrocardiograph data. Clinics and hospitals may use a combination of paper based charts and electronic data for patient records. The same patient data may exist in remote patient files located at clinics, hospitals, laboratories and physicians' offices. Similarly, patient files at one healthcare provider typically have different information than patient files at another healthcare provider. When in use, patient files are generally not available to other healthcare providers. In addition, at the time of creation, patient data is generally not available for use by remotely located healthcare providers. Moreover, relationships among specific patient data, such as abnormal laboratory test results, prescribed medications to address the abnormality, and specific treatments administered by the physician, may not be apparent within a patient file.
- In the current environment, specific patient data is difficult to access when needed for analysis. The creation of patient data in remote locations exacerbates this problem. In addition, the wide variety of data formats for patient data hinders electronic processing and maintenance of patient files. Moreover, the use of a patient's file by one healthcare provider can preclude its simultaneous use by another healthcare provider. Ongoing consolidation of healthcare providers into large health maintenance organizations (HMOs) and preferred provider organizations (PPOs) create issues in the transfer and maintenance of patient data in large enterprises having numerous remote locations. Under these circumstances, healthcare providers have difficulty providing effective treatment for their patients.
- The electronic medical record (EMR) system of the present invention automates and simplifies existing methods of patient chart creation, maintenance and retrieval. In contrast to other systems, the present invention creates and maintains all patient data electronically and thus can eliminate or supplement creating and maintaining of physical data records. The EMR system furnishes healthcare providers with an intuitive, easy-to-use, icon-based interface that enables them to capture and analyze patient data quickly and efficiently. Using the present invention, healthcare providers enter patient data immediately at the point of care. Thus, the EMR system captures each piece of data at its source at the time of entry to provide a complete audit trail for all patient data. In this manner, the EMR system transforms a patient chart from a static record of a few clinical interactions into a dynamic, real-time comprehensive record linked to an enterprise-wide clinical database. In addition, the EMR system of the present invention includes the capability to manage a wide variety of patient data formats, including patient data from external sources, such as laboratories and pharmacies. The EMR system can also incorporate a patient's legacy data, such as a paper chart, into the patient record as well as legacy data from mainframe computers.
- The present invention likewise provides instant access to a patient's electronic medical record by authorized healthcare providers from any geographical location. Thus, the EMR system enables authorized healthcare providers to access and update patient files using wireless pen-based personal computers. To enable complete replacement of physical records, the present invention permits healthcare providers, such as physicians or nurse practitioners, to electronically annotate patient data. Thus, a healthcare provider can acknowledge reviewing patient data, provide instructions, such as prescriptions for medication to administer to a patient, and approve recommendations for treatment by other providers, all by electronically annotating a patient's record. In addition, authorized healthcare providers can access a record while other providers use the same record allowing for real-time collaboration. The availability of electronic data permits instant, sophisticated analysis of patient data. Moreover, the EMR system enables enhanced analysis of patient data by providing access to reference databases for diagnosis, procedures and medication.

The first section provides an overview of the EMR system architecture, the following section describes EMR system applications and preferred embodiments for practicing the EMR system of the present invention, and the remaining section summarizes advantageous features of the present invention.
- I. EMR System Architecture and Overview
- FIG. 1 illustrates the architecture of the EMR system. Healthcare providers, such as physicians, at hospitals, laboratories and clinics, generally capture and access patient data using a point of
care system 100 that communicates with apatient data repository 102. Patient data, such as vital signs, x-ray images and laboratory results, resides in thepatient data repository 102. Thepatient data repository 102 also communicates with external sources to obtain patient data, such as laboratory test results and x-ray images, and to transfer patient information, such as prescriptions for medication, from the EMR system to other healthcare providers. The point ofcare system 100 captures patient data in real-time at the point of care, that is, where healthcare providers interact with their patients. For example, physicians can use a point ofcare system 100 to enter, access, process, analyze and annotate data from patient records in real-time at the point of care. Thus, using the point ofcare system 100, a physician, who has many patients in a hospital, can visit each patient in their room, access their electronic patient record there, enter results of the current examination, evaluate their medical history, electronically annotate their x-rays images and prescribe medications and treatments instantaneously as the point ofcare system 100 captures and organizes patient data into the patient record stored in thepatient data repository 102. The point ofcare system 100 may likewise communicate with areference database 104 to assist a healthcare provider in making diagnoses, prescribing medications and administering treatments. Moreover, thepatient data repository 102 may also communicate with alegacy data system 106 to access pertinent patient data in paper files and mainframe electronic databases. - Referring now to FIG. 2, a flowchart illustrates the operation of the EMR system. For example, a patient having a complaint contacts a
healthcare provider 110, such as a physician, to schedule an appointment. The EMR system obtains thepatient record 111 from the patient data repository 102 (FIG. 1) prior to the scheduled appointment. The EMR system is also capable of handling patients on a walk-in basis by scheduling an appointment and requesting the patient's record immediately thereafter. The EMR system updates thepatient record 112 to include the complaint and other information pertinent to the appointment, such as insurance information. A healthcare provider, such as a physician, examines thepatient 113 using the point of care system 100 (FIG. 1) to make a diagnosis and to treat the patient's condition. As determined at 114, if a diagnosis is not possible on the basis of this examination, the physician may need to obtain additionalclinical data 115, such as laboratory tests and x-rays. When available, the physician uses the point of care system 100 (FIG. 1) to evaluate theresults 116 and to examine thepatient 113 again in light of the results. Upon making a diagnosis, the physician may need to prescribemedications 117 for the patient's condition. Similarly, the physician may need to administer atreatment 118 to address the patient's condition. At the conclusion of the patient's visit, the EMR system files the patient'srecord 119 in the patient data repository 102 (FIG. 1) for future reference. - In a preferred embodiment, the EMR system includes graphical user interfaces to access system functions. For example, as shown in FIG. 3, a
chart puller window 120 enables a healthcare provider to schedule a patient appointment using its point and click interface. To schedule an appointment, a healthcare provider activates theselect button 121 with a pointing device, such as a mouse or electronic pen, to obtain a list of patients. The healthcare provider then scans the list to select the name of the appropriate patient using a pointing device. The EMR system places the name of the selected patient in thepatient box 123. Similarly, the healthcare provider uses the up/downbuttons 125 to select an appointment date and an appointment time. An adjacent box, such as thedate box 126, displays the selected date and time. Lastly, the healthcare provider enters a textual description of the patient's complaint in areason box 127. Note that the healthcare provider can review prior or future scheduled appointments by clicking on theappointments button 128. Similarly, the healthcare provider can track referrals by entering the identity of persons who referred this patient to their care in thereferral box 129. - Referring now to FIG. 4, a block diagram illustrates the structure of the point of
care system 100. The point ofcare system 100 includes the following modules: apatient data capture 140, aclinical data capture 142, progress notes 144 and anencounter data capture 146. During a patient visit, the healthcare provider (not shown) can enter, review and annotate patient information, such as family history, appointments, current medications and complaints, using thepatient data capture 140. The healthcare provider can likewise enter, review and annotate clinical data obtained during the visit, such as body temperature and blood pressure, using theclinical data capture 142. Similarly, the healthcare provider can enter laboratory data for patients with theclinical data capture 142. Theclinical data capture 142 communicates with thepatient data capture 140 to assist in identifying needs for further clinical data. For example, a family history of high blood pressure may indicate a need to obtain the patient's blood pressure during the visit. Thepatient data capture 140 also communicates with theencounter data capture 146, where a healthcare provider can enter, review and annotate data regarding diagnoses and procedures administered to the patient. Moreover, the healthcare provider can use the progress notes 144 to summarize details of the patient's condition and to review the patient's progress over time. Thus, the progress notes 144 communicates with thepatient data capture 140, theclinical data capture 142 and theencounter data capture 146. - Referring now to FIG. 5, in a preferred embodiment, the point of care system100 (FIG. 1) includes a graphical user interface having a
patient chart window 150 to capture patient information. The point ofcare system 100 presents a patient record graphically using a tabbed layout to organize patient data. Thepatient chart window 150 includes tabs forpatient data 151,clinical data 152,encounter data 153 and progress notes 154. Pointing and clicking on a tab on thepatient chart window 150 opens afolder window 155 where a healthcare provider can enter and review patient data within the folder. For example, to activate progress notes 144 (FIG. 4), the healthcare provider selects the progress notestab 154 to display a list of progress note data in thefolder window 155. In a similar manner, to activate thepatient data capture 140, theclinical data capture 142 or theencounter data capture 146, one selects thepatient data tab 151, theclinical data tab 142, or theencounter data tab 153, respectively. - To enter patient data, the healthcare provider clicks on the scroll down
button 156 to select a form from a list of available forms to enter patient data. This activates thenew forms box 157. The provider then points and clicks on thenew form button 158. For example, FIG. 6 shows anew form window 161 displaying thepediatric problem form 162 selected by the healthcare provider using the scroll down button 156 (FIG. 5). The healthcare provider fills out thepediatric problem form 162 using an input device, such as a keyboard, a mouse or an electronic pen. For example, the provider uses a keyboard to enter text “6/7/96 Stomach Ache” 164 and an electronic pen to enterinitials 166 for identification. When done with patient data entry, the provider exits the form using theFile Menu 168 and the point ofcare system 100 returns the provider to the patient chart window 150 (FIG. 5). Referring back to FIG. 5, the new form appears as the top entry of the list in thefolder window 155. - Similarly, to annotate patient data, the healthcare provider first selects an item to annotate by pointing and clicking on the item in a list displayed in the
folder window 155. The provider then clicks on theannotate button 159 to open the item in anannotate window 170, as shown in FIG. 7. For example, theannotate window 170 of FIG. 7 displays ablood test result 172. As before, the healthcare provider annotates the bloodtest result document 172 using an input device, such as a keyboard, a mouse or an electronic pen. For example, the provider uses a keyboard to enter text “Out of Range” 174 and an electronic pen tocircle 176 the out of range result. When done with annotations, the provider exits the form using theFile Menu 178 and the point ofcare system 100 returns the provider to the patient chart window 150 (FIG. 5). Note that the point ofcare system 100 tracks the review of patient data and identifies reviewed files with amark 160 in thefolder window 155. By annotating patient data, a healthcare provider, such as a physician, can acknowledge reviewing patient data, provide instructions, such as directions for additional tests and procedures or prescriptions for medication to administer to the patient, and approve recommendations for treatment by other healthcare providers. Lastly, as shown in FIG. 8, a healthcare provider uses thepatient chart window 180 to view patient data. First, the healthcare provider selects aview item 182 by either pointing and clicking twice on the item in a list displayed in thefolder window 184 or by pointing at the item in the list and pressing theview button 183. The double click opens aviewer window 185 to display theview item 182. For example, theviewer window 185 of FIG. 8 displays anx-ray 186. As before, the healthcare provider may annotate thex-ray 186 with comments and observations by clicking on theannotate button 187. The healthcare provider may likewise close theviewer window 185 by clicking on theclose button 189. - Certain additional structures in the point of care system100 (FIG. 1) will now be discussed with reference to FIGS. 9, 10 and 11. Referring now to FIG. 9, an optional
medication data capture 148 supplements the structure of the point ofcare system 100 of FIG. 4. Amedication data capture 148 allows a healthcare provider to monitor a patient's medications. Themedication data capture 148 communicates with thepatient data capture 140 to account for medications the patient is currently taking. Themedication data capture 148 similarly communicates with the progress notes 144, where a practitioner can monitor changes in a patient's condition resulting from medication therapies. Referring now to FIG. 10, anoptional practice guideline 149 supplements the structure of the point of care system of FIG. 4. Thepractice guideline 149 provides references for practitioners to consult regarding courses of action to obtain a diagnosis and alternative treatments for various conditions. Thepractice guideline 149 communicates with thepatient data capture 140, theclinical data capture 142 and theencounter data capture 146 to assist the practitioner in selecting the appropriate course of action. Thepractice guideline 149 likewise communicates with the progress notes 144 to provide a healthcare provider with a historical context of the patient's condition and alternative treatments already attempted. - FIG. 11 shows a point of
care system 100 having amedication data capture 148 and apractice guideline 149. As before, themedication data capture 148 communicates with thepatient data capture 140 and with theprogress note 144. Similarly, thepractice guideline 149 communicates withpatient data capture 140, theclinical data capture 142, theencounter data capture 146 and theprogress note 144. However, thepractice guideline 149 may now communicate with themedication data capture 148 to address situations where accepted practice guidelines require a healthcare provider to prescribe and administer medications. In a preferred embodiment, the point ofcare system 100 includes the graphical user interface illustrated in FIG. 5. Referring back to FIG. 5, thepatient chart window 150 includes tabs formedication data 191 andpractice guidelines 193 that activate themedication data capture 148 and thepractice guideline 149, respectively. Similarly, pressing themedication manager button 192 activates themedication data capture 148 and thepractice guideline 149. A healthcare provider can enter, review and annotate patient medication data and practice guideline data as described previously. - Referring now to FIG. 12, a block diagram illustrates the structure of the
patient data repository 102. Thepatient data repository 102 includes apatient locator 200, adata manager 202 and adata interface 204. Thepatient locator 200 generates a unique patient identifier (PID) 221 (FIG. 14) for each patient and creates and maintains a table having PIDs for all patients who have data in thepatient data repository 102. All data records related to apatient - With reference to FIG. 13, upon creation of a patient record, the
patient locator 200 creates apatient data structure 210 having the PID and the patient's name. In a preferred embodiment, thepatient data structure 210 includes pointers to data structures having data within a patient record captured by the point ofcare system 100 and incorporated from external sources (e.g., a digital x-ray image file stored in a raster pixel format). Thus, thepatient data structure 210 maintains a pointer to an interface filesstructure 211 having patient data transmitted from external sources. Thepatient data structure 210 likewise maintains pointers to aclinical data structure 212, aprogress note structure 213 and anencounter data structure 214. These data structures include patient data captured by theclinical data capture 142, progress notes 144 andencounter data capture 146, respectively (FIG. 4). In another preferred embodiment, thepatient data structure 210 may include pointers to data structures having data generated by thereference database 104 and transferred by thelegacy data system 106. Thus, thepatient data structure 210 may maintain pointers to amedication data structure 215 and aguideline data structure 216. As described above, themedication 215 andguideline 216 data structures include patient data captured by themedication data capture 148 and thepractice guideline 149, respectively. In this embodiment, areference data structure 217 may maintain pointers to theencounter data structure 214 and to themedication data structure 215 for access to reference information contained in areference database 104. Lastly, thepatient data structure 210 may maintain a pointer to a legacy filesstructure 219 having patient data transmitted from thelegacy data system 106, such as an image of a patient chart. - FIG. 14 shows a logical view of a
patient record 220 corresponding to the structure illustrated in FIG. 13. Thepatient record 220 includes the PID generated by the patient locator 200 (FIG. 12) in the patient data repository 102 (FIG. 1). In addition, thepatient record 220 includes patient data in a variety of data types generated by healthcare providers. Thus, the patient record includestext data 223, such as electronic mail and word processing documents from other healthcare providers,image data 225, such as scanned physical documents, x-rays and CATSCANs, andaudio data 227, such as a physician's dictation and voice mail. Lastly, thepatient record 220 has data tables 229, such as a physician's ICD9 diagnosis codes and CPT procedure codes. In view of the structure of apatient record 220, referring back to FIG. 12, thedata manager 202 uses the PID to store and retrieve patient records. Moreover, the data interface 204 permits communication with external sources to obtain patient data, such as demographic data, laboratory test results and x-ray images, and to transfer patient information, such as prescriptions for medication, from thepatient data repository 102 to external healthcare providers. - With reference to FIG. 12, the
patient data repository 102 may optionally include acache 206 for temporary storage of patient data and adata archive 208 for long term storage of patient data. In this embodiment, thedata manager 202 coordinates the transfer of patient data to and from adata archive 208 into acache 206. For example, thedata manager 202 may identify patient records that a healthcare provider needs for appointments scheduled at a future time and then transfer these patient records from the data archive 208 into thecache 206 for quick access prior to the scheduled appointment. Similarly, thedata manager 202 may purge from thecache 206 records of patients who have not had recent appointments and whose records are already archived. Thedata manager 202 likewise tracks the location and description of patient data within the data archive 208 by associating the file name of the patient data within apatient record 220 with thepatient identifier 221. When possible, thedata manager 202 will group data associated with a patient within the data archive 208 for rapid retrieval in a manner similar to files within a directory in an operating system. Thus, thedata manager 202 assigns a directory to each patient identifier and then stores patient data within this directory. - FIG. 15a illustrates the process flow for the patient data repository 102FIG. 1). For example, the point of care system 100 (FIG. 1) issues a request for
patient data 250. With reference to FIGS. 15a and 12, thepatient locator 200 receives the request from the point ofcare system 100 and, at 251 attempts to find the PID for the record having the requested patient data. As determined at 252, if no PID is found, thepatient locator 200 reports anerror 253. At this point, the patient data repository 102 (FIG. 1) may recover from theerror 253 by either restarting the process or by ending the process. Otherwise, thepatient locator 200 communicates the PID to thedata manager 202. Thedata manager 202 locates the patient record using the PID at 254. As determined at 255, in a system withoutcache 206 and without adata archive 208, thedata manager 202 delivers the requesteddata 256 to the point ofcare system 100. In a system having acache 206 and adata archive 208, thedata manager 202 determines at 257 if the requested data exists in thecache 206. If so, thedata manager 202 delivers the requesteddata 256 to the requester from thecache 206. Otherwise, thedata manager 202 first moves thedata 258 from the data archive 208 to thecache 206 and then delivers the requesteddata 254 to the requester from thecache 206. - In addition, FIG. 15b, in conjunction with FIG. 12, illustrates the process for transferring data from a
cache 206 to adata archive 208. Thedata manager 202 monitors the contents of thecache 206. To improve the performance of thecache 206, thedata manager 202 requests transfer 260 of data to the data archive 208 under certain conditions. For example, thedata manager 202 may purge thecache 206 when data requested for storage in the cache would exceed its memory capacity. In this circumstance, thedata manager 202 first transfers to the data archive 208 signed files and then data files in chronological order, i.e., oldest files first. Similarly, a healthcare provider can specify a predetermined time, such as 3 calendar days, or other selected conditions for transfer to the data archive 208. As determined at 262, if thecache 206 does not have the data to transfer, the process ends as thedata manager 202 ignores the request. As determined at 264, if the data in thecache 206 is not ready for transfer, the process ends and thedata manager 202 queues the request for the next transfer of data to the data archive 208. Data in thecache 206 is ready for transfer when a physician has reviewed and accepted it and when it has not been previously committed to the data archive 208. Otherwise, thedata manager 202 transfers data from thecache 206 to the data archive 208 at 266. - Referring now to FIG. 16, the data interface204 of the
patient data repository 102 includes aninterface manager 270, adata handler 272 and acommunication interface 274. To transfer and receive patient data from external sources (not shown), theinterface manager 270 communicates with adata handler 272 and acommunication interface 274. In addition, thecommunication interface 274 communicates with thedata handler 272 for conversion of received external patient data into formats recognized by the EMR system. Theinterface manager 270 creates and maintains an interface registry of data formats for external sources. Prior to data transfer or receipt by the EMR system, theinterface manager 270 registers an interface for an external source. Upon registration of an interface, theinterface manager 270 can provide the appropriate conversion routines for thedata handler 272 to use for transfer of data to and receipt of data from an external source. These conversions are well understood by the relevant technologist. - FIGS. 17a and 17 b illustrate the operation of the data interface 204 of the patient data repository 102 (FIG. 12). Referring now to FIG. 17a, the
data manager 202 issues arequest 280 for patient data from an external source. At 282, theinterface manager 270 determines if the registry includes an interface for the external source, such as a laboratory or pharmacy. As determined at 282, if the registry includes an interface for the external source, thecommunication interface 274 connects to theexternal source 284 to receive patient data. Thedata handler 272 retrieves the appropriate conversion routine for the external source to convertdata 286. In a preferred embodiment, thedata handler 272 converts data from an external source into a database table for the appropriate PID. Lastly, thedata manager 202 incorporates converteddata 288 into the patient record. Otherwise, theinterface manager 270 reports anerror 289. Thedata manager 202 may recover from theerror 289 in several ways. First, thedata manager 202 may invoke a module to register an interface for the external source so as to allow the process to continue. Second, thedata manager 202 may end the process at this point. Lastly, thedata manager 202 may restart the process in the event the external source was specified incorrectly. - Referring now to FIG. 17b, an external source requests
data 290 from a patient record. As described above, theinterface manager 270 determines at 292 if the registry includes an interface for the external source. As determined at 292, if the registry includes an interface for the external source, thedata manager 202 locates the requested data at 294 and thedata handler 272 converts requested data at 296 to the format required by the external source. Thecommunication interface 274 then sends the converted data to the external source at 298. For example, thepatient data repository 102 may transmit a physician's prescription for medication to a hospital or pharmacy. If the registry includes no interface for the external source, theinterface manager 270 reports anerror 299. Similarly, as discussed above for the process flow of FIG. 17a, theinterface manager 270 may recover from theerror 299 by restarting the process, ending the process or invoking a module to register the external source to allow the process to continue. - Referring now to FIG. 18, a block diagram illustrates the structure of the optional reference database104 (FIG. 1). The
reference database 104 includes adiagnosis module 300, amedication manager 302 and aprocedure module 304. A healthcare provider can use thereference database 104 for assistance in diagnosing a patient's disease, prescribing medications and ordering supplemental procedures to treat the disease. Thediagnosis module 300 communicates with amedication manager 302 to obtain information on medications indicated by a diagnosis. Themedication manager 302 provides information on medications, such as proper dosages, allergies, contraindications, adverse interactions with other medications, and side effects. Thediagnosis module 300 likewise communicates with aprocedure module 304 to obtain information on the proper administration of procedures indicated by a diagnosis. Theprocedure module 304 provides information on procedures for treatment as indicated by the diagnosis. In many instances, themedication manager 302 communicates with theprocedure module 304 regarding the administration of various medications. - In a preferred embodiment, the point of
care system 100 provides access to thereference database 104 through a graphical user interface having apatient chart window 310 shown in FIG. 19. A healthcare provider accesses thediagnosis module 300 and theprocedure module 304 by pointing and clicking on areference access button 312. - As shown in FIG. 20, the
reference access button 312 produces areference window 330 including the graphical interfaces for thediagnosis module 300 and theprocedure module 304. For example, to enter a diagnosis, a physician clicks on the scroll downbutton 331 adjacent to thesystem box 332 to produce a list of body systems. The physician selects the appropriate system and thediagnosis module 300 enters the selected system in thesystem box 332 and provides a list having specific diagnosis codes for the selected body system in thediagnosis box 334. The physician then selects the appropriate diagnosis code and clicks on theadd button 336 adjacent to thediagnosis selection box 337. Thediagnosis module 300 enters the selected diagnosis code to thediagnosis selection box 337. The physician may repeat the above steps to add multiple diagnosis codes to thediagnosis selection box 337. In a similar manner, a physician uses the scroll downbutton 331 adjacent to thetopic box 333 to select the appropriate procedure topic. Theprocedure module 304 enters the selected procedure topic in thetopic box 333 and provides a list of procedure codes in theprocedure box 335. The physician now selects the appropriate procedure code and adds it to theprocedure selection box 338 by clicking on theadd button 336 adjacent to theprocedure selection box 338. The physician may likewise repeat the above steps to add multiple procedure codes to theprocedure selection box 338. The physician completes entry of diagnoses and procedures by clicking on the donebutton 339 to return to thepatient chart window 310 of FIG. 19. - The healthcare provider similarly accesses the medication manager302 (FIG. 18) by clicking on a medication button 192 (FIG. 19). Referring now to FIG. 21, the medication button 314 activates a
medication manager window 350. The physician can review the patient's history by viewing themedication history box 351 and thediagnosis history box 352 before prescribing any new medications. The physician can also review any patient allergies in theallergy box 353. The physician can select a medication by entering the name of the medication in thename box 354. Note that as the physician enters the root letters of a medication name, a list of medications with the root letters appears in themedication list box 355. As before, the physician selects a medication from the list by clicking on it and themedication manager 302 places the selected medication in aselection box 356. If there are no contraindications or allergies for the patient, the physician prescribes the medications listed in theselection box 356 by clicking on the prescribebutton 357. - Otherwise, if a contraindication exists, a warning appears in a
warning bar 358 to alert the physician. In view of the warning, the physician can investigate the effects of the medication by clicking on theresults button 359. Referring now to FIG. 22, the results button produces amedication interaction window 361. Amedication selection box 362 displays the medications selected and under consideration by the physician. Anallergy list box 363 displays the patient's allergens.Folder tabs 364 include labels describing the medication combinations and interactions. The physician clicks on one of thesefolder tabs 364 to display the contents of the folder in theviewing box 365. The physician can then evaluate the information on the interaction including potential adverse patient reactions. The physician clicks on the donebutton 366 to return to themedication manager window 350 of FIG. 21. The physician can make any needed revisions to the medications selected in the manner described above. Afterwards, the physician exits themedication manager 302 by clicking on theexit button 360. - Referring now to FIG. 23, a block diagram illustrates the structure of the optional
legacy data system 106 as shown in FIG. 1. Thelegacy data system 106 includes adata source 370 and aconverter 372. Thedata source 370 comprisesphysical data 374, such as paper based records and photographs, andelectronic mainframe data 376. Theconverter 372 receives information from thedata source 370 and transforms the information into an electronic format compatible with the EMR system. For example, to inputphysical data 374, such as paper or image based data, into a patient record, theconverter 372 comprises a scanner to digitize the physical data into a binary file format for incorporation into the patient's record. To inputelectronic mainframe data 376, theconverter 372 employs the same mechanism used for transfer or receipt of patient data from external sources. As described before, theconverter 372 determines if an interface exists for the mainframe data, selects the appropriate data handler and converts the data into the proper format for incorporation into a patient record. - II. EMR System Configurations
- FIG. 24 illustrates one possible configuration for the EMR system of the present invention. The system comprises a wide area network (WAN)402, the World Wide Web (Web) 404 portion of the Internet, and

Similarly, the scanner 424 comprises a Fujitsu M3093EX scanner using Kofax KIPP ImageControls software and thelaser printer 422 comprises a Hewlett Packard LaserJet 4Plus. Healthcare providers may access theLAN 400 using adesktop computer 416, alaptop computer 418 orwireless pen computer 420. In a preferred embodiment, thedesktop computer 416 comprises a Compaq Deskpro 5/75 Model 630, thelaptop computer 418 comprises a IBM ThinkPad 760CD and thepen computer 420 comprises a Fujitsu Stylist 1000 configured with a Solectek AirLAN PCMCIA network adapter for wireless LAN access. The EMR system also provides for communication through the World Wide Web. For example, remote healthcare providers may access theWAN 402 on the Web using the domain name “www.westcst.com” 436. Thus, a healthcare provider located in Boston, Mass. may access a patient record resident on theScripps Health server 414, located in San Diego, Calif., using aweb browser 412, such as Microsoft Explorer or Netscape Navigator, communicating with a Web server in Boston, Mass. having the domain name “www.boston.com” 406. - In a preferred embodiment,
servers desktop 416, orlaptop 418 computers and peripherals, such asprinters 422 or scanners 424, communicate with each other and with the Web using a network operating system, such as Microsoft Windows NT, Windows 95 or Windows for Workgroups. Similarly,pen computers 420 use the Microsoft Windows for Pen Computing operating system. In another preferred embodiment, the servers, computers and peripherals communicate using an operating system supporting Web browsers on computer networks, such as Unix, Novell Netware or Apple System 7.0. In yet another preferred embodiment, the EMR system includes servers, computers and peripherals networked using mixed network operating systems, such as Unix, Netware and Windows. For example, theLAN 400 may operate on a Windows NT network operating system, whereas theLAN 430 may operate on an Apple System 7.0 network, and the Web server “www.boston.com” 406 may operate on a Unix operating system. Thus, the EMR system supports communication among a variety of hardware components, such asprinters 422, scanners 424 andpen computers 420, using a variety of network operating systems, such as Windows, Netware or Unix. In a preferred embodiment, healthcare providers, such as clinics and laboratories, may also communicate with the EMR system using modem links and standard v.34 modem devices, such as a US Robotics Sportster 28,800 modem. - The EMR system includes several databases of electronic information, such as the
medication manager 302 and thedata manager 202. In a preferred embodiment, the EMR system implements a relational database language that conforms to American National Standards Institute (ANSI) standard SQL-92, a 580 page specification for the SQL relational database language. A database language standard specifies the semantics of various components of database management systems (DBMS). In particular, it defines the structures and operations of a data model implemented by the DBMS, as well as other components that support data definition, data access, security, programming language interface and data administration. The SQL-92 standard specifies data definition, data manipulation, and other associated facilities of a DBMS that supports the relational data model. SQL is old in the art and additional information on SQL-92 is available in ANSI specification X3.135-1992, hereby incorporated by reference. - Similarly, in another preferred embodiment, relational databases in the EMR system support the Open Database Connectivity (ODBC) model. ODBC is an application program interface (API) that allows client applications running under Microsoft Windows to access data from a variety of data sources, including relational and non-relational DBMS. These data sources may reside on a client machine or they may be located on a remote server communicating through a network common to the client machine. Under ODBC, data sources may vary in complexity from shrink-wrap databases, such as Microsoft Access, running under Windows on a client machine to more sophisticated, proprietary relational DBMS running on a Unix server or mainframe computer. For a client application to access data from a data source, a dynamic link library (DLL) driver must exist for each data source to be accessed. For additional information on ODBC is available fromInside ODBC, by Karl Geiger, hereby incorporated by reference.
- III. Summary
- The electronic medical record system of the present invention advantageously overcomes several limitations of existing technologies and alternatives. Because it is more efficient and cost effective to move data, instead of physical records and healthcare providers, the present invention eliminates the need to create and maintain any physical data records. In contrast to other systems, the present invention creates and maintains all patient data electronically. Thus, there is no need to find, pull, move, update, file and replace physical charts. As a result, healthcare providers no longer require substantial shelving and storage space for physical files. The present invention likewise eliminates the mishandling, loss and destruction of patient data typically associated with maintenance of physical data records.
- Using the present invention, healthcare providers enter patient data immediately at the point of care. Thus, the EMR system captures each piece of data at its source at the time of entry, including time and healthcare provider identification. The EMR system thus provides a complete audit trail for all patient data. The audit trail, in turn, permits inexpensive analysis of outcomes, utilization and compliance. For example, outcomes typically refer to the effectiveness of a treatment plan. Thus, the EMR system enables a healthcare provider to analyze patient recovery times and incurred costs to measure the efficacy of the treatment plan. Similarly, utilization typically refers to how well available resources are utilizing time. Thus, the EMR system provides the capability to analyze utilization of physicians, nurses, staff and equipment as well as time utilization for patients, such as wait times for referrals, lab results and physician examinations. Lastly, compliance typically refers to conformance with government and accreditation standards and regulations. The EMR system provides tools to enable healthcare providers to measure conformance to standards and regulations. To facilitate entry of patient data at the point of care, the invention provides touch screens for entry of lab orders, medications, diagnoses and procedures. The invention likewise provides instant access to a patient's electronic medical record by authorized healthcare providers from any geographical location. Thus, the EMR system enables authorized healthcare providers to access and update patient files using wireless pen-based personal computers. In addition, authorized healthcare providers can access a record while other healthcare providers use the same record. By providing simultaneous access to patient data, the present invention enables real-time collaboration among multiple healthcare providers.
- The availability of electronic data permits instant, sophisticated analysis of a patient's clinical data. Thus, the EMR system can create graphs of a patient's vital signs and lab results or the system can provide an analyze patient information to identify medication interactions and allergies. Using the present invention, a healthcare provider can likewise select, sort, and analyze patient data to identify relationships among the data considered. In addition, the EMR system provides flexibility in the creation and maintenance of patient data repositories. Thus, the present invention can support a large healthcare enterprise distributed across a large geography as well as a single physician office. Moreover, the present invention ensures patient confidentiality through the use of a tiered password system. The EMR system provides several levels of security for access to patient data. For example, a system administrator may have global password access to any patient data for system maintenance and debug purposes, whereas physicians may have access only to patient records within their specialty and nurses and staff may have access to only those patient records within their immediate care. In addition, a patient may request restricted access to their data by only certain personnel. Thus, in contrast to physical records, the EMR system provides superior protection of patient data.
- In addition, the present invention is useful in legal, manufacturing and general administration environments. For example, the present invention is capable of organizing, maintaining and protecting legal files in an attorney's office. Thus, the EMR system can store and retrieve scanned images of paper documents, such as deeds and assignments, as well as other native file formats, such as word processing files. The EMR system organizes and retrieves this data in a manner akin to that of a patient's medical record. Upon entry of a client data into the EMR system, attorneys can annotate documents, transfer information to and from other systems, or create new data for automatic filing in the client or case file. Similarly, the EMR system is useful for management of procurement or regulatory data in a manufacturing context. Thus, the EMR system can organize and maintain material safety data sheets (MSDS) as well as other data pertinent to materials procurement, such as conformance to specification measurements and inspection data for received lots, in a manufacturing environment. Lastly, the EMR system is useful for general administrative files in any organization. For example, the present invention is applicable to employee files in human resources, customer files in sales and approved suppliers in procurement. The EMR system can organize and retrieve data within these files in the manner as patient data in a patient data record. As discussed above, upon entry of a data into the EMR system, users can annotate documents, transfer information to and from other systems, or create new data for automatic filing in the respective file.
- Those skilled in the art may practice the principles of the present invention in other specific forms without departing from its spirit or essential characteristics. Accordingly, the disclosed embodiments of the invention are merely illustrative and do not serve to limit the scope of the invention set forth in the following claims.
