MedConsult Description
The medical field is one of the most important areas of human activity and in recent times the boom in related programs has helped save many lives. From complex programs that simulate the spreading of diseases to simple applications allowing doctors to keep in touch with their patients, medical personnel have had a wide range of digital tools to assist them in their work.
Record illnesses and past symptoms
MedConsult presents itself as a valuable tool for managing consultations and keeping track of patient symptoms. The application is highly intuitive and easy to understand, and new users will have no problem in adjusting to its GUI. The interface is efficiency-geared and, although one has multiple fields to complete, tabs keep the GUI from being cluttered.
Two things should be noted before one can start recording data: the application has to be run with administrator privileges, as otherwise a ‘missing file’ error will be displayed. The second important information is that, when running it for the first time, users must enter “Admin” in both the username and password fields. This can then be adjusted in the “Add or Remove Users” window.
Track the evolution of a patient’s health
Also, concerning the installation, it should be noted that the application comes in two versions: one for doctors and one for nurses. If medical nurses are allowed to make consultations, one should choose the latter installation version.
These things being said, the tool is a very comprehensive consultation registry. It keeps track of multiple patients, with each one’s information kept in a separate tab. From symptoms to past illnesses and treatments (if applicable), the utility records all the essential information. One notable feature is the predefined symptoms, illnesses or investigations, which allows users to select an item from a drop-down list, rather than manually inserting the text string.
The utility records all aspects related to the physical state of health of patients
To sum up, MedConsult is a great tool for doctors and similar professionals who require a simple, but effective patients and consultations recorder.
