Visual monitoring of patient progress
Chemo / Immunotherapy Management
OncoEHR integrates a powerful and extremely user friendly Chemotherapy / Immunotherapy management subsystem (CIMS). CIMS follows an holistic approach in deisigning, scheduling, applying and monitoring chemotherapy / immunotherapy schemas on a patient through summary and analytic (daily) views and controls. The doctor can select a pre-existing schema, modify one or define one from scratch. Calculation of dosage is automated based on patient characteristics such as weight and body surface. Specific reports can be designed to monitor required medications on a patient / clinic basis for daily, weekly or monthly monitoring. Similar reports may be produced to assist in scheduling of patient treatment at clinic level
