[Gnumed-devel] Re: Next EMR steps... (ref exporter, wishing tasks)

Hi Carlos,

Sounds good but see below.

>    2. Past history/notes viewer:
Note the word "viewer" :-)  I think for 0.1 we can satisfy
ourselves with having a simple browser (what Carlos is
proposing here) and a simple (well ;-) SOAP input widget.

For the tree I would offer the following suggestion:

tree              wxHTML? or text as exporter does text now
---------------------------------------
issue           | RFE:
  episode       | S  : ...
    encounter   |      (codes)
    encounter   | O  : ...
    encounter   |      (codes)
  episode       | A  : ...
    encounter   |      diagnosis (codes)
  episode       |      diagnosis (codes)
    encounter   | P  : ...
    encounter   |      (codes)
  ...           | AOE: ...
issue           |      (codes)
  episode       | Lab: ...
  ...           | Vaccs/Allergies: ...
-----------------------------------------

Note that RFE/AOE are at the same logical level as SOAP.

>          *: Constraint controls could be left for post 0.1,
Yes. They would auto-expand all the matching encounters and
display their data on the right in consecutive sections like
the above one.

It could be used to add/delete/move/rename issues, episodes
and encounters. I would not facilitate editing of SOAP rows in this
widget. Eg. the left side is editable but the right side is
read-only. It might be useful to allow for jumping to the SOAP
editor by double-clicking an encounter (or right-click popup).

IMO it would be a much better "clinical narrative browser"
than the raw EMR text dump we have now. For the tree controls
you may want to take a look at config registry browser or
medical document browser. There is a version of the tree
control that supports right-hand side additional data.
