Build 5 openEHR Apps in 10 weeks Bootcamp

openEHR Applications You Will Build

Below are the applications you will be building in the course of the boot camp.

Pre-requisites:

1. Basic fundamental Javascript or should be able to learn along.
2. (Optional) Basic fundamental Java or should be able to learn along.

1. Simple Nursing Form

You will be given: An openEHR Server

Requirement: The Nursing Applications should be able to capture the patient's reason for coming to the hospital and vitals like blood pressure, pulse and SpO2.

• Create and upload a template that captures the data fields required in the openEHR server.
• Create a front-end that will capture the openEHR canonical JSON composition and save it in the openEHR server.
• Allow updates to the composition to be done, and save any updates as a new version of the composition.
• Allow entries to be deleted by the nurse if required. Confirmation before deleting should be provided.

This application is to be built in Javascript using a frontend framework of the candidate's choice.

2. Simple Patient Charting Dashboard

You will be given: An openEHR Server

Requirement: Chart the data from the data saved on by the nursing template. Chart the data under 2 modes - those created only by your application, and those created by all other candidate's applications using AQL.

• Compose 2 AQLs to retrieve the data - one for your own application's template, and another for retrieving data from all templates. Provide a dropdown or a switch to change the dashboard between these two modes.
• Construct a dashboard where the patient's vitals and the reason for the encounter are shown.
• Provide graphs for vitals like Blood Pressure, Pulse, and SpO2.

This application is to be built in Javascript using a frontend framework of the candidate's choice.

3. Doctor's Out Patient App

You will be given: An openEHR Server, An openEHR template, A Terminology Server

Requirement: A doctor's application is to be created that can capture the diagnosis and medications in coded terminology from a terminology server. You will use Medblocks UI to build the application. The application should fulfil the following criteria:

• All fields in the openEHR template should have appropriate data elements in the UI
• The Diagnosis and Medication fields should pull data from the terminology server and display the data to the end user.
• The application should populate the correct context fields, and submit a valid FLAT composition to EHRbase.

This application is to be built in Javascript using a frontend framework of the candidate's choice and should use Medblocks UI for openEHR data fields.

4. Doctor's Charting Dashboard

You will be given: An openEHR Server, An openEHR template, A Terminology Server

Requirement: Provide a dashboard for the doctor to visualise both the data created by the nurses, as well as the data points created by the doctor's app. Provide specific warnings for patients who have a diagnosis of respiratory tract-related infections.

• Construct a dashboard where the patient's vitals and the reason for the encounter are shown.
• Compose AQLs to retrieve the data from the doctor's application.
• Compose a special terminology server integrated AQL that can determine if the patient has a respiratory tract-related infection.
• Provide graphs for vitals like Blood Pressure, Pulse, and SpO2.

This application is to be built in Javascript using a frontend framework of the candidate's choice.

5. Backend Application for Remote Patient Monitoring

You will be given: An openEHR Server, A FHIR profile for Observation

Requirement: A backend is to be created for a remote patient monitoring app that will send data to your application in HL7 FHIR Observation format. The data is to be received and persisted in the openEHR Server.

• Create and post an openEHR template that maps to the requirement.
• Generate Java classes for the openEHR template thus created.
• Receive HL7 FHIR POST requests for Observation via HTTP POST.
• Convert and map the FHIR data into openEHR composition using the openEHR SDK.
• Persist the openEHR composition in the openEHR Server.

This application is to be built using Java and should use the openEHR Java SDK. This project is optional.
