SerpentCS is now in a patnership with Thymbra, GNU Health

Serpent Consulting Services feels immense pleasure to say that we have been in partnership with Thymbra and supporting GNU Health.

GNU Health is based on Tryton and is a free Health and Hospital Information System with the following functionality :

• Electronic Medical Record (EMR)
• Hospital Information System (HIS)
• Health Information System

GNU Health is developed by Thymbra since 2008. Thymbra is an IT company specialised in ERP and medical informatics, active in Europe and Americas with offices in Spain and Argentina.

GNU Health is an official GNU Package, and the Hospital Information System adopted by the United Nations University,
International Institute for Global Health, for the implementations and trainings.

“Working with the medical community
around the world to improve the quality of life
of people living in emerging economies.” http://health.gnu.org

In 2008 Thymbra created a division dedicated to GNU Health. We count with the support of medical specialists that put their experience in the design and implementation of our solutions

GNU Health – The Free Health and Hospital Information System.
GNU Health is a multi-user, highly scalable, centralized Electronic Medical Record (EMR) and Hospital Information System (HIS) for Tryton. Provide an universal Electronic Medical Record (EMR) and Hospital Information System (HIS), so doctors and institutions all over the world, independently of their economic status, will benefit from a centralized, high quality, secure and scalable system.

Our goal is to provide a free, universal EMR / HIS, where developing countries can also benefit.

GNU Health at Glance

The data model is designed in such a way that centralizes the information, so no duplication occurs.
On the other hand, GNU Health optimizes collaboration and communication between health professionals. For example, a doctor may request an specific lab test for a patient, this is processed by the pathologist which diagnoses it and inputs the result on the system. The doctor now has all the analysis information linked to the patient chart.
GNU Health allows to attach documents (X-rays, Biopsy results, … ) to the Patient chart.

Standards

The information generated and gathered in GNU Health should be standard. We use ICD-10 for pathologies / diseases diagnoses. For example, instead of typing an arbitrary name for the condition, the doctor will be able to choose from over 14000 mutually exclusive classified diseases. This is very important for epidemiological and other statistical studies.
GNU Health uses the information on genetics from the National Center for Biotechnology Information NCBI and Genecards to link genes disorders to diseases. This information is important to evaluate risks of the patient to contract an specific disease and the probability of transmitting it to next generations. GNU Health also registers all the relevant family history information of the patient.
Similarly, the patient history will be in a format that medical centers all over the world would be able to process. Effective, paperless and fast way of practising medicine.

Security

It follows the access control and security model of Tryton.

Localization

The main language will be English, but it can be easily translated to any other language using Tryton module translation. We are using Transifex as the translation Portal Today, GNU Health is being translated into Hindi India, Italian, German, Spanish, Bahasa Indonesian, Vietnamese, French, Dutch and Portuguese, among others.
