BACKGROUND Poor management efficiency in the Polish health system requires the use of patient information systems that have been in operation for several years. However, their heterogeneity and technological and functional diversity pose a challenge. Not only do systems of different companies differ from each other, but within the same solution, there are shortcomings or differences in functional modules across different units of the health sector. These are due to variations in demands related to the specifics of the unit. OBJECTIVE Therefore, the lack of appropriate tools for planning patient admissions in the present hospital information system, the current failure of paper management methods, and the lack of tools at the ready to create our own have forced the implementation of commercial solutions. METHODS An Admission of Patient Program based on the browser is available on devices connected only to the hospital network. The program used the online FullCalendar library and the MySQL database. RESULTS The system is based on the form of a calendar with the possibility of editing a patient's records planned for a given day of admission. It is intuitive and easy to use. It is a transparent program, thanks to the use of color styles in the records. CONCLUSIONS Conclusions. After 2 years, the system works efficiently and is a significant facilitator of the management of patient admission planning, which translates into the appropriate use of branch resources (number of staff and hospital beds) and optimization of operating room usage. |
