Abstract
Through engineering projects, we have integrated software engineering, geographical information systems and HL7 standard to propose a model of an eHealth management platform for Down’s syndrome screening, replicable in all the country. It will use real time sample information acquired from the local population and will geographically reference this information in the territory of Panama for future research.
Highlights
In many countries like Panama, a lot of medical information is not saved electronically
The eHealth Management Platform PLAGETRI21 is based on the calculation risk method of Likelihood, published by Palomaki and Haddow [25] combining the a priori risk for maternal age obtained from the meta-analysis Cuckle HS, Wald NJ and Thompson [26], with the likelihood obtained from combining the Multiple of medians (MoM) of the different markers used in each profile
We look for first improve the results from the currents diagnostics method used in Panama, working with a real sampling with data from patients in the country and second improve the procedures to realize first trimester screening test
Summary
In many countries like Panama, a lot of medical information is not saved electronically. It brings deficiency to the health system of the country affecting different areas of health care. It makes necessary the use of eHealth management platforms. For this reason, we want to focus our work in one of the illness that is affected by the lack of information which is the Down’s syndrome called trisomy 21. (2014) eHealth Management Platform for Screening and Prediction of Down’s Syndrome in the Republic of Panama. Vargas-Lombardo platform for the antenatal screening for Down’s syndrome in the republic of Panama. Section three explains the technologies that are going to be used to develop the eHealth management platform.
