Overview

Many different investments have gone into hospital information systems worldwide. When those systems are evaluated, most of them do not meet clinicians’ needs. To address the shortcomings EuroMISE Centre has developed an electronic health record (EHR) application MUDRLite, which can be customized to needs of a particular health care provider. To address the shortcomings especially in dental medicine we have brought together a unique cross-disciplinary collaborative group of computer scientists, statisticians, software developers, and clinicians, from the Department of Medical Informatics, Institute of Computer Science, Academy of Sciences of the Czech Republic and the Department of Prosthodontics of the Charles University in Prague, 1st Medical Faculty, to collaborate on research and development with the prevailing goal of providing consistency in electronic recording, archiving, analyzing and disseminating of dental medicine data.

A highly-advanced MUDRLite component implementing the interactive dental cross represents one of the results of the joined effort. The data model of this component originates in a technology called “Dental Medicine Data Structuring Technology Using a Dental Cross”. This technology was enrolled as a patent application form under the No. PV 2005-229.

Using the dental cross component a dentist can choose among about 60 different actions, treatment procedures or dental parameters that are displayed lucidly on the screen. The components support typical clinical workflows including treatment of primary and secondary caries, fillings, pulp pathology etc. It combines a treatment plan with an interactive calendar that enables to schedule patients’ visits and treatments.

The interactive dental cross analysis was prepared in a form of a case report. Information record in a graphic structure accelerates dentist’s decision-making and it enables a more complex view while suggesting a treatment plan.

Key words:
dentistry – dental cross – electronic health record
