Abstract
AbstractDeveloping an anesthesia module in the operating room is one of the significant steps toward the implementation of electronic medical records (EMR) in health care centers. This study aimed to develop and evaluate the web based-anesthesia module of an electronic medical record Sciences, in the operating room of the Namazi Medical Training Center of Shiraz University of Medical Iran. This developmental and applied study was conducted in steps including determining the functional and non-functional requirements, designing and implementing the anesthesia module, and usability evaluation. 3 anesthesiologists, 3 anesthesiologist assistants, and 12 anesthetist nurses were included in the study as a research community. React.js, Node.js programming language to program this module, Mongo dB database, and Windows server for data management and USE standard questionnaire were used. In the anesthesia module, software quality features were determined as functional requirements and non-functional requirements included 286 data elements in 25 categories (demographic information, surgery information, laboratory results, patient graphs, consults, consent letter, physical examinations, medication history, family disease records, social record, past medical history, type of anesthesia, anesthesia induction method, airway management, monitoring, anesthesia chart, blood and fluids, blood gases, tourniquets and warmers, accessories, positions, neuromuscular reversal, transfer the patient from the operating room, complications of anesthesia and, seal/ signature). Also, after implementing the anesthesia module, results of the usability evaluation showed that 69.1% of the users agreed with the use of this module in the operating room and considered it user-friendly.
