Overview
Tamanu Desktop
At the hospital level, a desktop-enabled version allows a full suite of functionality, including scheduling, admissions, medication orders, lab and imaging requests, location (bed) management, discharges and patient management (including treatment notes etc). The desktop app works offline, syncing with a central server whenever an internet connection becomes available.
The platform is designed to interface with existing patient administration systems or Master Patient Indexes (assuming publicly available APIs) and allow full integration with laboratory and radiology IT systems where they are available.
Tamanu Mobile
At the clinic level, a mobile version offers a stripped-down functionality, capturing diagnoses, treatments, vitals and the recording of events such as births, vaccinations, ante-natal visits and deaths.
The app is available across all Android devices (Version 7.0+).
The data captured by Tamanu Mobile syncs to a central server and back down to any other facility. Patient data can be protected by customisable patient verification or via user permission settings.
An entire country can be built on a central server (physical or cloud-based) so that clinicians in any facility are able to call up patient records created on either mobile or desktop in near real-time and make changes in any setting. All data are captured on a patient’s record, regardless of whether they are undergoing major surgery at a referral hospital or attending for a basic check-up at their local health clinic.
Modules
