EMR4DW Chair Dr Peter Smith visited Manafwa clinic in Uganda this week and found the new clinic already using EMR4DW very well. This is a clinic which receives referrals of patients suspected of malnutrition. The photo shows the new traffic light system RED alert on the mid upper arm circumference. This measurement confirms malnutrition. Reception staff are able to triage such patients to see the Dr.
EMR4DW will also help in monitoring these babies as it lists all measurements in chronological order at the bottom of the page, so the Dr. or nurse can see if the baby is improving.
Look out for more blofs from Dr Peter when he returns later this week.
