Analysis, Design and Implementation of an Online Medical Care System Chapter 1 Overview of the Project 1.1 Introduction Internet is an extremely resourceful technology for any organization like hospital of all categories to use to provide several type of information to the patient or users and meet the various health related needs of individuals, in particular, by integrating services. At present, almost everything is starting to be ‘online’ and give the people a chance to do a number of necessary tasks via the Internet and thus save a lot of time. Online Medical Care service is one of those, which has become the demand of the present time and almost all the hospitals are adopting this service to cope up with the present market situation and to be a part of the competition of providing maximum user satisfaction. Also all data are permanently stored in the database and information can be handled efficiently.

I have chosen to implement the Online Medical care System as my project. At this moment hospitals feel the need to have common structure of the software for convenience of their operation, providing information about hospital using internet and the software companies are working on this purpose. As a student my objective is to learn about the operation of the hospital and the features of the software which is needed for their operation. I want to learn how to develop database software specially using MySQL. My purpose is to develop a software for online medical care to gain experience so that I can work in database field in my future professional life. So that I have decided to develop the software Online Medical Care System as my project.

I am a student of Computer Science and Information Technology and my purpose is to develop a software product for the real use of the hospital. From this project I want to gain knowledge about the functional modules of a hospital and their inter relationship. More over, I want to develop database software that is based on MySQL. The purpose of my project is to develop a software product that will automated all databases of a hospital and user can get information through internet.

1.2 The Objective of this Project Information is the driving force of the current world. It is impossible to think the proper operation of today’s life without current information. So, maintaining proper information securely and make them available from everywhere become a part of our life. The objective of this project is to develop a web interface for a hospital that will provide its users the essential online medical services. The software, which I develop, is efficient in preserving all information and manipulates them efficiently.

I selected the following features to include in my project.

1) In my project all the information will be taken through forms, which are designed in user friendly way.

2) I will provide certain level of security through passwords, so no unauthorized persons can access the information.

3) User can get information about doctors available on particular day, necessary service information like blood, ambulance and so on.

4) The software provides the functionality to provide an appointment to doctor according to one’s need.

5) It also gives the opportunity to make a reservation for services.

6) My software will take time and date from computer automatically. As a result it decreases the redundancy of the data and save time and speed up the system.

7) User name and password of each user will be stored in database automatically.

Which they can use farther incase of modifying database or canceling appointment.

8) In case of entering any invalid date users will given warning.

9) I shall also manage patient’s total bill for the services which they make use .

10) Users can find out the charge for a particular service also.

11) All the graphical interfaces are easy to handle.

To gain a clearer picture of the typical Internet services available at medicals online medical care services is defined. The web site of the medical will have information about the hospital and it’s services and the procedures of being a registered person to access the registered page to make the use of online medical care services.

Chapter 2 Study of Existing System 2.1 Introduction I proposed to implement the Online Medical Care system as my project. As my project is Online Medical Care, I survey on RIC Hospital, Lalmatia, Dhaka. It is a genuine multi-system hospital housed in 7- strayed scientifically planed building. The complex is a multi-hospital system as it is divided into different specialized areas of treatment.

2.2 Present System At present the hospital maintains softwares that are offline software. The software cannot be accessed through internet. These softwares can only be accessed from the different section of the hospital using LAN connection. Patients are not able to get information or reservation using internet.

Patient or their guardians have to go to the hospital for booking or appointment. They have to pay a minimum for any service and receive a receipt from the hospital. Before the patient’s release or get the report patients have to pay the total amount of money.

2.2.1 Patient services A general hospital has two types of services Out Patient department and In Patient Department.

2.2.2 Outpatient Services The main hospital starts from the ground floor of the building. Advice and general consultation of all diseases both for male and female as well as children.

2.2.3 In Patient Services Advance in patient services are made available to afford treatment for a wide range of medical and surgical problems.

• • • • • • • • • • • • • • •

Internal medicine Cardiology Gastrology Dermatology Stroke and Neurology Burn and Plastic, Cosmic Surgery Urology Oncology Stock Diabetics Nero Surgery Orthopedic Surgery General and Laparoscopic Surgery ENT

Medicine and Diabetic Service Unit They provide also many important services except that. These are Admission/Discharge, Nursing services, CT Scan, Echo Cardiogram, Doppler, Health Checkup Packages. Blood transfusion and other medical support services.

2.2.4 Surgical Site The Hospital Surgical site comprises of most modern and highly equipped eight Operation Theaters. These Theaters suffice for all kind of surgery including Laparoscopic and Cosmic Surgery o TURP o TURBT o Proctoscopy o Cystoscopy o Sigmoidoscopy o Ureteroscopy 2.2.5 Neonatal Care Unit The unit is equipped with incubators including Open Care Unit, Phototherapy Unit, inhalators, emergency medicine, continuous oxygen flow system and Pulse-Oxymeter. Trained medical and nursing staff attends the patients round the clock Even portable Phototherapy units are also available. 24 hours Emergency Neonatal management services.

2.2.6 Diagnostic Facilities In this section, various diagnostic facilities of the hospital are presented into a number of sections.

2.2.7 Laboratory Advance Laboratory services providing diagnostic facilities in clinical pathology, hematology, biochemistry, immunology and microbiology.

2.2.8 X-Ray Most advanced X-Ray machines are available here. Like; • Digital X-Ray • Mobile X-Ray. 2.2.9 ECG and Ultra sonogram Highly trained personnel are engaged in the unit, supported by advanced ECG machines. A well equipped ultra sonogram Unit available for all kind of ultra sonogram.

2.2.10 Donor The hospital reserved bloods of different type and they provide to patients when necessary. They also keep information about different donor.

2.2.11 Emergency Medical Center In this section, various services provided by the hospital are described.

2.2.12 24-Hour Services A highly equipped Emergency Medical Center works round the clock.

2.2.13 Ambulance Services Modern and luxurious Ambulances are kept ready round the clock for speedy transportation.

2.2.14 Clinical Dietary Services The department provides all the important services of planning therapeutic diets, counseling regarding special and therapeutic diets, nutrient-drug interaction and consultation with physicians on nutritional problems.

2.2.15 Cabin Services The hospital has several types of cabin. Such as cabin for cancer patient, cabin for VIP patient, cabin for general or dengue patient.

2.3 Procedure to Maintain Information: In which way the management manages the patients all type information is describe step by step in below.

2.3.1 Procedure to handle Patient coming to the Doctor The patient who are not admitted, firstly they come to the front desk, the desk manager gives him/her a ‘Patient Information‘ form. The patient or guardian fill-up the form and submit it to the desk manager. The management handle this information like patient Id, patient name, age, gender, date of birth, present address, permanent address, contact.

2.3.2 Procedure to handle Doctor Information After fill-up the form the patient come to the doctor for check up. The doctor can give him/her some medicine or different types of tests. But they store all the doctor information like doctor id, doctor name, contact gender, salary, duty hour, e-mail, field of specialization, joining date, post id, fees, discount etc.

2.3.4 Procedure to maintain Cabin Information In a hospital there are different types of cabin for the patient like VIP, general, cancer, stroke and so on. The management keeps the information, cabin id, cabin name, status and charge.

2.3.5 Procedure to maintain Testing Information There are different types of hospital. In this hospital they store all the date about testing manually suppose testing id, name, price, amount, total price.

2.4 Limitations of Existing System After analyzing the existing system, I found some limitations. These are:

1)

There is no online system. If someone wants to know any information about the hospital, then it becomes hard for him/her to get information from online.

2) The patients have to come to the hospital, when they want to admit themselves. They are not getting the facilities of booking from there home using internet.

3) They are unable to know about the doctors who are present on a particular day or time without going to the hospital.

4) Patients have to present themselves or their guardian for appointment.

2.5 Conclusion In this chapter, I reflect my study on an existing medical care system. Here I focus on various procedures to carry out the day-to-day operation of a hospital. From my study, we identify several shortcomings of off line system. Depending on this study I am going to develop online medical care software to provide several service and information to the user. In my system I am trying to overcome the shortcomings. In the next chapter I am going to present my proposed system.

Chapter 3 Online Medical Care 3.1 What is online medical care?

The software ‘Online Medical Care’ is used to provide information about a hospital and the facilities like appointment to doctor or booking for services that are available in a particular hospital over the Internet through a hospital’s secure website. This allows users to get several conveniences outside of hospital and from anywhere where Internet access is available instantly. In most cases a web browser such as Internet Explorer or Mozilla Firefox is utilized and any normal Internet connection is suitable. No special software or hardware is usually needed.

It uses today's computer technology to give us the option of performing our goal more quickly and efficiently instead of traditional medical care system.

3.2 Origin of Online Medical Care The advent of the Internet and the popularity of personal computers presented both an opportunity for online medical care.

For some years, hospitals are using computers in order to automate their everyday jobs, today, often people have to go the hospital or make a telephone call to acquire information. Now that individuals are connected to the Internet via personal computers, so medicals can make such information

available to general people and give the opportunity of appointment or reservation of services and familiarize those from their home.

Hospitals view online medical care as a powerful implement to helping people to eliminate timeconsuming paper handling, interactions with the doctors and mitigate our necessities.

3.3 Features Online Medical Care usually offers such features as: • Appointment to doctor.

• Reservation for services.

• Booking a particular type of cabin.

• Find out donor for blood, kidney or eye etc.

• Someone can be a donor of the hospital.

• Consult with doctor’s • E-mail to doctors for advice.

If hospitals offer online medical care, general people will get the facilities from their home which is time saving and cost reducing. Similarly it can serve people more effectively.

3.4 Advantages of Online Medical Care Accessible from Anywhere: People can access Online Medical Care sites somewhere if internet is available.

• Faster: Online medical sites generally perform services quicker than traditional medical care services.

• Convenience: Online Medical Care sites never close; they're available 24 hours a day, seven days a week and they're only a mouse click away.

• Efficiency: One can access and manage all of his/her tasks from one secure site.

• Effectiveness: Several users can use the same site at the same time.

3.5 Disadvantages of Online Medical Care •

• • •

In case of, occurring any problem on machine the service may remain closed.

If the server crashed then people will be unable to use the website.

In this software, we can permit user to have advance booking or appointment but we cannot provide directly payment online for particular service .

Chapter 4 Proposed Online Medical Care System 4.1 The Proposed Online Medical Care System The online medical care system is specially meant for patients for the most effective use of getting information about doctor or services provided by a hospital. With the help of this software, we computerize different kinds of activities related to the hospital that a patient needs through online.

This includes the complete infrastructure of the hospital activity, to do the work competently and efficiently.

The online medical care system that this project proposes is mainly to eliminate the need to maintain a large number of information and getting information in a very time consuming way. This proposed project is to develop and implement a web-site through which the patients or users can get information about a particular doctor that is when a doctor is available in the hospital, doctor’s detail, can appointment to a doctor or booking for several different services. It will speed up the operation of a hospital and it responses to the increasing demand of today’s people. This project is a demo, so it does not show the online medical care system in a vast way, but tries to implement more satisfactory services to the people.

4.1.1 The Proposed System’s Structure

The web site has a general view, which is shown to the public and a registered view registered/administrator, which is shown to the administrator. The administrators are given specific user name and password through which they can log into the web site, only they have the access permission to edit, delete or modify the database. The general users will insert their user name and they will be given a password. They only can get information about doctor/hospital, appointment to a doctor or booking for services. General user can only modify their personal information or cancel appointment. The menu of the web site will have the following items: Main menu: Online Medical Care software has 5 main Buttons, according to which we can perform all kind of tasks, specified by the following Modules.

Chapter 5 Analysis of the Proposed System 5.1 Introduction Before the project is built and implemented it has to go through phases of Feasibility Analysis, Requirements Analysis and Cost-benefit Analysis. This analysis describes the need to develop a project on Online Medical Care and its benefits and the drawbacks of this project will come out while analyzing it and developing it.

5.1.1 Feasibility Analysis Most analysis agrees that there are four categories of feasibility test: • Operational feasibility is a measure of how well the solution of problems or a specific alternative solution will work in the organization. It is also a measure of how people feel about the system.

• Technical feasibility is a measure of the practicality of a specific technical solution and of the availability of technical resources. It is also a measure of schedule feasibility, if deadlines are established.

• Schedule feasibility is a measure of how reasonable the system timetable is.

•

Economic feasibility is a measure of the cost-effectiveness of a project or solution.

Operational and technical feasibility criteria measure the worthiness of a problem or a solution. Operational feasibility is people-oriented. On the other hand Technical feasibility is computer-oriented.

Schedule feasibility is the determination of whether the time allotted for a project seems accurate. Economic feasibility deals with the costs and benefits of the information system. Actually, few systems are infeasible. Instead, different options tend to be more or less feasible then others.

5.1.1.1 Operational Feasibility Operational feasibility criteria measure the urgency of the problem (survey and study phases) or the acceptability of a solution (definition, selection, acquisition and design phases). We measure operational feasibility to be considered by answering the following questions: 1. Is the problem worth solving, or will the solution to the problem work?

2. How do the end users and management feel about the problem (solution)?

We have done surveys and studied the problems to find out the solutions. The surveyquestionnaires are attached at the end of the report.

5.1.1.2 Technical Feasibility Consequently, technical feasibility looks at what is practical and reasonable. Technical feasibility addresses three major issues: 1. Is the proposed technology or solution practical?

2. Do we currently possess the necessary technology?

3. Do we possess the necessary technical expertise, and is the schedule reasonable?

5.1.1.3 Schedule Feasibility Schedule feasibility is defined on the question, given our technical expertise, are the project deadlines reasonable? Some projects are initiated with specific deadlines. We need to determine whether the deadlines are mandatory or desirable. For instance, a project to develop a system to meet new government reporting regulations may have a deadline that coincides with when the reports must be initiated. Penalties associated with missing such a deadline may make meeting it mandatory. If the deadlines are desirable rather than mandatory, the analyst can propose alternative schedules.

It is preferable (unless the deadline is absolutely mandatory) to deliver a properly functioning information system two months late than to deliver an error-prone, useless information system on time! Missed schedules are bad. Inadequate systems are worse! It’s a choice between the lesser of two evils.

5.1.1.4 Economic Feasibility The bottom line in many projects is economic feasibility. During the early phases of the project, economic feasibility analysis amounts to little more than judging whether the possible benefits of solving the problem are worthwhile. Costs are practically impossible to estimate at that stage because the end-user’s requirements and alternative technical solutions have not been identified.

However, as soon as specific requirements and solutions have been identified, the analyst can weigh the costs and benefits of each alternative. This is called a costs analysis.

We also have provided a cost analysis report, with the concern of our supervisor.

5.1.2 Feasibility Analysis of the Proposed System The feasibility analysis of this proposed project of online medical care therefore covers these four categories.

5.1.2.1 Operational feasibility Operational feasibility of this project determines the necessity of such a project like online medical care. At the present time everything is on the World Wide Web. Mostly every task can be done through or on the Internet. More over it can be done more efficiently, more conveniently and in a much lower cost. So every hospital is now providing their patients the easy and low-cost solution of making their appointment, booking, consulting online. So it is obvious that it is worth establishing an online medical care system to cope up with the present world. People will definitely appreciate and welcome this step because it is for their convenience. Hope, this software, will fulfill people’s requirements related to their need.

5.1.2.2 Technical feasibility Addressing the three major issues of technical feasibility it is definite that the proposed technology is practical. The patients/users will be able to give their appointment to doctor according to their need and give booking for several different services from anywhere in no time. In this fast going life of the present world nothing can be more practical than to have an online medical care system.

Considering the time period given for this project, the proposal states the project should be done using the web-development tool HTML, PHP. PHP can be used to design and implement a web site in a very short time and it can be linked with MySQL. And all these can be done and managed very easily in a short time. To make a demo web site on online medical care this tool is much practical.

5.1.2.3 Economic feasibility The economic feasibility of this project is much high because this project is based on free technologies. There is practically no expense in the development phase. So, economically this project is very feasible.

5.1.3 Requirements Analysis Requirements analysis is the task of defining and specifying the requirements that is needed to develop the system. After determining how the system will be developed, the requirements to design and develop the system are defined. To develop a demo online medical care project, the requirements are as follows: 1.

It is necessary to go through a cost benefit analysis to determine whether the project will be feasible economically. The primary objective of the cost benefit analysis is to find out whether it is economically worthwhile to invest in the project. To perform the analysis we first list all the cost associated with the project. The following list shows that: 1. Cost of hardware 2. Cost of software 3. Cost of the project team 5.1.4.1 Cost of Hardware This cost includes cost regarding the purchase and installation of the hardware.

The hardware needed for the proposed system includes web sever and workstations.

Web server is needed for testing our proposed system and workstation are needed for coding our proposed system. But the hospital already has web server running in existing system where we can test our system.

1. Cost of Internet Connection We already have Internet connection in our existing system so we don’t need another Internet connection.

2. Cost of LAN Setup In the existing system all the computer systems are connected to LAN. So there is no cost for LAN setup.

3. Backup Cost There is already UPS for Web server in our existing system. So there is no need to purchase any UPS for our proposed system.

So, there is basically no hardware cost for our proposed system.

5.1.4.2 Cost of Software The software needed in our proposed system includes Apache2Triad, where we get phpMyAdmin 2.6.1 and use the MySQL 4.1.11-log to build our database. The forms for the Online Medical Care menu are created with VISTA Buttons to reduce the cost. Both the Apache2Triad and vista buttons are freeware and so there is basically no added software cost.

Chapter 6 Design of the Proposed System 6.1 Introduction

In this chapter, the design of our proposed system is given in detail. Some screen-shots of the web site are also included. The data flow diagram of the system, the schema definition, ER-diagram and flow chart are used to describe the system-design.

6.2 Dataflow Diagram

A dataflow diagram (DFD) is a graphical representation of the "flow" of data through an information system. A data flow diagram can also be used for the visualization of data processing (structured design). It is common practice for a designer to draw a context-level DFD first, which shows the interaction between the system and outside entities. This context-level DFD is then "exploded" to show more detail of the system being modeled. The DFD of this project is given in the figure 6.1, 6.2 on page number 23.

Coding, Testing & Implementation 7.1 Introduction This chapter includes the codes of the proposed system. There are three types of coding used in this system. The front end uses HTML, PHP, java script. The online medical care forms are created using PHP scripts. These codes are given in this chapter as sample codes.

7.2 The HTML Code Sample The HTML code is used to create the Interface of the website. There are four HTML frame is used to build the front end. Two of them remain same until user or administrator Login. After anyone Login, the main body of the software react as user ‘s action.

7.2.1 Code for Choose User or Admin Mode: <html> <head><title></title></head> <body bgcolor="#CCFFCC" > <marquee style="font-size: 20pt; font-family: Georgia; font-weight: bold; color: #000080; borderstyle: solid" bgcolor="#00FFFF">Welcome</marquee> <form action=login.php method="Post" target="down"> <p><b><font color="Black" size="4">MODE:</font></b> <select name="d1" size="1" onchange="this.form.submit()"> <option value="Master">Admin</option> <option value="Local">User</option> </select> </form> </html>

7.3 The PHP Codes for the Online Medical Care Forms To maintain better security, the online medical care forms are created with PHP. The code is given below: 7.3.1 The login.php File <script type="text\javascript" > function aaa(form){ if(form.user.value!=""){ form.submit(); document.write("<p><hr><hr><h4>Dont forgot Your <p><font color='Red' size='4'>User Name</font><p>and<font color='Red' size='4'><p>Log on PassWord</font>"); document.write("<p>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;<img src=DNA.GIF>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href='main.php' target=main><b>Log Out</a></p><hr><hr>"); }//if else{ alert("Enter Valid User Name First !

Some JAVA Scripts Codes for the Online Medical Care Forms Java script code to input all necessary information

If any patient does not fill any necessary information into the form which are marked by *** sign, then they will be alert to fill the field. The code is as follows: <script type="text\javascript"> function aa(form){ if(form.T1.value==''||form.T5.value=='Select'||form.T7.value==''||form.T11.value==''|| form.T12.value==''){ alert(" Atleast fill the ***Field ! "); } else form.submit(); } </script>

7.4.2

If patient has any previous appointment to the same doctor:

If a patient want to give twice appointment to the same doctor, then he/she will be given alert. print<<<htm <script type="text\javascript"> var a=confirm("YOU ALREADY HAVE AN APPOINMENT TO THIS DOCTOR. DO YOU WANT TO CHANGE THE PREVIOUS???"); if(!a){ self.close(); } </script> 7.5 Testing and Implementation For validation check we ran through the whole system and each form. We checked whether all functions are performed correctly and data are stored securely and retrieved acceptably. For example, in service booking form whether the accurate service is reserved. In case of making an appointment to a doctor, if there is any previous appointment to the same doctor. If the information on the receipt that is generated for a patient to show farther in the hospital is correct. The insertion of the database like doctor, service or cabin information can only be done by the administrator. The total amount for each service is stored securely and shows the users correctly according to their due and advanced payment. If the patients do not confirm their booking within three days these will be automatically deleted. We checked that if the dates that are automatically deleted are correct according to the window date.

There are several steps of checking for the smooth running of the system. If users do not fill any compulsory field then they will be alert to fill the required filed. Without filling up these text fields data will not be stored into the database and booking or appointment will not be granted. And also the logged in user can only modify his/her personal information.

The system now can be implemented on live server. And then multiple users can use the software through the hospital website at a time as we implement the software for multiple users.

Chapter 8 Backup, Security and Maintenance 8.1 Backup of the Proposed System To take the backup of the database, we will use the phpMyAdmin Export option. The procedures are described in the following sections.

8.1.1 Taking Backup of the Database To take the backup of the database we will use the Export option the phpMyAdmin. We will select the tables for backup and check “Add DROP TABLES” and “Add IF NOT EXISTS” from the structure.

After that we will check the Save as File and then save the file on the hard disk or other storage devices by clicking on GO. We also provide the opportunity to the administrator to keep a backup of the database that is a copy of the total database in selected drive in a folder.

8.2 Security of the Proposed System: We have used PHP codes to create forms for the online medical care system just to make it more secured. We have given the Password field in the Login

form to ensure that only the concerned user can log in and get appointment or booked for service.

Even the logged in user can view and edit only his/her own information. Also the users cannot see all services without log in. We provide strong security for main database. Without the administrator no one can access there. Farther more none but the administrator can modify or change database. We also do not give the chance to enter a password by the user at the log in time. We rather provide a password to them, which is according to their user name by adding a random number. Before giving the password to the user we check the database and if it duplicates then we increase the random number by one. And do the same process again.

8.3 Maintenance The Administrator of the website will be responsible for the maintenance of the data-backup. The hardware team will maintain the smooth operations of the hardware.

Chapter 9 Conclusion and Future Works The Online Medical Care will be helpful for the hospital to cope up with the present competition that exists in the medical arena. It will build good will and increase user satisfaction as well as the number of users. This Proposed Online Medical Care System is a demo version that can be run on a test purpose. Then after understanding the requirements of the users more features can be added and the existing features can be more developed.

To run the System properly, proper training needs to be given to the administrator and the customer support officers so that they can help the user any time they need that.

The System can be upgraded by using higher quality hardware and the Standard edition of DBQ that has to be purchased.

There is a lot of scope to expand the features of this System and make it a stable version form this demo version. It will require more time and skill to do so, but this demo System shows the path to it.

Instant messaging system can be implement to this software, as a result users can send message to the doctors immediately.

Some diagnosis device can be connected with PC so that a patient will get treatment by online simply using online medical care software.

Payment system can be added to this software. As a result, account clearance can be possible by online.
