OpenMRSWhat, Why and How?A beginners guide to implementationSuranga Nath Kasthurirathne
Hello and wellcome, my name is Suranga Kasthurirathne, Im going to talk to you about 1
About myselfBEng in Software Engineering (Hons) 1st Class, UoW, UK (2013)PhD (Health Informatics) 2018 (Expected)
Community Manager, (Asia-Pacific), OpenMRS
My interestsClinical Decision Support (CDS)Standards (HL7 and FHIR)Health Information ArchitectureBeing an Early Adopter for OpenMRSCat herding and mentoring
An early adopter is someone who embraces new tech before other people.Usually means Im always in a mess
Cat herding: managing different groups of people3
Who are you?
Raise of hands?How many of you know OpenMRS?How many have used OpenMRS?How many are in the masters programHow many are graduates of the program?4
What well coverWhat is OpenMRS?The evolution of OpenMRSFeature list and how-tosSoftware and apps that work with OpenMRSImplementation scenariosInteracting with OpenMRS

What is OpenMRS?
What is OpenMRS contd.The mission of OpenMRS is to improve health care delivery in resource-constrained environments by coordinating a global community that creates a robust, scalable, user-driven, open source medical record system platform
http://openmrs.org/about/mission/
Ok so youve see the video. Now, what is OpenMRS?7
Phrases the leadership loves to useGoing together going farNot re-inventing the wheelDoing what each group is good atWe wont do it for you, but well show you how to do it yourselves
8
Who uses OpenMRS?
9
What is OpenMRS used for?For clinical care (duh!)As a teaching toolFor research (everywhere!)As a Shared Health Record (Rwanda)As a Terminology Registry (Bangladesh HIE)For Notifiable Condition Detection (Indiana)
Can I try out the system?Public Demo: demo.openmrs.orgOpenMRS standaloneSet it up on your machineApache tomcatMySQL

Why doesnt OpenMRS support Feature X, Y and Z?
The evolution of OpenMRSDriven by real, and not perceived needsLong and arduousA wide variety of contributors from all parts of the globe
Phase 01Driven by the need to support the Academic Modelfor Prevention and Treatment of HIV/AIDS (AMPATH)Informed by lessons learnt in the development of the Regenstrief Medical Record System (RMRS)Need a strong concept dictionaryNeeded standardized forms
What is a concept dictionary?Afundamental building block of OpenMRSUsed to define datacollected by OpenMRS
Similar to a dictionary defining the function, meaning, and relationships of the words, the concept dictionary defines the name, code, and appropriate attributes for any observations or data collected (including medical tests, drugs, results, symptoms and conditions).17
Phase 02Breaking awayHTML forms and XformsOther standardsMVP concept dictionary
OpenMRS data entry forms
Phase 03The advent of mobile and tele-healthSOA and RESTThe evolution of MVP-CIEL
REST web services
Phase 04Thought leadershipNo more catch-up with the USRepresenting global needs to the developed worldFHIR workSupport for SMART / OHDSI, etc.
OpenMRS of the Future Present
OpenMRS of the PresentWhat is the OpenMRS Platform?What is the are OpenMRS Reference Application distributions?What is the OpenMRS Reference Application?
34
What are all these names?
The OpenMRS Reference ApplicationA state of the art implementation of OpenMRS, which may serve as a solid base for new implementationsIntroduces shiny new UIIntroduces the concept of Apps
Location based Login
Role based home page
An OpenMRS distributionAn open source hospital system for low resource settingsCombines three different Open source systems
Implementation Scenarios
Scenario 01:Collect data from maternal care visits at Homagama clinic
The OpenMRS form bankOpen Source forms!

What if there was a Master Patient Index (MPI)?
Often a single organization (a government, an NGO, or a hospital with satellite clinics) wants to run local OpenMRS installations at many individual facilities. But the organization wants to avoid creating duplicate patient records when the same patient population shows up at those different facilities.The solution to this problem is to have anenterprise-wide master patient indexwhich maintains a central registry of the unique patients that have attended any of the facilities, so that if any of those patients shows up at a new facility, their record may be imported and linked.53
What if you want to send out reminders to patients?
RapidSMSRapidSMS is a free and open-source framework for rapidly building mobile services for scale.RapidSMS is built withPython and Django

What if you want to report to a public registry?
The Notifiable Condition Detection moduleListens to incoming HL7 messagesEvaluates HL7 dataPerforms appropriate actions based on findings
Someone says, lets start reporting lab results
The clinicians already have pre-defined user credentials
What if Patients needed to move between clinics?

Interacting with the community: scenarios
Youre trying to setup OpenMRS on your machine
Youre trying to create some fancy forms
You need a new feature
You and your colleagues want to work together
