- Appropriate assessments in forming new guidelines and workflows
- Track the use of medicines and collect data regarding the severity of medicines
- Reconciling multiple data sources into proper and meaningful guidelines
By developing a dynamic administrative tool for guidelines management and workflow creation, we overcome the challenges. From UIL (a centralized system tool), a condition is built with regard to certain criteria such as age, sex, health information, and so on. According to a condition, an appropriate recommendation is built, which is a workflow. The tool can create multiple workflows from an indication and a group of workflows forms a guideline. This guideline is then followed by the hospital or a network of the particular hospital.
This workflow management software mainly covers:
- AntiMicrobial Stewardship: A concept for promoting the rational use of antimicrobial drugs.
- Guidelines: A guideline consists of many workflows to guide the end-users to find the most appropriate recommendations (recommended drug or combinations of multiple drugs) based on the patient's health record and physical findings in a hospital.
- Workflow: A workflow consists of recommended drugs or combinations of multiple drugs which will be derived based on certain defined conditions for an indication. There could be any number of preferred recommendations and alternate recommendations in a workflow for an indication, the order will be defined by the sequence in which the recommendations are configured on the workflow.

The world urgently needs to change the way it prescribes and uses antibiotics because antibiotic resistance is rising to dangerously high levels in all parts of the world. With the development of this guideline and workflow management software, we can take a stand against antibiotic resistance. The tool benefited our client to improve their clinical outcomes and minimize harm by improving antibiotic prescribing and providing a guideline to find the appropriate drug for a particular disease for a person. Moreover, migration is easier with this tool, that is when it comes to moving an entire system to another, importing guidelines from the existing system to another network seems a bit tedious task.
Other benefits of this tool include:
- Readymade workflows available
- Create new workflows
- Reports are available (which show who used it, how many users used and so on)
- Can import guidelines from an existing system
