Background
The University of Sydney will be is undertaking an Atrial Fibrillation study within ten General Practices. The study involves clinicians utilizing an existing mobile device to ascertain if the patients pulse indicates to be normal or otherwise. The mobile device will be used as a decision support tool. The AF Topbar app will notify the clinician when patients are eligible for the mobile device.
The Atrial Fibrillation (AF) app will only display a notification, based on the following requirements:
...
The data collected through the AF app in Topbar will be extracted extracted by CAT4 and added to the file sent to 'The George Institute'. The four additional fields added to the file are:
- AF Test Data (dd/mm/yyyy)
- AF Test Time
- AF Test Result
- Topbar username
...
Only patient that have data stored in the Topbar database will be able to populate the cells in the CSV. If a patient does have the appropriate data, then the cells will be blank.
...
The AF app is displayed automatically when an eligibel eligible patient is opened in the clinical system and shows a small red circle with the number 1 to indicate one new notification.
The AF app can be turned off by clicking on the close option, or hidden by using the 'hide' option.
...
Clicking on the tile for the AF will open the full screen view for the currently opened patient:
The screenshot above is missing the 'Device Information' and the 'Study Details' text. In the final version the text displayed will be:
The following text will be displayed regardless of whether a patient meets the qualifying criteria or not.
...
A user can only select one at any given point. By default, all options will appear de-selected and the 'Save' button is greyed out.
Only once a selection has been made the 'Save' button will become active.
...
The Test Result will be visible to the user during the first 12 months from the date of the Test Result being saved.
Once an outcome of the test (Normal, Possible AF or Unclassified) is recorded, there are no further actions in the AF app. The red notification circle with the number 1 has now disappeared and will not be shown again for this patient for the next 12 months and then only if the patient still meets the eligibility criteria described in the introduction. The app can now be closed or hidden using the respective button and will appear again when the next eligible patient is opened in the clinical system.
