Re: Multiple visit to same patient

 

Hello Nami,

DHIS2 is not a classic medical record system for handling diagnosis that
are determined at the point of interaction between a patient and a doctor.
DHIS2 is for managing routine services/visits - meaning you need to know,
before hand, the diagnosis you are going to provide to a patient.

Can you tell us more about your needs - especially the diagnosis part? Is
it possible to talk about types of diagnosis here - something like
diagnosis for TB, HIV, Cancer, ... whatever disease type you wanted to
handle? You can also talk about diagnosis at dataelement level - for
example "general diagnosis" and in this diagnosis measuring weight, blood
pressure, temperature, and other key aspects...

You need to decide on the diagnosis types - this can not be left open.
Defining the diagnosis types helps you to decide on the number of stages a
program can have. Then you can make the stages repeatable - this allows you
to handle multiple visits per patient per diagnosis.

Hope this helps.

Thank you,
Abyot.
