I-Med-Design and Evaluation of the iMed Intelligent Medical Search Engine

ABSTRACT:

This project is an online medicine search web application. This application allows a visitor to search for a medicine and addresses of medical stores (whole-sale and retail sales) where the medicine is available. This application is a solution. So, this web application is planned to develop based on the requirements of the client.

PROJECT OUTPUT VIDEO:

EXISTING SYSTEM:

Recently, telemedicine, especially tele-monitoring techniques, has been investigatedas a cost-effective approach to control quality of care (QoC) in out-patient medication administration. Bysending in-take reminders to the patient (even producing theproper medicine from a medicine dispenser) and thenrecording patient’s responses, Health MaintenanceOrganizations (HMO) hope to reduce cost of servicewhile improving quality of care. Communication between HMOs and patients is established through wired or wirelessInternet connections.

PROPOSED SYSTEM:

Client is a small scale pharmaceutical company that is distributing generic medicines to emergency medicines and having a good network of medical (retail) stores. Main need of the client is to prepare an online application to help the needy people in finding the availability of the medicine and a list of medical stores where the medicine is available. Visitor can quickly find the nearest medical store by selecting the area in the search tools.

ADVANTAGES OF PROPOSED SYSTEM:

• This application also provides a login account to a registered medical store. Using this account a person from the medical store can update the list of medicines and their stock on daily-wise. This avoids providing outdated data to the visitor.
• In this system each schedule can be tracked from the start till the end of the Project cycle.
• User friendliness is provided in the application with various controls.
• The system makes the overall project management much easier and flexible.
• Readily uploads the latest updates and allows users to interact.
• There is no risk of data mismanagement at any level while the project is being developed.
• It provides a high level of security with different levels of authentication.
