We at EMR4DW are constantly striving to improve and develop our software. This is largely in response to the needs of the clinics. The midwives, for example, have long lobbied for a separate midwifery page designed to cope with the large families they work with. This is currently under test. Development can also can occur in response to academic and research requirements. We are currently collaborating with fellow charity Medair and a University in Korea investigating the efficacy of immunisation against rota virus, in young children in the Democratic Republic of Congo in Africa. Rota virus causes severe diarrhoea and is a killer of young children. It is essential we can identify which children are being vaccinated accurately and the researchers requested we incorporate finger print technology into EMR4DW.
