eMD for Bariatrics Overview
eMD for Bariatric (eMDB) is a computer application
focused on three main areas:
Patient Information
Records patient's contacts, referring physician, co-morbidities,
allergies, weight loss programs and family history.
Operation
Records primary operation type, duration, additional procedures, previous
procedures and complications. Each type of operation has its own set of detailed
data, i.e., when performing a gastric bypass the application also records the
type of non-adjustable gastric band.
Follow-Up
Contains all visits performed by the patient since the initial visit. Each visit
addresses changes in weight, changes in co-morbidities and Quality of Life
surveys.
