RESUMO
The growing healthcare burden on the elderly population, combined with an increase in prescription drug use, necessitates the development of novel solutions for improving elderly care. EldenCare connects doctors, clinical pharmacists, and elderly patients. EldenCare was developed by a multidisciplinary team comprising geriatricians, clinical pharmacists, and software engineers. The software offers various features tailored to the needs of each user group, revolutionizing medication management and patient care. For geriatricians, EldenCare provides efficient means of recording patient information, scheduling appointments, and documenting follow-up. Clinical pharmacists can take advantage of the software's advanced features, including identifying medication risks, facilitating dose adjustments, identifying potentially inappropriate medications, and tracking adverse drug reactions. Elderly patients benefit from features such as medication alerts, appointment management, medication lists and an adverse drug reaction diary. The study is divided into five distinct phases: requirements phase, design phase, coding & unit testing phase-frontend, coding & unit testing phase-database/cloud, testing phase. The expected benefits of the EldenCare software include increased medication safety, improved communication between healthcare providers and patients, and improved healthcare outcomes for older adults. EldenCare aims to revolutionise medication management and promote a patient-centered healthcare system by empowering clinical pharmacists and engaging older adults in their care-using technology.
