WCN26-9183 USE OF A GOOGLE-BASED ELECTRONIC DATA COLLECTION SYSTEM FOR MANAGING HAEMODIALYSIS PATIENTS IN A LOW-RESOURCE SETTING

Collection of accurate data on patient cohorts including demographics, diseases, treatments and outcomes is essential for clinical care, quality improvement and planning. Electronic data systems offer the opportunity to gather and view data of large cohorts of patients from a single point, providing an opportunity for more systematic management and audit, particularly when the case burden per health care worker is very high. While a few centres in Sri Lanka have developed electronic medical record systems, across most of the country, records remain paper-based.
