Designing an Electronic Medical Application
Pharmacist Ibrahim Muhammad Ibrahim and pharmacist Ahmed Shawqi Hassan, teaching assistants in the Department of Microbiology and Immunology, obtained a copyright certificate for designing an electronic application called (AI-Biotic) which an android application that gives a serial of questions and features that could be helpful for physicians in choosing antibiotics and calculating doses. This application would leverage a vast database of patient information, resistance patterns, and antibiotic guidelines to assist physicians in making informed antibiotic prescribing decisions. Upon entering patient details and suspected infection, the app. would suggest evidence-based antibiotic options tailored to the specific case. It would also factor in allergies, renal function, and other relevant patient factors to ensure safety. Additionally, the app would calculate appropriate antibiotic dosages based on weight, age, and severity of infection, reducing the risk of under dosing or overdosing.
