Take your personal digital assistant to the next level.

Many family physicians spend significant time working outside the office, visiting nursing homes, hospitals and other facilities. For these times, there are excellent software programs for personal digital assistants (PDAs) that allow physicians to carry a subset of patient data beyond the office as well as input information gathered outside the office for future use. For example, I use PDA software to track allergies, problems and medications taken by my patients at a nearby nursing home. These elderly patients’ medications can change between visits because they see many subspecialty doctors. With my PDA I am able to capture these changes and ensure my office records are up-to-date. This article discusses some useful patient-tracking programs as well as a program that allows easy database creation on either Palm or Pocket PC devices.
