ArticleDescription: 1 archivo (798,7 kB)Subject(s): Summary: Time has an extraordinary relevance in medicine. The diagnoses of diseases or prescription of medicines frequently presents temporary references. The etiology of a disease frequently depends on when such a symptom appeared and the prescription of some drugs is severely constrained to certain temporary annotations. Every year, the health of the patients suffers due to the bad administration of medicines and an appreciable amount of money is lost by that bad practice. In this paper we want to contribute to mend this problem. In that vein, we approach a release software for controlling the medicine doses administration with an intuitive traffic-light code in order to help the patient to consume the drugs according to the temporary restrictions indicated by the doctor. That software involves three steps. The first one encodes into a database the guidelines of the IHS BCMA for timely medication administration. The second part is in charge to locate the timely restrictions associated to a given illness. By last, the software display to the user the time alarms associated to a prescribed treatment.
