Начинаю цикл статей, посвященных Open Source медицинскому программному обеспечению.

Epi Info

Является свободным статистическим программным обеспечением для эпидемиологии, разработанным Центром по контролю и профилактике заболеваний (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention).

With Epi Info™ and a personal computer, epidemiologists and other public health and medical professionals can rapidly develop a questionnaire or form, customize the data entry process, and enter and analyze data. Epidemiologic statistics, tables, graphs, and maps are produced with simple commands such as READ, FREQ, LIST, TABLES, GRAPH, and MAP. Epi Map displays geographic maps with data from Epi Info™.

Epi Info™ for Windows retains many features of the familiar Epi Info™ for DOS, while offering Windows ease of use strengths such as point-and-click commands, graphics, fonts, and printing.

Key Features of Epi Info™

• Maximum compatibility with industry standards, including: Microsoft Access and other SQL and ODBC databases Visual Basic, Version 6 World Wide Web browsers and HTML
• Extensibility, so that organizations outside CDC can produce additional modules
• Epi Report, a tool that allows the user to combine Analysis output, Enter data and any data contained in Access or SQL Server and present it in a professional format. The generated reports can be saved as HTML files for easy distribution or web publishing.
• Epi Map, an ArcView®-compatible GIS
• NutStat, a nutrition anthropometry program that calculates percentiles and z-scores using either the 2000 CDC or the 1978 CDC/WHO growth reference
• Logistic regression and Kaplan-Meier survival analysis
• Data Compare does double data entry comparison
• Epi Lock password protects, encrypts, and compresses Epi Info™ data
• Teaching exercises
• Allows analysis and import of other file types

Bika LIMS

Open Source Лабораторная информационная система

Bika Lab Systems was established in 2004 by Lemoene Smit and Inus Scheepers, identifying a need for affordable and easy to use information systems and instrument interfaces for small and medium size laboratories, customised to requirement.

Web clients were becoming popular but few LIMS were web based, merely web enabled legacy systems. And none of them open sourced. Bika Lab Systems sponsors and co-ordinates the Bika open source LIMS project at SourceForge.net, committed to keep the Bika code free and available and to maintain effective organisational support.

Bika positions herself as complete service provider for all of the LIMS implementation life cycle - requirements analysis, design, customisation and development, project management and quality control, documentation, systems integration, administration, hosting, customer training and support. Innovative designs, reliable systems, quality support for all laboratories big and small.
