ASKLEPIOS ALOHA--THE FUTURE OF OPEN-SOURCE MEDICAL SOFTWARE IN HAWAII

With a well-defined set of data elements, interactions, and 
procedures, it seems reasonable to expect a significant improvement 
in the quality of health care delivered throughout Asia and the 
Pacific. When a patient has to travel to Honolulu for treatment, his 
or her medical records will be easily obtainable, and follow-up 
treatment more easily monitored. Consultations will also be easier 
and the results less prone to errors of interpretation. It ought to 
be possible to get the same benefits in other medical centers, such 
as Singapore. Local health care service should be improved as well, 
due to the automation of current manual record keeping systems at 
almost no cost.

PANELISTS

Dan Davis, M.D., from Queen's Hospital and Interactive Care 
Technologies, a promoter and developer of  commercial medical 
software including at home telemonitoring.

Lawrence Burgess, M.D., Director of Telemedicine/Clinical Affairs,
John A. Burns School of Medicine, University of Hawaii.

Tin Myaing Thein, East-West Center alumnus and executive director of
Pacific Gateway Center (http://www.pacificgateway.org/).

Warren Togami, leader of the Fedora project  (http://www.fedora.us/)
and the Hawaii Linux For Schools project, showcased at Mid-Pacific
Institute.
