Patient Queue Management System

Journal Title: International Journal of Engineering and Science Invention - Year 2018, Vol 7, Issue 2

Abstract

A hospital is a health care institution providing patient treatment with specialized medical and nursing staff and medical equipment. Over the last few years, the number of seriously ill patients visit or admitted to hospitals has increased steadily which usually results in overcrowding. It may even contribute to violence in the hospitals and indirectly has effect on number of patients visiting hospitals. And here comes the need of Hospital Management System.[1] A Hospital Management System is a computer or web based system that facilitates managing the functioning of the hospital. Hospital Management System aims at digitization of patients data which is a need of an hour. Queue Management System is a part of Hospital Management System which can have direct effect on number of patients visiting the hospitals. The current Hospital Management System lacks waiting time prediction which results in wastage of patients’ time. This drawback can be overcome by using effective Queue management system which considers symptoms of patient.[2] It would be convenient and preferable if the patients could receive the most efficient treatment plan and know the waiting time predicted based on features and data taken accurately through a mobile application that updates in real time. The proposed Patient Queue Management System aims at reducing large queues in hospitals which ultimately results in saving time of patients. For each patient in the queue, the total treatment time of all the patients before him is the time that he must wait. Thus, proposed system tries to predict waiting time of each patient and schedule the online appointment. Index Terms— Digitization of patients data; Maintaining large queues at hospitals.
