Abstract

This paper presents an electronic health records (EHR) management web system for patients with mental disability, allowing the access from mobile devices. The system gives priority to information security to guarantee the privacy and confidentiality of the data handle. Moreover, it provides features, which improves the typical use of common web systems, like accessing to the mobile camera from the web for taking images or videos and a complete interoperability with other systems using the medical standards HL7-CDA R2 and DICOM. The whole system is implemented using open technologies and free software.
