What is a Global e-PHR?
PHR means Personal Health Record and is preceded by the letter e because it is in an electronic (digital) format, specially designed to facilitate the upload of all your medical data.
The system is centered on patients’ needs and rights.
The record belongs to the patient, like an identity document (ID).
Patient is required to fulfill the register and work at the management icon of his e-PHR. Everything else will be provided by attending physicians, who are responsible for clinical data quality.
Physicians are oriented to create a problem list, according the worldwide known problem-oriented medical record described by Lawrence Weed. A data base composed by clinical history, physical exam and some preliminary laboratory data would support each listed problem. Based on each numbered problem, physician will define his intervention planning, which should be kept under surveillance and recorded in progress notes until it is resolved. Additionally, reports, images and videos of diagnostic exams should be uploaded by attending physicians into the designed icon.
Patients are stimulated to actively interact with their physicians to better qualify the problem list.
Global e-PHR also provides to the patients an automatic generated timeline of events and a summary including all uploaded information.
Patient access to his Global e-PHR is based on exclusive username (UN) and password (PW). Only the patient has the right to share his clinical information. At patient’s discretion, sharing his Global e-PHR should be restricted to professionals or institutions directly involved in his healthcare.

Problem List
Problem list

Before entering a new problem in the list, the attending physician should review all previously listed problems. No problem should be repeated. Each problem entered in the list is followed by the date and name of the responsible physician.
Data base
Data base
Each problem, entered in the problem list, will include relevant information obtained from patient’s history (anamnesis), physical exam and preliminary laboratory data. A medical report is immediately associated with the respective numbered problem and is automatically dated and electronic signed.
Planning
Planning
Each database supports a specific problem, generating diagnostic hypotheses and therapeutic interventions. Here, the attending physician will write a list of diagnostic hypotheses and order additional tests, improving the accuracy of the diagnosis. Here, physician provides therapeutic recommendations, supported by references and levels of evidence.
Exams
Exams
Here, patient exams are saved. The attending physician will classify the exams into categories: laboratory of clinical analysis, imaging, endoscopy, pathology, genetic markers and others. The attending physician will upload all data, including images, videos and reports. All information will be automatically dated and electronically signed.
Progress notes
Progress notes
Here the attending physician will write progress notes for each problem. Each note should be associated with the respective numbered problem and is automatically dated and electronic signed.
