hiv projects ruby on rails touchscreen touchscreen toolkit video This video shows how our system guides health care workers through HIV treatment protocols. After logging in, we scan a patient’s barcode, see their ‘patient dashboard’, then answer some questions and dispense the drugs.
The system uses Ruby on Rails, mysql and the touchscreen toolkit to deliver all of the functionality via a web browser running in full screen mode on a touchscreen computer.

He brought to life the HIV epidemic and showed how healthcare workers are being guided through treatment protocols and getting decision support from the data in realtime.
