Strengthening Healthcare Referral Systems In Nigeria Using The Medical Referral Information Management System

The challenges faced by physicians and medical practitioners in referring patients to an appropriate healthcare provider for continuation of care, have been a major discourse in healthcare services. Most referral actions by physicians and practitioners are a mere handover of patients because of the inability of most receiving facilities to provide feedback to the initiating facility. These challenges have often led to delay in commencement of treatment and decreased collaboration between the different levels of healthcare – primary, secondary and tertiary. In this work, a system that enhances the referral process by aiding healthcare providers in establishing a connection with an appropriate healthcare provider for outpatient referrals was developed. The system enables patients establish first contact with a suitable primary healthcare provider. The methodology adopted is Object Oriented Hypermedia Design Methodology; it is one of the first methods to postulate the separation of concerns that defines its various models: requirements, conceptual, navigation, abstract interface and implementation. The system provides interfaces through which a healthcare provider can establish connection with another healthcare provider for purpose of referral. The results obtained using the system includes the recommendation of healthcare providers upon a specialty, care level and location based search request by a health provider. With the developed system, healthcare providers can easily reach nearby or far away healthcare facilities of varying specialties; this improves collaboration in healthcare services and strengthens the referral process

Development of IoT Based Smart Security Automation System Using Mobile App

Securities in Nigeria has been over emphasized and yet nothing has been done about it, the vandalization of lives and properties of Nigerians has become uncontrollable in Nigeria, most especially in remote places and some north parts of Nigeria. Houses, lives and properties in Nigeria are usually very important, that the construction of fences and security agencies cannot grantee the high level of security in our homes, mostly in some private properties. A functional Security system at home is very vital to all Nigerians, as to ensure that users or persons who do not possess certain level of authorization are barricaded from entering the house. This paper is proposed to use the concept of internet of things integrated in an electronic board called Ardiuno Board, which has the capability to house different electronic components and also with a WiFi interface which makes it accessible to the internet, also the WiFi interface came with an App which establishes communication between the device and a mobile phone, where the house owner having the mobile App installed on his phone could receive an email on real time. Also, an sms module will be integrated in the system which will take care of the situation where the house owner many not have access to the internet. A motion detector which detects abnormal movement sends message to the alarm module which triggers an alarm and at the same time sends an email on real time and sms. The current security system has the capacity to alert the neighborhood on current threat to the house. This Home security system will build some level of confidence in house owners as Nigeria is faced with security challenges

Optimizing the Sustainability of Renewable Energy: A Review on the Impart of Internet of Things

The problems of energy usage wastage, conservation and optimization has always been there. Most significantly in third world countries with a high level of improper energy resource management. The world has become a global village and tending toward the transformational use of technology assets and materials to optimize the usage of renewable energy; in this case the Internet of things. Renewable Energy are actually energy source that are continually replenished naturally by nature. The internet of things are interconnected system through which hardware system device are given instruction for instance to reduce energy wastage; the potential for further reduction of fossil fuel usage and wasted energy is become cosmic. Optimization here is the appropriate management of the energy generated by energy sources through use of internet of things. The modern technology such as the internet of things is to help harness and improve in management by switching between renewable energy sources alongside the enhancement in making effective energy source at given time and energy consuming device

Online Vehicle Recovery Tracking System

In today’s world, Vehicle recovery system are very essential in monitoring and stolen vehicles.  Vehicle Recovery  system is a work which aims in developing a computerized system to provide a better and a more efficient system for owners of registered vehicles to easily get back their stolen vehicles once they are found and also recordkeeping of vehicles.
