This is the initial Web page. As previously mentioned the focus is on functionality the colours of this site is creme and blue and the logo is the pink ribbon that is used to represent Breast Cancer. Cancer colour is cobalt blue. I passed validation for both CSS and XHTML 1.1 strict. This page is going to be used to build the rest. I've started implementing three use cases:- Log in, Book Appointment, Register New Patient.

Issues - No Computer
At present I don't have a computer. So for the past three weeks (August 20th - September11th) I have been overnighting at SBCS at least two days a week. However, I have not accomplished a lot, well not the same amount of work so I am behind schedule.
I have started the actual site, but will only be focused on functionality. I want the design to look like an actual appointment book with turning pages but that will have to wait until I get back my machine and can do the online tutorials and research at home.

Create an ODBC connection to a MS Access Database
I was originally going to use mySQL but had to change to Access since the Centre uses an access database. to store records.
Open the Administrative Tools icon in your Control Panel.
Double-click on the Data Sources (ODBC) icon inside.
Choose the System DSN tab.
Click on Add in the System DSN tab.
Select the Microsoft Access Driver. Click Finish.
In the next screen, click Select to locate the database.
Give the database a Data Source Name (DSN).
Click OK.
Open the Administrative Tools icon in your Control Panel.
Double-click on the Data Sources (ODBC) icon inside.
Click on Add in the System DSN tab.
Select the Microsoft Access Driver. Click Finish.
In the next screen, click Select to locate the database.
Give the database a Data Source Name (DSN).
Click OK.
Note that this configuration has to be done on the computer where your web site is located. If you are running Internet Information Server (IIS) on your own computer, the instructions above will work, but if your web site is located on a remote server, you have to have physical access to that server, or ask your web host to set up a DSN for you to use.
Prototype1 Outcome
I have completed the first phase of my prototype. This was used to determine if there where any more tables that were to be added to my conceptual model for the database. The information displayed is not a real person and is only used to display the functionality of the system. The prototype has a lot of the functionality that should really be done in the second protype phase.
Priority List:- 1.Hospital visits - first consultation at, or admission to a hospital for the cancer, including outpatient consultation. If this is not available the date refers to in decreasing order of priority:
2. First consultation at,or admission to a hospital, clinic or institution for the cancer inquestion.
3.First Pathology Report
4.First clinical diagnosis of the cancer by a phycisian
5. Date of Death preceding an autopsy
Primary Site/ Topography
The site of primary has to be accurately documented. Areas of the breast include:-
1.Areolar
2. Inner quadrant( broken up into upper and lower portions)
3. Outer quadrant( broken up into upper and lower portions)
4. Axillary tail of breast
5. Overlapping lesion of breast
6. Breast, Not otherwise specified
Histology - I will only be using to grouping (Neoplasms and CarcinomaNOS)for this since this can be broken down further
Staging - This provides information on the timing of the diagnosis. these are In Situ, Localised,Regional and Distant.
Method of Detection - this is the method used to first diagnose cancer cases.
Basis of Diagnosis - This is used to assess the reliability of incidence rates.
Appointment - During the second phase, instead of just including the appointment start time a Time Slot field to get the appointment duration will be used instead.
The appointment form should really only contain button to access probably treatment which is only used as a field here. This will have to be done in the second phase.
Schedule Mockup - This is not done yet and will most likely be done in the 2 prototype.
The Patient Registration form is made up of other tables like ethincity and city |
All the fields that are dispalyed as combo boxes are other tables in the database. These were originally listed as attributes, but were found to contain so many sub-parts that they should be separate tables to accurately capture data that would best serve to treat the patient effectively.
Test Resuts Form
Date of Incidence - This is the first date of Diagnosis based on the priority list of a cancer unless there is a report of any kind within the previous three months.
Priority List:- 1.Hospital visits - first consultation at, or admission to a hospital for the cancer, including outpatient consultation. If this is not available the date refers to in decreasing order of priority:

Depending on the health of the patient appointments may have to be rescheduled.
This form shows the treatment histoy for a patient receiving chemotherapy. Instead of the IDs being used will have to include the names of the treatment , patient and doctor instead.
Schedule Mockup - This is not done yet and will most likely be done in the 2 prototype.
