 CSP handles instrument cleaning and preparation for Operating Rooms  Instruments required normally scheduled  Sometimes additional instruments are needed ◦ Nurse requests instruments ◦ CSP cleans and prepares instruments

 Most of the needed instruments are prepared ahead of time for the scheduled operations throughout the day  Sometimes additional instruments are needed  Requests for these instruments are generally made through phone calls or notes left on instrument trays  This can tie up phone lines and create an inefficient system of logging and tracking of instrument requests

 Implement a system that is capable of tracking requests by OR staff (nurse).  Implement in OR Room, Decontamination Room, and Sterilization Room.  Additional terminal for CSP coordinator to monitor request status.

 Nurse who work in the operating room. ◦ Make instrument request through the system.  CSP staff in Decontamination and Sterilization area. ◦ Receive request from nurse.  Coordinator monitors requests ◦ Can edit status as needed

 Based on set-up in Iowa Methodist Health Center in Des Moines  Operating Rooms  Every rooms has one terminal  Central Sterile Processing (CSP) Area  Decontamination Room – 1 terminal  Sterilization Room – 1 terminal  Supervisor Room – 1 terminal

 Operating Room Terminal ◦ Create Request ◦ Cancel/Clear Request ◦ View Request Status  Decontamination Room Terminal ◦ View Request Status ◦ Change Request Status  Sterilization Terminal ◦ View Request Status ◦ Change Request Status  CSP Coordinator Terminal ◦ Monitoring

 User friendly ◦ Straight forward user interface ◦ Organized user interface  Reliability ◦ Request confirmation ◦ Request status  Increase effectiveness ◦ Auto-matched function

Server Status Update Requests Information Operating Room Terminal Decontamination Room Terminal Coordinator Computer Sterilization Terminals Status Update

 Each terminal’s program will be linked to a server.  Every update will go through server and the server will update all terminal’s program simultaneously  The server stores past and present requests information based on the request number designated to each request.

 Workstation ◦ Windows XP ◦ Java available  Network is reliable  No confidential information displayed  Only used by hospital staff in designated areas

 Tools used ◦ Netbeans Swing GUI Builder ◦ Eclipse IDE  Learning Experience ◦ Java Swing programming ◦ TCP socket programming

 Table displaying current instrument request information  Buttons allowing easy-to-learn addition or removal of requests

 Picture of Add pop- up  Allows nurse to add a request by specifying the following information ◦ Room ◦ Case ◦ Instruments  Typing in instrument queries instrument database for matches

 Show status of current requests  Allows the user to change the status of the request

 Allows the user to change the status of a request  Status choices depend on terminal

 Allows a user to supervise active requests  Can message status

 Tools used ◦ Netbeans ◦ JavaDB  Learning Experience ◦ JDBC programming with SQL ◦ TCP socket programming

 Takes updates from terminals to add requests or change request status in the request database  Updates terminals when a change occurs in the request database  Queries instrument database to find possible matches for user instrument input

 JavaDB – Oracle supported implementation of Apache Derby  Created through Netbeans  Consists of two tables ◦ Requests ◦ Instruments

 Edit/Change function on OR terminal  Enhanced GUI interface display  Instruments details scroll pop-up function

JUnit Testing  Non-thread methods in the front-end software tested  These methods passed JUnit testing with various given inputs Functional Testing  Auto-complete, status requests, and request addition/deletion tested and succeeded

Manual Testing  Scenarios created to test the system with different configurations of possible real-time events encountered  Tested scenarios behaved as expected  Persistence of system database during shutdowns was tested Integration Testing  System tested on different computers on different networks  The Iowa State network, ad hoc, and a simple router were used to test the system  Computers used during testing ran Windows 7 OS  System requires that at least version JRE 1.7 of Java be used
