Ayu is a compilation of digital protocols built out as mindmaps. A mindmap is a graphical representation, like a flowchart, describing a logical process flow. It is a diagram which that is hierarchical and shows the relations between pieces of the whole, like a family tree. It allows you to make and take notes in a creative and logical way that helps to map your ideas and brain pathways.

Info

A complete protocol set will include the screening/ chief complain complaint protocols, past medical history protocol, family history protocol, and physical examinations protocol.

...

Step 1: Download and open Freemind, a software used to build mindmaps. https://sourceforge.net/projects/freemind/

Info

Nodes: Nodes help connect various branches throughout the mindmap. The Root node is the base idea or concept. Any subnode of a given node is called a child node, and the given node, in turn, is the child’s parent. Sibling nodes are nodes on the same hierarchical level under the same parent node. Nodes higher than a given node in the same lineage are ancestors and those below it are descendants.

Step 2: The single-node seen on a new file is the ‘Root node’. This is the main title of your protocol

...

Step 4: Create ‘Child nodes’ from the parent node. These are the possible choices for the first-level questions. Many such levels further probing the choices can be nested under each of the nodes.

Info

Attributes: Attribute Attributes define the characteristic of the node. Nodes can be given different attributes depending on the desired outcome. The attributes used in digital protocols are:

  1. display: The content written in this attribute will be displayed on Android. This attribute is used to simplify clinical language for the users.

  2. display-xx: The content written in this attribute will be displayed according to the language setting on Android. This attribute is used to translate the content in display attribute or node to local language. eg. display-fr will have translated French content, display-hn will have translated Hindi content and the user can switch between language from Android App.

  3. language: The content written in this attribute will be displayed on the Web Application. This attribute is used concise into clinical language for doctors.

  4. pop-up: The content in this attribute will show as a pop-up box on Android. This attribute is used to prompt health messages to the patients and/or action items to the health workers.

  5. input-type: This attribute allows the user to insert values depending on the different types. There are 5 main input-types:

    1. number: prompts a text box to insert numeric values

    2. text: prompts a text box to insert text values

    3. duration: prompts a text box to select duration from days, weeks, months, years

    4. date: prompts a text box to select date in dd/month/yyyy format

    5. range: prompts a text box to select a numeric range with pre-defined unit eg. 4-5 days or 10-12 cigarettes per day

...

Step 7: Create a Physical Examinations protocol following the previous steps. This protocol contains all the physical exams of all screening/chief complain complaint protocols. The second level of node is the location of the body where the physical exam is performed and the third level of node is what physical exam is performed.

...

Info

Advanced attributes:

  1. perform-physical-exam: This attribute connects the screening/chief complain complaint protocol to physical examination protocol. This attribute is used on the root node to trigger relevant physical examinations questionspos-condition:

  2. neg-condition:

STEP 8: In order to trigger the right physical exams on the screening/chief complain complaint protocol, type the second and third level nodes of physical exam protocol in the content box in the exact way as it is written in the physical examination protocol.
