[Puma-repository-applications] Creating the next step of HL7 support with PUMA HL7 engine

[Johannes W. D. <joh...@ru...>]

Recently, version 4.0 of SPINA Thyr, a cross-platform application that  
facilitates calculation of thyroid's secretory capacity, total  
deiodinase activtiy and other structure parameters of thyroid  
homeostasis from hormone levels in equilibrium, has been released.

Thanks to HL7 engine 1.6.1 the support of HL7 messages has been  
massively improved. SPINA Thyr has now been enabled to both import and  
export data as HL7 ORU^R01 messages, which also provides an easy way  
to store calculation results. In addition to laboratory results the  
new version is able to also embed patient identifiers and visit dates,  
a feature that improves both archiving, printing and interoperability  
with electronic health records and hospital information systems.

SPINA Thyr 4.0 is available for free from http://spina.sf.net for  
Desktop Linux, Mac OS X and Windows. PUMA units may be freely obtained  
from http://puma-repository.sf.net for Lazarus / Free Pascal.
