Custom Medical Software Development

Why does the healthcare industry play such a significant role?

Every one of us use healthcare software

We use medical services practically over all of our lives - starting from buying medicines from the online pharmacy, through simple procedures at the dentist, to more serious surgeries. Custom medical software is an integral part of the healthcare industry.

Medical software pushes science forward

More and more dangerous diseases, and the desire to find a cure for illnesses accompanying mankind for a long time.Such motivation have always effectively accelerated scientific development which improved the quality and length of human life. The purpose of the healthcare industry is to make the world the better place to live for every and each of us.

Healthcare industry is one of the largest and most profitable ones

Before the medicine reaches our hands it has to go through strict verivications. Production, tests, certifications, but also the logistics itself requires a lot of work of many people, including programmers who create management systems. The costs of materials, facilities, medical software and people must be covered. That is why this industry is so big.

The critical importance of custom healthcare software development

Every level of the medical industry requires high quality products, and therefore attention to details from creators - after all, its services are meant to save lives. Therefore, it is not a surprise that various types of custom healthcare software are widely used in this industry. Thanks to that, the risk of human error is effectively minimized and human work is significantly simplified. This saves a lot of costs and time, while increasing quality and efficiency.

Meet the main beneficiaries of healthcare software

Custom medical software makes life easier and helps to improve the quality of many people’s lives. It is one of the factors that contributred to improvement in life expectancy and reduction of fatal diseses number. We proudly support making the world a better place, by developing healthcare software. Our work has a direct impact on the lives of major groups of people, such as:

Touchscreens make life easier for end users

In more and more industries - including the medical field - touchscreen devices are gaining popularity. This growing trend isn’t without a reason – a departure from the traditional mouse and keyboard use not only speeds up work, but also makes it easier - see why:

Clarity

Medical software is the intermediary between the user and the advanced logic behind the application backend. It is important that the user has access to as much valuable information as possible. Touch screens, because of their size, but also their scrolling capabilities, can interact with him in a simple and user-friendly way.

Easiness of use

During surgery, the medical staff may not have the time or even the possibility to use the software with a mouse or keyboard. With the help of touch screens he can control the procedure with a single drag of a finger.

Medical software portability

Medical apps of everyday use can be easily installed on your smartphone and tablet. You can then use them to monitor your health, or control an external device, such as egoo.health

One of our main areas of expertise is HMI software development. That also includes medical software development services for devices that require to have a touch screen.

High quality means high responsibility

Custom healthcare software development is a process that requires extreme accuracy, as well as the ability to anticipate all use cases. There is a long list of standards to meet. For that reason several important factors need to be considered when developing healthcare software:

Safety and reliability of healthcare software

Certain information, like for example the patient's blood pressure and pulse rate during surgery, may be essential for the doctor. It cannot happen that the medical application suddenly stops working - some of its elements must work independently from the rest of the application. In order to achieve that, crucial functionalities of the app should be separated from the less important ones, wherever it’s possible.

Superior performance

While most applications should be optimized, this is much more important in the case of medical software and even more in the case of medical device that runs on a resource-limited hardware. Human health or even life is at stake - it is unacceptable that surgeons' work is slowed down by application’s low performance. Thanks to the logic created in C++ and our team of experienced specialists we can achieve the highest possible application performance, while maintaining a user-friendly interface.

Application architecture and data security

Before the process of creating a medical application begins, the structure of its logic must be planned in detail, as well as data management schemes - both for patients and staff. We want the application to work as efficiently as possible, while preserving the operation of critical functions, and the patient wants to remain anonymous. For this purpose, it is worthwhile to use a consultation - check out our consultation services here.

Scalability and longevity of hardware

In case of digital health devices, software is not enough - we should also make sure, that the hardware on which it is running, allows the smoothest and most efficient work of the launched application. Such hardware should also work reliably, and often uninterruptedly for many years. It must be good enough to be able to run latest software updates.

Why Qt framework is a perfect choice for medical software development?

Qt framework is a stable and powerful toolkit that allows you to create efficient applications with beautiful UI. Qt is the technology of choice for most of our projects and a tool we excessively specialize in. It is a technology that is widely used in healthcare industry. Why is Qt a good choice for healthcare software development?

Let us create your healthcare software healthcare software

Do not choose a development team blindly - entrust the work to proven experts. Scythe Studio is a group of Qt QML specialists, experienced in cross-platform application development and creating healthcare software. Our goal is to deliver high quality software and meet the needs of a wide range of products. We have extensive experience in healthcare software development. We can develop a medical application together with you, regardless of its purpose or target platform. Take a look at solutions that we can deliver.

Dedicated applications for medical devices

Applications for special platforms and medical devices. This type of software has a complex logic, but also a clear, user-friendly interface. Applications of this type usually interact with the user through touch screens. Custom healthcare software of this type often uses dedicated features such as DICOM viewer or medical imaging.

Healthcare apps

We develop apps for smartphones, tablets and desktops that make your daily life easier and help you monitor your health. We publish the software in the most popular app stores such as Google Play, App Store, and Microsoft Store.

Medical control applications

Special software for smartphones designed to control external medical devices. We are also able to connect the application with devices monitoring health parameters, such as smartwatches.

80%

Of our projects are about custom healthcare software development. See our selected case study.

Custom UX/UI panel software development

We have been responsible for the development of complete medical software solution put on the totally custom hardware platform. During the cooperation we were involved in both application's backend and user interface development. The application was designed to fulfill the needs of medical staff during specific surgeries. We were happy to help the world leading company to accomplish their goals. Below is the testimonial received from the customer's Head of Software Development.
