1.1 Project Introduction
Clinic Edge is a patient case simulator designed for medical education that generates realistic clinical case scenarios in gynecology and obstetrics, supporting both static and dynamic patient cases. Dynamic cases are built upon probabilistic templates, allowing the system to generate an endless number of non-repititive patient cases.
Clinic Edge offers an interactive way to explore, assess and request patient data like in a real clinical setting, with case-specific data such as imaging, lab values, etc. generated on demand.
Clinic Edge supports two types of cases:
- Dynamic cases are based on predefined probabilistic templates that auto-generate case-specific findings, values, and symptoms.
- Static cases are based on fixed values and reports, usually representing a typical presentation of a diagnosis. These cases are especially useful for teaching purposes.
All cases are stored as JSON files and managed through Supabase, the platform used as the backend database.
Core Features:
- Select patient cases by choosing a cardinal symptom (e.g. abdominal pain) on the landing page.
- Modify or create your own cases and templates, including lab values, vitals, imaging, and history.
- Request case-specific reports in real time using
FindingsTemplate
. - Chat with the patient to explore medical history using the AI-based chat option.
