Overview

The Endocrinology module provides specialised tools for managing diabetes, thyroid disorders, and other hormonal conditions. It includes structured diabetes care plans, insulin titration tracking, thyroid function monitoring, and growth assessment charts.

The module integrates with lab results to auto-populate hormone levels, glucose readings, and HbA1c trends into the patient's endocrine profile.

Diabetes Management

The Diabetes sub-module (Endocrinology > Diabetes) provides:

  • Diabetes Registry -- Track all diabetic patients with Type 1, Type 2, GDM, and secondary diabetes classifications.
  • HbA1c Trend Charts -- Visualise HbA1c over 6-24 months with target bands (good control < 7%, fair 7-8%, poor > 8%).
  • Glucose Log -- Record fasting, post-prandial, random, and CGMS readings. Supports bulk import from glucometer CSV exports.
  • Insulin Management -- Document insulin regimen (basal, bolus, premix), dose adjustments, injection sites, and titration history.
  • Complication Screening -- Structured templates for annual screening: retinopathy (fundus exam), nephropathy (urine ACR, eGFR), neuropathy (monofilament test), foot exam, and cardiovascular risk.
  • Diet & Exercise Plan -- Calorie-counted meal plans, carbohydrate counting guides, and exercise prescription with target duration and intensity.
  • Patient Education Materials -- Printable handouts for newly diagnosed patients, insulin self-injection technique, hypoglycaemia management, and sick-day rules.

Thyroid Clinic

The Thyroid sub-module (Endocrinology > Thyroid) includes:

  • Thyroid Function Tracking -- TSH, Free T3, Free T4 trends over time with reference ranges and medication correlation.
  • Medication Titration -- Track levothyroxine/methimazole dosing with lab-guided dose adjustment recommendations.
  • FNAC/Biopsy Tracking -- Document thyroid nodule evaluations, FNAC results (Bethesda classification), and surgical planning for thyroidectomy.
  • Post-Thyroidectomy Follow-up -- Calcium monitoring, voice assessment, and thyroid hormone replacement tracking.
  • Thyroid Eye Disease -- Clinical Activity Score documentation and ophthalmology referral integration.

Growth & Puberty Assessment

For paediatric endocrinology cases:

  • WHO and IAP growth charts auto-plotted with height, weight, and BMI percentiles.
  • Bone age assessment documentation.
  • Growth velocity calculation (cm/year).
  • Tanner staging for puberty assessment.
  • Growth hormone stimulation test documentation.
  • Mid-parental height and predicted adult height calculations.

Hormonal Profiles

Structured documentation for:

  • Pituitary hormone panels (GH, IGF-1, Prolactin, ACTH, FSH, LH)
  • Adrenal function (Cortisol, DHEAS, Aldosterone, Renin)
  • Gonadal hormones (Testosterone, Estradiol, Progesterone)
  • Calcium metabolism (PTH, Vitamin D, Calcium, Phosphorus)
  • Dynamic tests (OGTT for GH, Dexamethasone suppression, Synacthen test)

All results are linked to the patient's endocrine timeline and can be compared across visits.

Notes

Tip

Set up the Diabetic Panel in lab test panels (HbA1c + Fasting Glucose + Post-Prandial Glucose + RFT + Lipid Profile) to order the complete screening in one click.

Clinic tip

For solo endocrinology practices, the Diabetes Registry and HbA1c Trend Chart are the two most impactful features. Start with these and add complication screening later.

Warning

Always verify insulin doses in the prescription against the patient's current regimen. Insulin errors are among the most common medication errors in hospitals.
