Currently, the Laboratory Techniques course uses paper sheets that list all the tests. A student begins by entering patient information on the form and then checks off the tests to be performed. This process is time-consuming, as there are as many as 300 tests on one A4 sheet.
To simplify and modernize this, the teachers want to switch to a digital solution. This switch shrinks the gap between the working field and the educational environment, which is in line with the modern requirements of the sector.
For the backend we used Java Spring Boot and for the frontend Svelte. These are loosely coupled, meaning that the backend is fully addressable with APIs. As a database we chose SQLite, which is ideal to ensure privacy, everything is also hosted within Thomas More.
The application is hosted in a Docker container on the Azure environment at school.
The application is inspired by similar lab software such as GLIMS. Samples are linked to tests to be performed. After execution, students can record the values and compare them with reference values, as is done in professional labs.
When all tests with results are registered, a PDF can be printed with all the results.
