The Brief Psychiatric Rating Scale (BPRS) is rating scale which a clinician or researcher may use to measure psychiatric symptoms such as depression, anxiety, hallucinations and unusual behaviour.

BPRS is a widely used instrument for assessing the positive, negative, and affective symptoms of individuals who have psychotic disorders, especially schizophrenia. It has proven particularly valuable for documenting the efficacy of treatment in patients who have moderate to severe disease. The scale is the one of the oldest, widely used scales to measure psychotic symptoms.

What is a Continuity of Care Document (CCD)?

The CCD is a global standard for electronically exchanging a patient health summary. The CCD contains a core data set of the most relevant administrative, demographic, and clinical information about your or a family members healthcare. Covering one or more healthcare encounters, it provides a means for one physician, hospital, or other clinical setting to aggregate all of your pertinent data and electronically forward it to other healthcare providers, to support the continuity of care.
Its primary use case is to provide a snapshot in time for a specific patient. These "snapshots" of a patients health data that are useful and possibly lifesaving, if available at the time of a clinical encounter.
Because it is expressed in the standard data interchange language known as XML, a CCD can potentially be created, read and interpreted by any electronic medical record (EMR) or electronic health record (EHR) software application.


What does this mean to you?

The CCD along with openAirWare’s Patient CCD Reader will make it easy for you to share you or family members medical information with Primary Care Providers, Referring Physicians, urgent care, and emergency departments. The CCD can encompass your clinical information facts about your medical history and condition.
