Project Introduction
GastrOptim empowers healthcare professionals, with an advanced application designed to optimize the quality of digestive care.
The goal was to deliver a specialized digital platform that supports doctors across the complex spectrum of gastroenterology, from inital consultation and general proctology to advanced diagnostic workflows.
Technology Stack
We worked with a wide range of modern and low-level technologies to improve infrastructure, backend logic, app performance, and smart device communication:
Backend and Infrastruktura
AWS, Node.js, PostgreSQL
Desktop
React.js, Figma
AI & ML
OpenAI (Whisper, GPT), Mistral (via AWS Bedrock)
Mobile
React Native, Figma
Project Scope & Deliverables
The dedicated ITSharkz team focused on building a complete, structured workspace:
- AI Medical Scribe: A sophisticated voice-to text engine tuned for specific French gastroenterological terminology.
- Take Care Process: The core of the platform, designed as
- Cross-Platform Experience: A cohesive ecosystem where doctors can start a session on a mobile device during rounds and finalize notes on a web dashboard.
- Biometric Security Layer: FaceID and TouchID integration for frictionless yet secure access.
- Design & Architecture: Defined the information architecture, set up a reusable design system, and created a high-fidelity prototype of the full application.
Challenges:
- Global solutions lacked depth in specialized fiels; no tool could accurately process highly specific French gastroenterological terminology
- Doctor handle fragmented information (lab results, anapath histology, reports)
- Doctors need to manage complex cases efficiently without a “noisy dashboard”
- Handling sensitive patient data required strict security compliance (GDPR/HIPAA equivalent)
Solutions:
- Strategic AI Model Selection: Engineered a bespoke hybrid solution (OpneAI Whisper/GPT, Mistral via AWS Bedrock) for the “Golden Ratio” of speed and accuracy for the specific vocabulary
- Structured”Take Care” Process: Designed a guided, step-by-step flow for patient case management (Patient Card, Medical Report, Anapath, Recommendation Report, Files)
- Actionable Dashboard: Focused on “what needs my attention now”, listing active cases with progress alerts and quick actions (e.g., “Continue last case”) to help doctors get back into context instantly
- Integrity in Every Line: Implemented advanced encryption, strict token policies, and frictionless biometric authentication (FcaeID/TouchID)
Features & Capabilities
AI Medical Scribe:
Voice-to-text engine, converting complex dictations into structured notes
Dashboard (Actionable Clarity):
Displays active cases and progress alerts; for instant context recovery.
Team Management
Dedicated area to manage staff, view roles, and see status for quick oversight.
Guided "Take Care" Process
Core 5-step flow for easy cases management.
Goals & Outcomes
- Mastering Medical Nuance: Achieved transcription quality that recognizes the nuance in French digestive health diction, significantly reducing manual corrections.
- Enhance Operational Efficiency: The mobile-first approach allows doctors to dictate notes instantly, streamlining the clinic’s workflow and completing patient records faster.
- Upcompromising Security: Implementation of advanced encryption and biometrics ensures necessary compliance requirements are met, maintaining patient trust.
