Our Systems
Below are links to each PMA system developed to-date. Click as
required to see information on the type of patient data held, the range of
reports available and example screen shots of the data entry pages for the
selected speciality:
The systems are designed to be quick and easy to use, with drop-down selections, tick boxes and calendars for entering dates. Key information is highlighted in red and validated at entry time to ensure patient information is kept as accurate and complete as possible.

Each PMA System conforms to a basic design to promote ease of use
irrespective of the particular speciality, with its own signature
coloured background. The common set of data entry screens includes:
- patient details : demographics, NHS number, sex, date of birth,
GP, address, phone numbers etc.
- referral & admission : referral dates, patient history, results of
investigations, diagnoses, pre-op treatment etc.
- surgery : hospital, surgeon & grade, procedures, measurements,
tumour details etc.
- 30 day post-op audit : complications following surgery, days in
hospital, discharge details, post-operative death
- pathology : histology, morphology, tumour assessment,
measurements, staging etc.
- P-Possum : pre-operative and operative values and scores
- tumour markers : serum tumour marker levels (pre, peri and
post-operative)
- follow-up : recurrence, further surgery, results of investigations,
on-going therapy, death etc.

Each PMA System has a common set of audits, reports and facilities, including:
- clinic attendance & non-attendance summaries
- patient summary displays for MDT meetings with optional printing
of patient notes
- general and specific audits for internal hospital reporting
- appropriate National Minimum Dataset and Cancer Waiting Times
reports
- P-Possum auditing by hospital/surgeon/operation
- post-operative complications reporting
- export of data into Excel, MS Word and Access so information can
be exchanged easily
- PAS link (if PMAS is networked and a connection into the
hospital PAS is allowed).
- backup and restore routines
- database integrity checks
All PMA Systems can be used in conjunction with our Statistics
module for research purposes and the management of survival
expectancies including:
- comparing the effect of different treatments and techniques on survival
- calculating five year survival figures
- building life-table and log-ranking graphs
- running multi-variant analyses of selected conditions
- exporting graphs into PowerPoint presentations
- exporting all calculations into Excel for further analysis
