Students at a Russian University Develop a Suite of Software Tools for Pediatricians

At Orenburg State Medical University, researchers have developed a suite of specialized software tools for nephrologists and pediatricians. The programs are protected by official software registration certificates and are designed to support a personalized approach to patient care. The project is led by I. V. Zorin, head of the Department of Outpatient Pediatrics. The university’s press service told IT Russia.

Assessing Risks and Making Prognoses

Two flagship programs — NeoTIPP and NeoKidney Prognosis — assess the risk of development and progression of tubulointerstitial kidney injury in children. They analyze clinical, laboratory, and instrumental data to generate an accurate prognosis of disease progression. The programs have been recommended for broad use in diagnostics and treatment.

Additional digital tools have been developed for district pediatricians and parents, including the Medkompas (Medical Compass) digital platform, the Trekker Vaktsinatsii (Vaccination Tracker) application, and a digital module for monitoring tuberculin diagnostics.

Medkompas and Trekker Vaktsinatsii

Medkompas is an interactive calendar that allows users to plan, track, and store a child’s complete medical history — from vaccinations and doctor visits to test results and examinations.

Trekker Vaktsinatsii simplifies the creation of personalized vaccination schedules in line with the national immunization calendar. The digital tuberculin diagnostics monitoring module maintains a structured record of tuberculin test results at the primary care level and enables frontline pediatricians to quickly and accurately identify children who require additional examinations and follow-up.

Previously, we reported that students from the Moscow Aviation Institute and Peoples’ Friendship University of Russia are developing a wireless insulin pump that can be controlled via a mobile app.
