CDN STBBI Guidelines vs CHIP Mobile

Note: This application is intended for use by HEALTH PROFESSIONALS, and not the general public. For general information on sexually transmitted infections (STIs), refer to https://www.canada.ca/en/public-health/services/diseases.html This application provides Canadian health professionals with up-to-date recommendations for the screening, diagnosis, management, and treatment of STIs, including recommendations for antibiotic-resistant gonorrhea, in a convenient, concise, and easy to use format.
 It has been developed from the 2010 version of the Canadian Guidelines on Sexually Transmitted Infections (Guidelines) (http://www.phac-aspc.gc.ca/std-mts/sti-its/index-eng.php) and revised content from 2013 to 2016. These updates reflect emerging issues/trends affecting the management of STIs in Canada. Up-to-date information from other complementary resources has also been incorporated, including key recommendations from the HIV Screening and Testing Guide (2012) and the Management of Hepatitis B - Quick Reference (2013).
 The content is reflective of the most current evidence for the management of uncomplicated STIs in adults and youth only. It does not contain information for the management of STIs in pregnant women, children, neonates or complicated infections. 
 This application is intended to provide information to public health and clinical professionals and does not supersede any provincial/territorial legislative, regulatory, policy and practice requirements or professional guidelines that govern the practice of health professionals in their respective jurisdictions, whose recommendations may differ due to local epidemiology or context.

OKAKI’s CHIP Mobile application is an add-on to the full version of OKAKI’s Community Health and Immunization Program (CHIP) suite of products. CHIP is a secure SaaS based system and is available to authorized users who have a current subscription to CHIP. It was designed with a simple layout to allow quick, easy, and secure immunization record entry in community settings such as schools, mass immunization clinics, or the homes of vulnerable individuals who cannot be transported to immunization clinics. The application requests permission to use the camera so the application can scan barcodes for patient searches as well as vaccine vials for GTIN codes, lot numbers and expiry dates. Use of the camera is optional as the application is fully functional except for barcode scanning. This application does not access any user data on the phone (contacts, photos, mail etc.) nor does it store any information on the mobile device. It only requires a connection to the internet (Wi-Fi or cellular data).
