Intended Use & Scope of the Software

This document describes the intended use and scope of CareFlow Kids and CareView Family.

This section clarifies how the software is designed to be used and the limits of its intended functionality.

Intended use

CareFlow Kids and CareView Family are designed as clinical documentation and medical record organization tools.

Their purpose is to help clinicians and families:

  • record structured medical information
  • generate readable visit reports
  • monitor growth and development
  • organize medical documents
  • maintain portable patient records using .pemr bundles

The software is intended to assist the documentation and organization of clinical information, not to replace clinical judgment.

Target users

The applications are intended for:

CareFlow Kids

  • licensed physicians
  • healthcare professionals
  • clinicians documenting pediatric consultations

CareView Family

  • parents or guardians
  • patients and families reviewing medical information

These applications may also be used by healthcare professionals and families who wish to maintain portable medical documentation.

Nature of the software

CareFlow Kids and CareView Family function as clinical information management tools.

They allow users to:

  • record clinical observations
  • organize medical information
  • generate reports from structured data
  • exchange patient records through .pemr bundles

Some features may assist interpretation of clinical data, such as:

  • growth evaluation
  • structured summaries
  • guideline indicators
  • optional AI-generated suggestions

These features are intended only as supportive informational tools.

Not a medical decision system

The software is not intended to function as an autonomous diagnostic or treatment system.

It does not provide medical diagnosis and does not replace professional clinical evaluation.

All medical decisions must remain under the responsibility of the healthcare professional.

AI-assisted features

Some versions of the software may include AI-assisted clinical support features.

These features:

  • analyze structured clinical information
  • generate informational summaries or suggestions

However:

  • AI output may be incomplete or inaccurate
  • results depend on the data entered by the user
  • AI responses must always be interpreted by a qualified professional

AI features are therefore considered decision-support tools only.

Data integrity and responsibility

The software includes mechanisms designed to preserve medical data, including:

  • structured databases
  • integrity verification
  • controlled bundle export and import

However, users remain responsible for:

  • verifying the accuracy of entered information
  • maintaining backups of .pemr bundles
  • handling medical records appropriately

Limitations of the software

The applications are not designed to:

  • replace professional medical judgment
  • guarantee diagnostic accuracy
  • act as a regulated medical device decision engine

They are intended to support clinical documentation and record portability.

Summary

CareFlow Kids and CareView Family are designed as tools for organizing and documenting pediatric medical information.

They support clinicians and families by structuring medical data and generating reports, while leaving all clinical interpretation and decision-making to qualified professionals.
