DermEngine Integration for Zedmed

 

This page explains how to set-up the DermSync software to sync patient demographic data from the Zedmed software to DermEngine.

While using this software, patients on Zedmed will be transferred to the DermEngine platform. On DermEngine, images and lesions can be added to each patient.


Requirements:

  • A Windows or Mac machine with Zedmed Office installed
  • The user needs to have permission to install DermSync

Steps:

  1. On the server* computer, download the integration software (DermSync)
For Windows DermSync-setup-service.msi For Mac 64 bit (x64)
DermSync.app

        *Not compatible with terminal servers

  1. If you are using a Windows Machine, install DermSync on your machine (Default Folder: C:\Program Files (x86)\DermSync\).
    Users need to have write permissions on this folder.
    Note: We recommend installing DermSync for all users.

  2. On the Zedmed server, create a folder that will be used for patient transfer files.
  3. In Zedmed Office, open settings under the "Utilities" tab, then click on "Third Party Links".
    In the section for added or changed patient, check the box for "Append to Patients.in".
