glytch / flagship — clinical operations
AstroMED
the operational platform for clinics that can't afford to fail.
One system holds the whole clinic — doctors, nurses, pharmacists, lab, reception, and the patient — and keeps every screen in sync, in two languages, in real time, without your data ever leaving your facility.
One system. Every role.
AstroMED isn't a doctor app with bolt-ons. It's a single platform purpose-built around six roles — each with its own home, each speaking to the others in real time.
Doctor
A workstation tuned for the consult — patient lookup with full history, structured notes, consultations, procedures, and shift handover. CPOE that catches dangerous prescriptions before they leave the room.
- patient lookup & history
- prescriptions with interaction checks
- clinical notes & consultations
- structured shift handover
Nurse
The most-used screen in the building. Vitals, medication administration, pending orders, supply requests, and the Code Blue trigger that turns every authorized device into a coordinated response.
- vitals + medication administration
- pending orders & nursing tasks
- supply requests pipeline
- Code Blue emergency trigger
Pharmacist
Built around how pharmacies actually work. Dispensing, stock visibility, warehouse integration, drug interaction lookup, and a clinician-grade education library — all in the same window.
- integrated dispensing
- live stock & warehouse view
- drug interaction lookup
- education library
Lab Technician
The lab tech sees what the doctor ordered the moment it's ordered. Result entry knows the LOINC codes, the units, and the gender/age-specific reference range — abnormal values flag themselves.
- live pending-test queue
- LOINC-coded result entry
- reference-range auto flagging
- full sample history
Lab Doctor
A separate review queue with one job: confirm the result is real before it leaves the lab. Sign-off is logged, immutable, and gates whether the patient ever sees the number.
- review queue with abnormal markers
- signed verification audit trail
- approval-gated patient release
- full result history
Receptionist
The first and last person every patient meets. Scheduling, consultation queue, invoicing, supplies, shift handovers, and the desk that enrols patients into their companion app.
- appointment scheduling
- consultations & queue
- invoicing & supplies
- patient portal enrolment
Real-time, by default.
In a clinic, lag is not an inconvenience — it's a hazard. AstroMED is built on a real-time spine so the right screen lights up the moment something happens, not five minutes after.
Code Blue
One tap from a nurse turns every authorized device on the network into a synchronized alarm. Audio overlay, protocol prompt, location tag — built for the seconds when everything else has to stop.
Live Lab Pipeline
A test moves from the doctor's order to the lab tech's queue, through the lab doctor's verification, to the patient's phone — without anyone re-typing anything. Cross-app, end-to-end, signed at every step.
Built-in Chat
Any authorized staff can message any other — with read receipts, online presence, and full audit logging. The hallway conversation, the WhatsApp thread, the sticky note — all in one channel that compliance can actually see.
- online / offline presence
- read receipts
- per-role unread badges
- immutable audit trail
Clinical intelligence where it matters.
AstroMED helps the clinician where the math is hard and the cost of getting it wrong is high — without ever pretending to replace clinical judgement.
Drug-interaction checks, bilingual
A prescription typed in Arabic or English is matched against the same interaction database. The system catches dangerous combinations before they reach the patient — not after the pharmacy spots them.
Reference-range aware results
Every lab result is read against gender- and age-specific normal ranges. Out-of-range values flag automatically. The lab doctor sees what needs attention first, not last.
CPOE with dose math
Dose-per-weight calculations live inside the prescribing flow. The math is the system's problem — not the clinician's.
Structured handover
Shifts close cleanly because the system tracks what was open. The next person walking in knows exactly what's mid-flight, not just what's documented.
language layer
Bilingual isn't a toggle.
Every label, every PDF, every drug name, every reference range is dual-language from day one. The Arabic side isn't an afterthought — it ships at the same time as the English side, with the same fidelity.
- UI swaps mid-session, no restart
- Every printed document renders cleanly in AR & EN with proper RTL/LTR
- Drug names matched across languages — Arabic queries find English-indexed drugs
- Bilingual prescriptions, lab reports, invoices, consent forms, sick leaves
the patient side
AstroCare. The patient's window.
Patients never touch the clinic's internal network. They get their own app, paired to AstroMED, with strict access controls and the same hardening.
- Verified-only results. A lab number reaches the patient only after the lab doctor signs it off. No half-cooked panics.
- Family scoping. Add a spouse, a child, a parent — each with their own credentials and access scope.
- Visits, prescriptions, appointments, sick leaves. Everything the patient needs to ask about, already in their pocket.
- Same bilingual experience, same private data path.
Built to survive.
A clinic system that fails once teaches you why redundancy isn't optional. AstroMED's defaults are the posture most platforms claim only after their first incident.
Certificate pinning on every binary — the app refuses to talk to anything that isn't your server.
Every byte of patient PHI sits encrypted on disk. Backups and replicas inherit the same posture.
Record access, changes, signatures — all logged with a chain of custody that operations and regulators can both read.
Access decided at the record level. Your role decides what you can see; your clinic decides whose records exist.
AstroMED ships as cert-pinned Android & Windows binaries. There is no login page on the public internet.
Your data lives on hardware you control. No cloud account anywhere is a single point of failure.
Already loaded. Already coded.
You don't start with an empty system. AstroMED comes pre-loaded with the catalogues a clinic actually uses, indexed against international standards so they speak to anything that follows.
From CBC to specialised endocrine, toxicology, immunology — with gender- and age-specific ranges baked into every result row.
Indexed against international codes, each with preparation, duration, contrast & consent metadata.
Critical pairs embedded for instant checks, with extended coverage layered on top — bilingual drug-name matching included.
Every record exportable in the international standard — so AstroMED never becomes a one-way door.
Questions, answered.
The things clinics ask us first — about the system, the data, and what it takes to run.
What is AstroMED?
AstroMED is a complete electronic health record and clinic-management system. Patients, appointments, doctor's notes, prescriptions, lab and radiology orders, pharmacy and billing all live in one secure platform that six clinical roles share in real time — replacing the stack of paper files, notebooks and disconnected spreadsheets a clinic runs on today.
Why move off paper and separate programs?
Paper gets lost, handwriting gets misread, and a patient's history is scattered across rooms. With AstroMED every order, result and note is legible, timestamped, and one search away — so nothing is duplicated, nothing is missed, and the full picture of a patient is always in front of the person treating them.
How does it help my clinic day to day?
The doctor writes an order once and it reaches the lab, pharmacy or nurse instantly — no runners, no re-typing. Reception sees the schedule fill live, the pharmacy dispenses and bills in the same step, and management finally has real numbers instead of guesswork. Less time on paperwork, fewer errors, faster patients through the door.
Is patient data safe?
Yes. Every piece of protected health information is encrypted, access is scoped to each person's role, and every single action — even opening a file — is written to a tamper-evident audit trail with the staff member's name and ID. You always know exactly who saw what, and when.
Where is the data stored — does it go abroad?
AstroMED runs on your own server, inside your own facility. Nothing is required to leave your walls, and there is no dependency on a foreign cloud. Your data stays on hardware you own and control.
Does it need the internet?
No. AstroMED works over your local network, so it keeps running through internet or power interruptions. When you want remote access or the patient app, that can be switched on — but the core system never depends on a connection you don't control.
How hard is it for my staff to learn?
The whole system is bilingual — full Arabic and English, side by side — and built around how clinics already work, not around IT jargon. We install it on your hardware, train your team on-site on their real workflow, and stay reachable after. Most roles are comfortable within the first day.
What is AstroCare?
AstroCare is the patient's window into your clinic — a mobile app where patients see their appointments, results and prescriptions, and stay connected to their care. It's the same system from the patient's side, so what your staff enter once, your patients can safely see.
Can it grow with us?
Yes. The same system runs a single clinic or a full multi-department hospital — you add roles, departments, wards and beds as you expand, without changing platforms. AstroMED is built to scale from one room to an entire facility.
Does Glytch only build medical software?
No. Glytch is an independent engineering house — we build websites, mobile and web apps, and custom software of all kinds. AstroMED and AstroCare are our flagship healthcare work, but if you need something built well, that's what we do.
