hello everyone,

I want to add dummy patients data (in bulk, like some thousand records) for research purposes to openEMR. I am new to openEMR and using it as an end-user, not having much idea about its implementation.

Can anyone please guide me if there is some script available or some plugin or sample dummy data backups etc. which I may use? Or the only option left is looking into its code and write my own script?

WIKI pages are a great source of information about OpenEMR.

Yes it is available, but you have to do a search. It is not my specialty. I work with real data, sorry.

Hello

There is a example script available in OpenEMR in the file ‘sql/example_patient_data.sql’, which you can run in the browser. But this has only 14 sample data, you can refer this to include as much sample data you need.

Thanks

Use the sample of 14 clients to create thousands of clients. Just keep adding data day by day and after adding more data for new clients make your own backup and SQL script to import the new total amount of Clients.

Use the PrintaPatient tool from Art Eaton to generate any number of random patients for your project.

It would be very cool to have a PHP tool where you can generate random patients and encounter data from a few fields filled in on a form. A big help for that would be lists of common diagnoses, drugs and procedures for different practice types.
