epiCentre will work on a Windows machine running Windows Vista or newer. It also requires .NET Framework 4.6. While not required, it is also recommended that all computers running epiCentre also have Outlook, Word, Excel, and a PDF reader in order to fully utilise all of epiCentre's features. Citrix setups, or similar, are also compatible with epiCentre.
Any version of SQL Server from 2008R2 (express, full, or Azure) onwards can be used for the database.
Installation size and data storage requirements
Using 2.2.5 of epiCentre as a measure epiCentre takes up about ~145MB on a computer.
See the below table for estimated database sizing:
| Table | Estimated records (per patient) | Size (KB per record) | Total size (KB per patient) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Patient | 1 | .23 | .23 |
| Episode | 3 | .16 | .48 |
| Pathway | 9 (3 per episode) | .08 | .72 |
| Service Event | 30 (10 per episode) | .08 | 2.4 |
Questionnaire | 15 (5 per episode) | .76 | 11.4 |
| Total | 15.23KB per patient |
If we assume a system of 1000 patients, that's ~15MB, not including any overhead involved in SQL creation, not the relatively static tables within epiCentre (code sets, users, facility information, etc).
