Version 3.3 includes Boger Bönninghausen’s Characteristics and Repertory (BBCR) from 1905 and the Miasmatic Pocketbook 2011.
We have also decided to make jRep-Web available to all customers free of charge.
Inspired by the book âHomöopathische Fallanalyseâ (Homeopathic Case Analysis) by Gerhard Bleul (whose
A-F courses I attended at the time), I have implemented Jan Scholten’s periodic table as a module.
I have also incorporated Heiner Frei’s new questionnaires â
in addition to the old ones on which the cases in his old books are based.
Thanks to Roland Kauke’s collaboration, jRep now includes G.H.G. Jahr’s comprehensive symptom codex, in which Jahr’s annotations have been highlighted in colour, making it immediately apparent which symptoms have been verified and which have only been clinically observed.
I have been asked about this repeatedly for a long time, and now it’s finally here:
Phatak’s Repertory and Materia Medica are on board!
Stephan has massively accelerated the search once again, so that larger repertories are now also possible.
For version 3.2, Stephan developed a form module, and Heiner Frei allowed me to use it to implement his questionnaires.
This allows you or your patients to fill out his questionnaires on the computer with a click of the mouse, and jRep generates the corresponding evaluation for you!
Imagine a patient calls you and briefly describes the issue.
Meanwhile, you call up the patient in jRep and select a suitable questionnaire, which you can fill out together with the patient on the phone.
You no longer need to take notes or think about what else you could ask.
Instead, you simply click on the appropriate symptoms.
Then you open the evaluation generated by the form and apply Heiner Frei’s optimised polarity analysis…
In the course of this, I converted the Therapeutic Pocketbook into a hierarchical file and added relevant additions from Dunham’s BBCR to optimise the polarity analysis, marked accordingly â with jRep, this is no problem at all đ
While I was at it, I also generated a synthetic materia medica of the Genius symptoms from the pocketbook.
And then, thanks to the energetic support of Dorothea Dittmann, Sigrid Klingenstein, Michaela Kieffer and Vera WĂŒst, I have finally implemented the repertorial part of Boger’s Synoptic Key â separated into the 1st and 3rd (supplementary) parts.
The SK Materia Medica was linked together in the process, as was the Bhanja Masterkey.
For a long time, I have wanted to be able to quickly repertorise a few symptoms without first having to use a full-fledged computer and boot it up. As a user of various pocket computers, I had in mind a small repertorisation programme that would also run on such a device.
When I learned about the Bönninghausen method during the three-month course in Augsburg in 2005, I found a suitable basis for this in the âTherapeutic Pocketbook of 1846â. However, the programme should also allow me to expand this ingenious approach, e.g. with additional remedies, rubrics and notes.
So that the same programme could be used on different devices, I thought early on about a cross-platform Java programme â but I soon received the well-intentioned advice not to try to programme this myself, as Java is a complex programming language that needs to be mastered.
So I set out to find a programmer who would be willing to fulfil my wish. At the beginning of 2006, I came across a description of pDict, a foreign language dictionary that runs on Java, on an early German-language smartphone homepage. It seemed to me to be the right programme for my project, allowing me to look up symptoms instead of foreign words. All it needed to do was be able to take over categories and calculate…
I wrote something similar in an email to the author of the programme on 12 January 2006 and found in Stephan RĂ€ss a gifted programmer who not only implemented my ideas within a very short time, but also contributed numerous ideas of his own â initially without any prospect of adequate remuneration. Thanks to him, what started out as a small tool for use on the go has now become a very powerful repertorisation programme with a multitude of innovations.
In addition to him, my (and hopefully also your) thanks go to our families, whose understanding, patience and forbearance made this project possible in the first place.
After the release of version 1.0 in April 2006, Bernd von der Lieth from Hamburg approached me (many thanks to Michael Teut) to contribute his homeopathic works to jRep. [Now published by Jens Ahlbrecht’s Ahlbrecht-Verlag.] This makes jRep the first homeopathy programme to include not only Bönninghausen’s âTherapeutic Pocketbookâ but also his expanded Materia Medica, which is âintended to be used in conjunction with my repertoriesâ.
One year later, just in time for Hahnemann’s 252nd birthday, I was proud to finally present version 2.0, which Stephan had completely reprogrammed since early 2007 and which included a variety of new modules and features, such as table evaluation, rubric comparisons, polarity analysis, a print function, and much more.
At the inspiring Boger Symposium in Karlsruhe in 2007, I was delighted to release version 2.1, which, in addition to numerous minor improvements and the comparative rubric search, included new modules such as Boger’s âRemedies for Tonsillitis etc.â and Hahnemann’s Organon paragraphs from the 6th edition.
We then implemented a number of customer requests and an improvement to the polarity analysis according to Dr Heiner Frei with sorting by
- Completeness of symptoms,
- Exclusion of contraindications and
- Sum of polarity differences
this takes you straight to the decisive final results! (All of his sample cases can also be solved with the 1846 edition of the Therapeutic Pocketbook, which is included in iRep đ Then Stephan surprised me with the search function in the additional Materia Medica window, and my WĂŒrzburg teacher, Dr. Joachim StĂŒrmer, provided me with his new ingenious âminimal materia medicaâ as an additional module. All these innovations led to the release of version 2.2.
Then I moved to Rottenburg because I had been working as a homeopathic doctor at the Hahnemann Clinic since 2007. And Stephan once again programmed at an incredible speed, making many improvements and creating an editor that now makes it very easy to change and add to existing rubrics and even create new ones! In 2008, I finally made it and visited Stephan in beautiful Bern (see picture above). I was a little nervous, as we had only been in contact by email since January 2006! But we and our families got along really well đ And then I visited Mrs Flury and discussed with her how her late husband’s practical repertory could be implemented. All in all, we had a great short holiday on the Aare (the river that flows through Bern).
Gienow’s miasmatic model already inspired me during my training with Ansgar Schimmöller in Bayreuth. In 2006, I met Peter Gienow and his wife Gertie at a seminar in Detmold. He was immediately enthusiastic about jRep, partly because it is one of the few homeopathy programmes that runs on Linux, and gave me the file of his Miasmatic Pocketbook (based on the works of Bönninghausen and Boger) for conversion into a programme module. Nevertheless, it took four gruelling attempts (every time I was almost finished with the conversion, a new edition appeared…) before it was finally completed in 2009. Stephan programmed a hierarchical search function and integrated a convenient editor to make it easy to design your own materia medica files.
At the end of 2009, Jens Ahlbrecht and Peter Busch introduced me to the works of G.H.G. Jahr, which are now gradually being integrated into the programme. Thanks to the tireless digitisation work of Gaby Schmidt, we are now able to present the Handbook of Principal Indications, which Hahnemann praises in his footnote to §153. In addition to many improvements, Stephan has programmed a small patient management system.
