Abstract:
A need for improvement in nursing education regarding inpatient workflows and informatics skills was identified at this project site. Upon hire, nurses were required to complete a 4-hour basic class on the electronic health record (EHR) system, but this class did not include inpatient-nursing workflows needed to provide and facilitate care for patients. This project addressed the lack of EHR education on inpatient nursing workflows. The focus of this staff education project was an education class on inpatient nursing workflow provided to a nurse residency class. Sources of evidence were obtain

Abstract:
Many countries (especially developing countries) are plagued with critical healthcare issues such as chronic, infectious and pandemic diseases, a lack of basic healthcare programmes and facilities and a shortage of skilled healthcare workers. E-Health (healthcare based on the Internet technologies) promises to overcome some problems related to the reach of healthcare in remote communities. Electronic Health Record (EHR) (consisting of all diagnostic information related to a patient) forms the core of any E-Health system. Hence the success of an E-Health system is very much dependent on the suc

Abstract:
Electronic Health Record (EHR) is an umbrella term encompassing demographics and health information of a patient from many different sources in a digital format. Deep learning has been used on EHRs in many successful studies and there is great potential in future implementations. In this study, diagnosis classification of EHRs with Multi-layer Perceptron models are studied. Two MLPs with different architectures are constructed and run on both a modified version of the EHR dataset and the raw data. A Random Forest is used as baseline for comparison. The MLPs are not successful in beating the ba

Abstract:
The use of Electronic Health Records (EHR) for reporting patient data has been widely adopted by healthcare providers. This data can encompass many forms of medical information such as disease symptoms, results from laboratory tests, ICD-10 classes and other information from patients. Structured EHR data is often high-dimensional and contain many missing values, which impose a complication to many computing problems. Detecting meaningful structures in EHR data could provide meaningful insights in diagnose detection and in development of medical decision support systems. In this work, a subset

Abstract:
On the 26th of May 2021 the new regulation for medical devices, MDR 2017/745, will come into force. The underlying incentives to go from the medical device directive (MDD 93/42/EEC) to MDR are a series of adverse events involving medical devices. The main goal of MDR is to strengthen and improve the already existing legislation and thus will entail large changes for manufactures, one of them being manufacturers of Electronic Health Record (EHR) systems. For medical software, such as EHR systems, the new regulation will imply an upgrade in risk classification. This upgrade will bring additional

Abstract:
<p>I dagens samhälle är det vanligt att patienter söker vård hos olika vårdgivare, vilket resulterar i att vårdinformationen blir splittrad och allt högre krav ställs på de datoriserade journalsystemen. Till exempel ska de stödja ett processorienterat arbetssätt för att samla information från samma vårdprocess. Vårdinformationen måste därför vara tillgänglig över organisationsgränser och olika journalsystem måste kunna kommunicera med varandra, där en ökad tillgänglighet ställer högre krav på informationssäkerhet och behörighetskontroll. Journalsystemen bör, för att uppfylla dessa krav, utveck

[EN] Healthcare domain produces and consumes big quantities of people's health data. Although data exchange is the norm rather than the exception, being able to access to all patient data is still far from achieved. Current developments such as personal health records will introduce even more data and complexity to the Electronic Health Records (EHR). Achieving semantic interoperability is one of the biggest challenges to overcome in order to benefit from all the information contained in the distributed EHR. This requires that the semantics of the information can be understood by all involved

Health and sociological indicators confirm that life expectancy is increasing, and so, the years that patients have to live with chronic diseases and co-morbidities. Type 2 Diabetes is one of the most common chronic diseases, specially linked to overweight and ages over sixty. As a metabolic disease, Type 2 Diabetes affects multiple organs by causing damage in blood vessels and nervous system at micro and macro scale. Mortality of subjects with diabetes is three times higher than the mortality for subjects with other chronic diseases. On the one hand, the management of diabetes is focused on

The European health care is facing challenges with an increasing ageing population, with a higher frequency of chronic diseases, which have resulted in rising health care costs. Meanwhile, the trend shows how patients and citizens are becoming more active in their personal health care, with the number of existing doctors and nurses subsiding furthermore entailing problems. The area of eHealth, which involves information and communication technologies with health care, is hence seen as a partial long-term solution and is considered being a rapidly growing market both in Sweden, but also in Euro

In addition, numerous reports to Swedish HSAN (Medical Responsibility Board) have shown a high rate of information and communication deficiencies in Healthcare has a direct or indirect cause of incidents, injuries and deaths.

Abstract:
Background Adverse drug events (ADE) are leading cause of death. Current pharmacosurveillance methods rely on passive reporting to monitor drug safety, but this is slow and many ADEs are unreported. Moreover, physicians regularly prescribe drugs for indications for which they were never tested (off-label use), despite some highly-publicized associations with ADEs. We urgently need timely pharmacosurveillance methods to monitor drug safety and effectiveness for on- and off-label uses. Electronic health records (EHR) may help fill this void if they document the reasons for drug prescription (tre

An empirical investigation of the security flaws and features of an in-use modern electronic health record system is performed. The investigation was carried out using dynamic analysis, manual testing and interviews with developers. The results indicate that in-use electronic health record systems suffer from serious authentication flaws, arising from the interaction of many different proprietary systems. The authentication problems are so severe that gaining access to any user’s computer on the hospital intranet would compromise a large database of patient medical records, including radiologi
