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:

Background and aim: Hospitals in the developed world are increasingly adopting digital systems such as electronic health records (EHRs) for all kinds of documentation. This move means that traditional paper case notes and nursing records are often documented in EHRs. Documentation of vital signs is important for monitoring a patient's physiological condition and how vital signs are presented in a clinical record can have a profound impact on the ability of clinicians to recognise changes, such as deterioration in a patient's condition. Vital signs have received minimal attention with regard to

Abstract:

Background: Improving current and future healthcare is heavily reliant on continuous research and the secondary use of data from patients' medical records, particularly from electronic records. Considerable amounts of data are collected during the care and treatment of a patient, and this data can offer many opportunities, not only for supporting and improving individual patient care or making important contributions to research, but also for investigating causes of diseases, establishing the prevalence of risk factors, and identifying populations at risk of adverse outcomes.

Abstract:

England has recently introduced a nationwide electronic personal health record (ePHR) called Patient Online. Although ePHRs are widely available, adoption rates of ePHRs are usually low. Understanding the factors affecting patients’ use of ePHRs is considered important to increase adoption rates and improve the implementation success of ePHRs. Therefore, the current study aims to examine the factors that affect patients’ adoption of ePHRs in England. A systematic review was conducted to identify factors that affect patients’ adoption of ePHRs. Then, the most common theories and models relevant

Personal Health Records (PHRs) allow patients to access and in some cases manage their own health records. Their potential benefits include access to health information, enhanced asynchronous communication between patients and clinicians, and convenience of online appointment scheduling and prescription refills. Potential barriers to PHR use include lack of computer and internet access, poor computer or health literacy, security concerns, and provider disengagement. PHRs may help those living in rural areas and those with chronic conditions such as heart failure, monitor and manage their disea

In the United States, the adoption rate of electronic health record systems significantly increased after "Meaningful Use" incentive program was started in 2009. While increased use of electronic health record systems could improve the efficiency and quality of healthcare services, it can also lead to a number of security and privacy issues, such as identity theft and healthcare fraud. Such incidents could have negative impact on trustworthiness of electronic health record technology

In November 2012 Uppsala County Council (UCC) introduced an eHealth service, ‘My Health Record’, that gives all inhabitants over age 18 in Uppsala County access to their health records online. However, this service has not been evaluated before this study. We conducted an interview study, based on User Experience (UX) and Patient empowerment, with users of ‘My Health Record’ to get their opinions, and to see if and how the service can be improved. Our findings shows that the users are positive to the service and the aspects that can be improved mostly concern information and communication. Bas

Abstract:

A través dels anys els sistemes d’informació mèdica (SIM) s’han desenvolupat i desplegat, seguint agendes específiques abordant els problemes individuals. Encara que hi ha hagut diversos esforços, encara és necessari millorar la integració de sistemes per tal de superar les barreres de disponibilitat de les dades, sobretot quan l’status quo revela que la majoria de les vegades els sistemes coexisteixen com autistes. L’assoliment d’una visió integrada i transversal de tots els registres d’un pacient no és una tasca fàcil, ja que els patrons de producció i la utilització de les dades en

Abstract:

There is a national movement to create improvements in patient safety and outcomes due to evolutionary changes in the healthcare. Many health care organizations are using the framework of a culture of safety in order to create a reliable and stable work environment that emphasizes safety and improves patient outcomes. Patient throughput, defined as the active management of the supply of patient beds (rooms for occupation) to the demand of patients to beds and the length of time it takes for this action to occur, has been identified as one of the areas in need of improvement.
