Clinical Document Architecture (CDA) is an XML-based clinical document standard designed to ensure data exchange as well as semantic interoperability of healthcare information systems. Continuity care of documents (CCD), a template derived from CDA, is designed with the goal of displaying patient records more intuitively for clinicians, especially for when the patient has a long history of medical...
Successful deployment of Electronic Health Record helps improve patient safety and quality of care, but it has the prerequisite of interoperability between Health Information Exchange at different hospitals. The Clinical Document Architecture (CDA) developed by HL7 is a core document standard to ensure such interoperability, and propagation of this document format is critical for interoperability...
A Health Mobile Application (App) has enabled users to access personal health record at any time and place. As an App provides health service to users, it is crucial for an App to be accessible to every user. However, it is often an App does not provide proper visual aid for users who are visually impaired. We restrict the range of visually impaired to retinitis pigmentosa (RP) patients in this paper...
A health management service is to measure, record, and manage the vital signs of users. The information technology field is always evolving, allowing many medical treatment services including up-to-date information technologies to be provided in the medical field. In the near future, services using Smart TVs, Smart watches, and Smart glasses will be developed. However, applying new devices to a legacy...
Due to the recent development of IT technology, the capacity of data has surpassed the Zetta-byte, and improving the efficiency of business by increasing the predictive ability through an efficient analysis on t hese d ata has e merged a s a n issue of the current society. Even each general hospital is getting a large amount of information stored and managed. However, there are very few studies on...
In modern society, aging and chronic disease is becoming common phenomenon due to the increasing numbers of elderly patients. To best treat this growing segment of the population, medical care should be based on constant vital sign monitoring. In this study, we propose a mobile vital sign measurement and data collection system for chronic disease management‥ And we implemented a middle ware using...
Mobile Health (MH) is a hot topic in the health IT industry because it can make a big difference in healthcare services. However, before adopting Mobile Health technology, we must ensure that it provides safe and reliable services to users and it should also meet authoritative requirements. In US, Meaningful Use (MU) is widely used to evaluate Electronic Health Record (EHR) systems service quality...
Increase in healthcare awareness has raised the number of subscriptions for e-Healthcare applications. Consequently e-Healthcare application providers are adopting Cloud computing to handle immense processing load and to reduce service delivery cost. Identity management has been an issue which hinders in adoption of e-Healthcare applications, due to sensitivity of the data involved in it. Existing...
Nowadays, the need for effective integrated health information management is very high, with which each individual can monitor his/her health status and the ever increasing healthcare cost can be significantly reduced therefore. Moreover, advancements in information, communication and sensor technology have made readily available many types of highly accurate yet affordable PHDs (Personal Health Devices)...
Semantic interoperability is currently one of the most challenging topics in health information area. Context agreement between physicians is needed in case that a patient has to consult a variety of physicians for the treatment of one medical problem. To support semantic interoperability, identical syntactic representation is also considered. This study solves the semantic interoperability problem...
