This paper presents an investigation into the use of process modeling to decibels complex processes in the healthcare sector, with reference to the process of Surgery and Registration in China. We argue that process models are generally useful as a means for understanding, analyzing and improving complex health processes. Also, we show that using these models it is possible to discover process bottlenecks...
High quality information has a significant impact on improving operation performance and patient satisfaction, as well as resolving patient disputes. Based on the analysis of the perioperative process, information quality is considered as an important contributory factor in improving patient throughput. In this paper, we propose a conceptual framework to use computer simulations in modeling information...
In this paper we investigate the application of IEEE 802.16-based broadband wireless access (BWA) technology to e-health system for rural areas. A qualitative comparison between third-generation wireless systems and the WiMAX technology is given. A survey on telemedicine services using traditional wireless systems is presented. The advantages of using WiMAX technology over traditional wireless systems,...
Wearable computer system (WCS) has the capacity to provide services for patients and healthcare professionals regardless of time or place. Researcher in information systems domain agreed that use of wearable system in hospital could improve quality of care, cost reduction, error reductions, and better information quality. Awareness and use of information communication technologies (ICT) are on the...
Operating rooms are regarded as the most costly hospital facilities. Due to rising costs and risks, it is necessary to optimize performance of the operating rooms. High quality information has a significant effect on improving process performance and patient satisfaction, as well as resolving patient disputes. Based on the analysis of the operation process, information quality (IQ) is considered as...
Among various technological developments, the use of wireless systems is emerging rapidly in the developing and industrialized economies. Medical is no exception to this phenomenon, whereas individuals are trying to save lives instead of making profit in hospital. Researcher in information systems domain agreed that use of wireless portable system in hospital could improve quality of care, cost reduction,...
Hospitals are looking ways for providing quality services to its customers by reducing cost, increasing efficiency and by improving hospital processes. Under this situation, using processes modeling technique will be a new dimension and will be providing health care staffs a platform for the assessment of information quality situation, in the various processes of the hospital, processes management...
In this paper, on the base of the evaluation systems of the information quality at home and abroad, we propose a new medical process-oriented Information quality evaluation system. The number of the existing information quality indicators is up to 70. Based on the different medical scenes, with a particular choice, we intend to put forward the certain indicators suitable for medical field dimensions;...
