Electronic medical record (EMR) system has become increasingly more important in developed countries due to its convenience and efficiency in medical information storage, management and analysis. However, one of the main limitations of EMR lies in that the clinical data for patients cannot be exchanged among different medical institutions. Recently, the cloud-based clinic system, featuring in lower...
A brief description of the software ecosystem of the electronic clinical record in the National Health System in Mexico is presented from a point of view of the organizational, business and software structure. According to the characteristics identified and considering the traits presented in Mexico, we propose actions to strengthen the ecosystem. An architecture is proposed in which the electronic...
In recent years, the interoperability, exchange, privacy, and security of electronic medical records (EMR) across healthcare institution has become an important international issue within medical informatics. Currently Taiwan's electronic medical records exchange center (EEC) system lacks a mechanism for patients to consent to releasing only portions of their EMR. Currently patients must consent to...
Medical Reports are amongst the most intensive and diverse processes in a Hospital Management Information System. In this paper, we propose an efficient and end-to-end framework for generating investigation test reports. The framework involves a novel template designer for result entry, an structured format for storing result entry template and data into XML suitable for lab reports and Electronic...
In recent years, sharing electronic medical records (EMRs) for more researchers outside the associated institutions is significant. For privacy preservation of the corresponding patients and the associated institutions, a de-identification task on the EMRs to be shared is a must. Although the deidentification task has been considered with positive research outcomes worldwide, especially those from...
This poster presents an innovative user-support method for structured data entry that resulted from working with a large patient registry reporting group in a leading hospital, tasked with efficient electronic medical record discretization. It is a method of using syntactic constraints on various fields during web-forms coding, to auto-select the fields where values belong, this allows coders to spend...
In Venezuela and other countries where it coexists public health system and a private one, we find a variety of organizations that present health services. Even though we have a strong public system, we often find that each health center uses different Electronic Medical Record systems, hindering data sharing for improved patient care. One of the strongest challenges for the integration of all databases...
Efficiency of the organization of psychiatric care increases when usage of information technologies intensifies, and interaction of various institutions providing psychiatric care improves. Development and improvement of electronic forms of medical documentation, automation of the psychiatrist's workplace, data transmission using protected information channels provide continuity in mental health care...
This research addresses the implementation of encryption and digital signature technique for electronic health record to prevent cybercrime problem such as robbery, modification and unauthorized access. In this research, RSA 2048-bit algorithm, AES 256-bit and SHA 256 will be implemented in Java programming. Secure Electronic Health Record Information (SEHR) application design is intended to combine...
The general state of healthcare in Zambia is poor and this can be attributed to a number of reasons. One of these is the suboptimal management of patient data and information for decision-making. This research paper focuses on the comparison of the performance of the paper-based patient record management systems and the Patient e-Files Online Health Record Management System (OHRMS). The performance...
Entity-attribute-value (EAV) tables are widely used to store data in electronic medical records and clinical study data management systems. Before they can be used by various analytical (e.g., data mining and machine learning) programs, EAV-modeled data usually must be transformed into conventional relational table format through pivot operations. This time-consuming and resource-intensive process...
Patient misidentification has been identified as a primary cause of electronic medical record (EMR) related patient harm. One potential function at which such errors can occur is the user interface, during patient look-up. In this study we apply a within participant randomized control trial (RCT) simulation to assess the impact of a variety of inexact matching techniques on the rate of patient misidentification...
We developed a real-time, visual analytics tool for clinical decision support. The system expands the "recall of past experience" approach that a provider (physician) uses to formulate a course of action for a given patient. By utilizing Big-Data techniques, we enable the provider to recall all similar patients from an institution's electronic medical record (EMR) repository, to explore...

Hospital intensive care unit (ICU) bedside devices and electronic medical record (EMR) technology do not yet adequately address the visualization of patient data in the context of cognitive overload and its impact on patient safety. We respond to these challenges through the design of a novel visualization dashboard for use in the ICU: MIVA 2.0 (Medical Information Visualization Assistant, v.2). MIVA...
We have developed a mobile nursing app (mNurse) applying to the records of the wound status and drug administration in a regional hospital located in Taiwan since September of 2014. A total of 60 nurses participated in this study. It integrates the functions of identification, taking photos and integration with the Electronic Medical Records (EMR), Nurse Information system (NIS) and Picture Archiving...
It is a widely accepted fact that there is much tacit knowledge being used in daily medical practice, which remains to be unknown knowns, or inexpressible known knowns. On the other hand, health information systems developers are determined to make clinical information standardized, exchangeable, and machine-understandable to certain extent. This paper reports our experience in developing an applied...
There has been a tremendous growth in health data collection since the development of Electronic Medical Record (EMR) systems. Such collected data is further shared and analyzed for diverse purposes. Despite many benefits, data collection and sharing have become a big concern as it threatens individual privacy. In this paper, we propose a secure and private data management framework that addresses...
This research used a text data mining technique to extract useful information from text data within Electronic Medical Records. Although text data provide a complete account of a patient's information, they are not being fully utilized. Such relevant information as laboratory results and remarks made by doctors and nurses is not always considered. Knowledge concerning the condition and treatment of...
With the increasing applications of electronic medical record systems, many hospitals have accumulated rich clinic data in format of distribution and heterogeneity. It is difficult for historic electronic medical records to be integrated from different data resources to build an overall personal electronic healthcare record (EHR) for a doctor to assess the health condition of a patient. In order to...
