2. Medical information systems

•A Hospital information system is a
comprehensive, integrated information
system designed to manage the all aspects of
a hospital operation, such as
medical,
administrative,
financial,
legal and
the corresponding service processing.
•Traditional approaches encompass paper-based
information processing as well as resident work
position and mobile data acquisition and
presentation.

3. Hospital Information Systems

can be defined as massive, integrated systems that
support
the
comprehensive
information
requirements of hospitals, including patient, clinical,
ancillary and financial management.
•Hospitals are complex institutions with large sets of
departments and units coordinate care for patients.
•Hospitals are becoming more reliant on the ability
of hospital information system (HIS) to assist in the
diagnosis, management and education for better and
improved services and practices.
•Implementation of HIS inevitable due to many
mediating and dominating factors such as
organization, people and technology.

4. Medical information systems

•improves the quality of medical services,
•optimizes the management of various structural
health departments and
•provides a base level of access to the world of
health care.

5. Medical information systems

Expert system is a computer program that can
partially replace the specialist expert in the resolution
of the problem situation. Artificial Intelligence
researchers have started to develop ES in the 1970s.
The most important areas of application for expert
systems:
1. Diagnosis of urgent and emergency conditions
under time pressure.
2. The limited capacity of examination
3. Scanty clinical symptoms
4. The aggressive clinical behavior

6. " Electronic health record " is :

" Electronic health record " is :
• an evolving concept defined as a systematic
collection of electronic health information about
individual patients or populations.
• It is a record in digital format that is
theoretically capable of being shared across
different health care settings.
• In some cases this sharing can occur by way of
network-connected, enterprise-wide information
systems and other information networks or
exchanges.

7. " Electronic health record “

" Electronic health record “
EHRs may include a range of data, including
demographics,
medical history,
medication and
allergies,
immunization status,
laboratory test results,
radiology images,
vital signs,
personal statistics like age and weight, and
billing information.

8. " Electronic health record " :

" Electronic health record " :
• is designed to capture and re-present data
that accurately capture the state of the patient
at all times.
• It allows for an entire patient history to be
viewed without the need to track down the
patient’s previous medical record volume and
assists in ensuring data is accurate,
appropriate and legible.

9. " Electronic health record "

" Electronic health record "
• It reduces the chances of data replication as
there is only one modifiable file, which means
the file is constantly up to date when viewed
at a later date and eliminates the issue of lost
forms or paperwork.
• Due to all the information being in a single
file, it makes it much more effective when
extracting medical data for the examination
of possible trends and long term changes in
the patient

10. Comparison with paper-based records (PBR)


Comparison with paper-based records (PBR)
PBR require a significant amount of storage space
compared to digital records.
The costs of storage media, such as paper and film,
per unit of information differ dramatically from that
of electronic storage media.
When PBR are stored in different locations,
collating them to a single location for review by a
health care provider is time consuming and
complicated, whereas the process can be simplified
with electronic records.
When PBR are required in multiple locations,
copying, faxing, and transporting costs are
significant compared to duplication and transfer of
digital records.

11. The program complex “Media Manager’s Automated Workstation” is designed to:

• quick and easy selection of the treating individual
procedures (services), medical consultation;
• receiving treatment schedule (full time) for each
patient;
• receiving spreadsheet with paid admission
procedures;
• automatically receiving invitations for doctor’s
consult;
• printing a list of the schedule admission procedures
for each patient for each procedure room;
• receiving various reports.

• Telemedicine (Greek tele - distance, lat. Meder
- cure) is the branch of medicine that uses
telecommunications and electronic information
(computer) technology to provide health care at
a distance.
• The purpose of telemedicine: providing
quality health care to anyone, regardless of
location or social status.
• The subject of telemedicine: transmission
via telecommunications and computer
technologies of all types of medical information
between remote locations (medical institutions,
patients and doctors, health officials, etc.).

• Multimedia teaching-controlling system (media
teacher) is a software and hardware system, which
contains a random set of illustrated educational
information with the ability to control its study. For
the technical implementation is used as a specially
developed software and widely available Internet
technology.
