Internationally, the adoption of health information technology is increasing. However, a number issues have complicated electronic records (EHRs). In addition to issues, it becoming increasingly recognized that healthcare providers face variety usability issues. this paper, we consider approaches been taken assess both and EHRs in Canada, Denmark Finland. Although all three countries deploy surveys adoption, approach focus differs across countries. Finland, these are dedicated assessing (IT)...
Abstract The thinning and acceleration of the West Antarctic Ice Sheet has been attributed to basal melting induced by intrusions relatively warm salty water across continental shelf. A hydrographic section including lowered acoustic Doppler current profiler measurements showing such an inflow in channel leading Getz Dotson Shelves is presented here. flow rate was 0.3–0.4 Sv (1 ≡ 106 m3 s−1), subsurface heat loss estimated be 1.2–1.6 TW. Assuming that persists throughout year, it corresponds...
End user involvement and input into the design evaluation of information systems has been recognized as being a critical success factor in adoption systems. Nowhere is this need more than health Consistent with evidence from general software engineering literature, degree complex identified one most important factors or failure The participatory approach goes beyond user-centered co-operative approaches to include end users active participants ideas decision making. Proponents argue for...
Most countries face an ageing population, increasing chronic diseased, and constrictions on budget for providing health services. Involving patients in their own care by allowing them access to patient data is a trend seen many places. Data the type level of citizens have three was gathered from public sources. each individual country presented experiences Denmark, Estonia Australia are examined whilst similarities differences explored. The discussion adopts citizen-centred perspective...
To pilot benchmark measures of health information and communication technology (ICT) availability use to facilitate cross-country learning.A prior Organization for Economic Cooperation Development-led effort involving 30 countries selected defined functionality-based electronic records, exchange, personal telehealth. In this pilot, an Development Working Group compiled results 38 a subset with broad coverage using new and/or adapted country-specific or multinational surveys other sources...
Summary Objectives: Issues related to lack of system usability and potential safety hazards continue be reported in the health information technology (HIT) literature. Usability engineering methods are increasingly used ensure improved they also beginning applied more widely for ensuring HIT applications. These being design implementation many systems. In this paper we describe evidence- based approaches applying methods. Methods: A multi-phased approach healthcare is described. inspection...
The aim of this paper is to identify characteristics patients' contributions innovation in health information technology (HIT). outlines a theoretical definition patient and presents an analysis four digital prototypes 22 low-fidelity mock-ups designed by people affected the chronic illness diabetes mellitus. Seventeen families (a total 60 people) with one or more diabetic family members participated design activities four-year research project focused on support for everyday living...
As digital healthcare services are expanding in use and purpose a Danish context so the functionalities embedded these, constituting citizens' access to personal health data. In Denmark, impact of inequalities remains largely unexplored, making it crucial pay close attention this aspect as transformation sector progresses. According Health Act (2019), system is required ensure easy equal healthcare, high-quality treatment, coherent patient pathways, freedom choice, information, transparency,...
This paper identifies challenges for conducting Decentralized Clinical Trials (DCTs) in Denmark from key stakeholders’ perspectives. Challenges concern defining and disseminating DCT activities implementing recruitment strategies. For remote access to source data validating endpoints, include quality assurance transfer. IT systems capture, transfer, harmonization, backup. are concerned with over/under-reporting when reporting side effects. Documentation safety occur Investigational Medical...
In this research project, a group of heart patients were transferred from traditional hospital settings to home hospitalisation across sectors. The project involved with failure and arrhythmia.The aim was understand the experiences attitudes their spouses/partners regard application telehomecare technology as an option within hospitalisation.A phenomenological hermeneutic approach used collect interpret findings data. A triangulation data collection techniques applied using participation...
Experience has shown that for new health-information-technology (HIT) to be suc-cessful clinicians must obtain positive clinical benefits as a result of its implementation and joint-ownership the decisions made during development process. A prerequisite achieving both success criteria is real end-user-participation. also further research into developing improved methods collect more detailed information on social groups participating in HIT needed order support, facilitate improve end-user...
Summary A wide range of human factors approaches have been developed and adapted to healthcare for detecting mitigating negative unexpected consequences associated with technology in (i.e. technology-induced errors). However, greater knowledge wider dissemination methods is needed ensure more usable safer health information (IT) systems. Objective: This paper reports on work done by the IMIA Human Factors Working Group discusses some successful that applied using mitigate unintended IT. The...
Reusable machine-processable clinical decision support system (CDSS) rules have not been widely achieved in the medical informatics field. This study introduces process, results, challenges faced, and lessons learned while converting Centers for Disease Control Prevention (CDC)-recommended immunization schedules (2022) to CDSS rules. The presents our experience vaccination into tabular, charts, MS Excel, quality language (CQL) formats. CQL format can be automatically converted using existing...
In this paper, we present an active learning framework designed to enhance the automatic identification of key phrases relevant a Clinical Decision Support System (CDSS) ontology. CDSS ontology can play critical role in standardizing medical vocabulary and enabling seamless data integration across healthcare systems. Traditional methods for development are manual, labor-intensive, require significant domain expertise. Our approach combines Named Entity Recognition (NER) component based on...
Background: Reusable, machine-processable clinical decision support system (CDSS) rules have not been widely achieved in the medical informatics field. This study introduces process, results, challenges faced, and lessons learned while converting United States of America Centers for Disease Control Prevention (CDC)-recommended immunization schedules (2022) to CDSS rules. Methods: We converted vaccination into tabular, charts, MS Excel, quality language (CQL) formats. The CQL format can be...
We conducted an online survey and structured interviews with a convenience sample of primary care providers in the USA to identify requirements related clinical decision support systems (CDSS) settings.
