Celiac disease is a genetically determined disorder of the small intestine, occurring due to an immune response to ingested gluten-containing food. The resulting damage to the small intestinal mucosa hampers nutrient absorption, and is characterized by diarrhea, abdominal pain, and a variety of extra-intestinal manifestations. Invasive and costly methods such as endoscopic biopsy are currently use...... hiện toàn bộ
Generalized Blind Delayed Source Separation Model for Online Non-invasive Twin-fetal Sound Separation: A Phantom StudyJournal of Medical Systems - Tập 32 - Trang 123-135 - 2007
Vivek Nigam, Roland Priemer
The fetal phonocardiogram, which is the acoustic recording of mechanical activity of the fetal heart, facilitates the measurement of the instantaneous fetal heart rate, beat-to-beat differences and duration of systolic and diastolic phases. These measures are sensitive indicators of cardiac function, reflecting fetal well-being. This paper provides an algorithm to non-invasively estimate the phono...... hiện toàn bộ
Assessing healthcare service quality using routinely collected data: Linking information systems in emergency careJournal of Medical Systems - Tập 44 - Trang 1-9 - 2020
Harald Dormann, Patrick Andreas Eder, Henner Gimpel, Oliver Meindl, Asarnusch Rashid, Christian Regal
Emergency departments need to continuously calculate quality indicators in order to perform structural improvements, improvements in the daily routine, and ad-hoc improvements in everyday life. However, many different actors across multiple disciplines collaborate to provide emergency care. Hence, patient-related data is stored in several information systems, which in turn makes the calculation of...... hiện toàn bộ
A prototype generalized network technology for hospitalsJournal of Medical Systems - Tập 6 - Trang 359-375 - 1982
S. G. Tolchin, R. L. Stewart, S. A. Kahn, E. S. Bergan, G. P. Gafke, D. W. Simborg, M. G. Chadwick, Q. E. Whiting-O'Keefe
A demonstration implementation of a distributed data-processing hospital information system using an intelligent local area communications network (LACN) technology is described. This system is operational at the UCSF Medical Center and integrates four heterogeneous, stand-alone minicomputers. The applications systems are PID/Registration, Outpatient Pharmacy, Clinical Laboratory, and Radiology/Me...... hiện toàn bộ
An Investigation of Pharmacists’ Acceptance of NHI-PharmaCloud in TaiwanJournal of Medical Systems - Tập 42 - Trang 1-11 - 2018
Ching-Chang Lee, Meng-Chi Liu
Taiwan’s National Health Insurance (NHI) is one of the most successful insurance programs in the world. The National Health Insurance Administration (NHIA) established the NHI-PharmaCloud as a platform to reduce medication duplication and other medication errors among the NHI-contracted facilities. The NHI-PharmaCloud can help pharmacists access patient medication information from the preceding 3 ...... hiện toàn bộ
NMR zeugmatographic imaging in medicineJournal of Medical Systems - Tập 6 - Trang 591-597 - 1982
Paul C. Lauterbur
The history of the application of nuclear magnetic resonance techniques to biology and medicine is outlined, and the fundamental principles and certain techniques of nuclear magnetic resonance zeugmatographic imaging are described, with emphasis on true three-dimensional reconstruction methods.
Clinical Study of Diffusion-Weighted Imaging in the Diagnosis of Liver Focal LesionJournal of Medical Systems - Tập 43 - Trang 1-7 - 2019
Jiapeng Li, Yue Yang
Apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC), derived from diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance images (DW-MRI), measures the motion of water molecules in vivo and can be used to quantify tumor response so as to determine the best therapy approach. In this paper, our goal was to determine whether the DW-MRI can be used for qualitative and quantitative liver cancer analysis, where an automated method will...... hiện toàn bộ
