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 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
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

A Continuum of Interfaces to Engage Surgical Staff in Efficient CollaborationJournal of Medical Systems - Tập 43 - Trang 1-9 - 2019
Juliette Rambourg, Hélène Gaspard-Boulinc, Stéphane Conversy, Marc Garbey
Large hospital surgical suites must combine high quality of care with an efficient management of operations. However, the diversity of procedures, staff, and patients present important challenges for staff collaboration. The complexity of flows between tasks and places, such as interconnections between pre-operation, post-operation and intensive care units, led previous research to address these i...... hiện toàn bộ
SIMEDIS: a Discrete-Event Simulation Model for Testing Responses to Mass Casualty IncidentsJournal of Medical Systems - Tập 40 - Trang 1-15 - 2016
Michel Debacker, Filip Van Utterbeeck, Christophe Ullrich, Erwin Dhondt, Ives Hubloue
It is recognized that the study of the disaster medical response (DMR) is a relatively new field. To date, there is no evidence-based literature that clearly defines the best medical response principles, concepts, structures and processes in a disaster setting. Much of what is known about the DMR results from descriptive studies and expert opinion. No experimental studies regarding the effects of ...... hiện toàn bộ
