Abstract

In this paper the historical background of the concepts Hospital Information System, Radiology Information System, and Picture Archiving and Communication System (HIS, RIS, PACS) is presented. Next the present situation of the realization of the concepts is considered; the conceptual relation between the three is discussed. Accepting the existence of the three concepts, first the relation between HIS and RIS is analysed, next the relation between PACS and HIS/RIS is considered. It is concluded that such a relation is vital for the realization of a full-scale PACS. Moreover, it is concluded that not only data has to be exchanged but also information. The need for a generic description of an interface between the two is emphasized.

A clinical management system for patient participatory health care support. Assuring the patients' rights and confirming operation of clinical treatment and hospital administration.

We conducted a drastic change in our hospital information system to support patient participatory health care provided in the New Hiroshima University Hospital (HUH). The new information system in HUH (HU-MIND II-Hiroshima University Hospital Medical Intelligence and Notice Delivery system II) is designed as "clinical management system" (CMS). The core of this CMS is the electronic health record (EHR), which aims to assure both the patients' right to know, and the attendants' accountability. It is evident that the team practice including patients requires close communication. Data in the EHR are written not only by physicians, but also by all coworkers, which will enable them to realize the team communication and the ordering in a reliable way and to leave the evidence of conducted practices. Moreover, the bedside information systems were set-up at all 700 beds. Patients can access their anamnesis and future clinical care procedures themselves. Based on the demand outlined above, the new regulations of HUH are composed of 21 requirements, conditions of information collection, accumulation and use. Our focus was how to make patients' right compatible with attendants' accountability. As the data owners, patients have the facility to access their own data at their bedsides. They can view their own health condition and treatment program and can control the data flow.
