Integrating clinical information in NHS Scotland: the role of Scottish Care Information Store.

A key plank in NHS Scotland's information management and technology (IM&T) eHealth Strategy is the web-based system known as Scottish Care Information (SCI) Store, which gives primary and secondary care clinicians access to core clinical information. There is one SCI Store in each of the 15 NHS Board areas. At present all GP practices in 11 of these areas have access to SCI Stores for test results. Work is underway to augment the Stores with clinical letters and GP summary data. Strategically, SCI Store is seen as the ubiquitous element in our eHealth Strategy which will allow information to be shared across Scotland in a secure and reliable way.

The development of a VR system for the cognitive & behavioral assessment of schizophrenia.

Patients with schizophrenia have many trouble in their life due to their thinking disorders such as delusion or hallucination. It is because they have a deficit in the ability which to systematize and integrate information. Therefore, they cannot integrate or systematize properly the integrated stimuli occurring frequently in a real situation. In this study, we suggest a virtual reality system for the assessment of their ability to integrate, memorize and react to integrated stimuli. The virtual reality system we developed provided multimodal stimuli, such as visual and auditory stimuli or visuo-spatial integration, and the patients was assessed and compared their thought flexibility and working memory abilities based on multi-modal manner by making the patient experience and react to multimodal stimuli. From this study, we could conclude that the VR could provide a patient with various stimuli in an immersive environment and allow the assessment of cognitive ability, and the identification of the relationships between cognitive functions.

Issues in the design of a clinical microbiology database within an integrated hospital information system.

The LASTWORD hospital information system contains a clinical microbiology database which permits both review of patient reports and retrospective data searches using clinical and/or demographic criteria. The elements supporting this database are dictionary tables of coded phrases, a general purpose query language (Tandem ENFORM), an HL7 interface to a laboratory computer system, and long-term data storage of demographic, microbiology and other clinical data in a relational database.

Validating patient names in an integrated clinical information system.

Methods for validating patient names during the upload of clinical records are described. Exact string matching, Soundex method and a pattern matching algorithm (LCS method) are described and compared to a manual analysis of 10000 patient name pairs. In addition, the types of spelling and typographical errors that occur in patient names in the pathology database at CPMC are described. The data analysis shows that the LCS method performs better than the other techniques when compared to manual analysis.

An integrated hospital information system in Geneva.

Since the initial design phase from 1971 to 1973, the DIOGENE hospital information system at the University Hospital of Geneva has been treated as a whole and has retained its architectural unity, despite the need for modification and extension over the years. In addition to having a centralized patient database with the mechanisms for data protection and recovery of a transaction-oriented system, the DIOGENE system has a centralized pool of operators who provide support and training to the users; a separate network of remote printers that provides a telex service between the hospital buildings, offices, medical departments, and wards; and a three-component structure that avoids barriers between administrative and medical applications. In 1973, after a 2-year design period, the project was approved and funded. The DIOGENE system has led to more efficient sharing of costly resources, more rapid performance of administrative tasks, and more comprehensive collection of information about the institution and its patients.

Implementing an integrated clinical information system.

The authors examine the vital role nursing professionals have played in the successful implementation of a sophisticated computer system at a regional medical center in the midwest. From preselection analysis through training and implementation, nurses have assumed primary responsibility for managing the multifaceted adaptation and installation of a comprehensive array of patient care functions. This experience can serve as an invaluable example of the relationship between information management, patient management, cost management, and quality enhancement in the hospital setting.
