Graduate education in health decision support systems (HDSSs): reconfiguring the health information system (HIS) basket or putting HDSS Humpty Dumpty together again?

Building on previous discussions in graduate health information system (HIS) education, this article focuses on the design of a course in health decision support systems (HDSSs). The goal here is not simply to add to existing prospectives of HIS theories and methodologies, but to prepare these students for changing trends in HIS technologies and applications and for new challenges in HIS administration and impacts arising from these emerging, more advanced, and complex technologies. Specifically, advancing HDSS technology: (1) promises to close the gap between theory and practice, (2) creates a new perspective for the application of information technologies in health care organizations, and (3) enhances innovations in the management and implementation of health information technologies. This paper highlights the need for graduate education in HDSS domain knowledge and how such knowledge can be taught in preparing students for managing change in the future health care environment.

User needs and demands of a computer-based patient record.

Prior to the implementation of a computer-based patient record, it is necessary to outline the requirements of the medical personnel. The paper is an account of a survey on information needs and demands on computer-based patient records. The study was conducted among physicians, nursing staff and therapists in two Dutch hospitals. In order to conduct the study, a measuring-instrument in form of a questionnaire was developed. Based on the results, it may be concluded, that health service staff does not only require improved input- and consultation uses with regard to the hard copy, but is also in need of additional functions. The developed measuring instrument appeared to be a proficient aid in outlining the information needs and demands of the health service staff. Through the developed questionnaire, the staff was able to obtain an idea of the possibilities of the computer-based patient record and state their own interest in same.

Setting a national informatics agenda for nursing education and practice to prepare nurses to develop and use information technology.

Efforts to build a telecommunications infrastructure that will link people nationally and internationally includes a focus on health care. A telecommunications infrastructure will add value to providers and consumers of health care only if they are able to use it to access and share information. Nurses often have information technology available to them, but are inadequately prepared to use it. Under the direction of the National Advisory Council for Nursing Education and Practice (NACNEP), the Division of Nursing convened a panel of experts in nursing informatics to recommend an informatics agenda. Using a nominal group technique the informatics experts identified informatics needs and recommended initiatives that would better prepare nurses to use and develop information technology. Their recommendations were reviewed by NACNEP resulting in a national informatics agenda for nursing education and practice.

Barriers to the adoption of computerized technology in health care systems.

The increased emphasis on national health care plans, cost reduction, and additional recordkeeping has given impetus to the adoption of computerized information technologies in hospitals. A series of case studies performed in large, multihospital health care systems revealed ten important barriers to the adoption of information technologies grouped as follows: knowledge problems, approval problems, design problems, and implementation problems. These aspects were uncovered by using focus studies and interviews with chief information officers, physicians, consultants, and medical staff and by consulting numerous journals in the field. The article describes the barriers that arise because of the special conditions in hospitals and shows how some institutions are working to eliminate these barriers. The strategic issues that should be studied to overcome these barriers are also discussed.

Allied health applications of a computerized clinical log database system.

Preliminary research in the development and use of computerized clinical log records began in 1987 in an allied health college at a midwestern academic health center. This article reviews development and implementation of a computerized system for managing clinical log records to improve and enhance allied health educational programs in the radiation sciences. These clinical log databases are used for quantitative and qualitative analyses of student participation in clinical procedures, and educational planning for each student. Collecting and recording data from clinical log records serves as a valuable instructional tool for students, with both clinical and didactic applications.

[A hygienic assessment of the work of students on Macintosh computers].

Various kinds of works of 6-11th-form schoolchildren on Macintosh computers were physiologically and hygienically assessed at the lesson of information science and computer engineering (ISCE), as well as typing. The fatigue of a visual analyzer was due to the time of looking through the data available on the display; the adverse changes of the higher nervous activity depends on the complexity of educational materials and the intensity of work on a computer. Three-hour studies in ISCE should be excluded from the time able of lessons as they do not meet hygienic requirements.

The Internet unraveled.

Although a fairly recent phenomenon in our culture, the Internet and its features have enjoyed a meteoric rise in use. E-mail, mailing lists, news groups, and forums provide Internet users the ability to network worldwide. The WWW, with its ease of use, has made accessing information easy, but has also created a need to learn to find and then to evaluate the information that is found. This article explores the above facets of the Internet and provides suggestions for using e-mail, locating mailing lists, searching the WWW, and evaluating the information found there. A vocabulary list is provided to assist with unfamiliar terminology. Words in the vocabulary are in boldface type the first time they are used.
