The current Finnish public hospitals' eHealth services are organization-oriented rather than patient-oriented. Patients remain passive and use eHealth services that are designed by private or governmental organizations. Patients had little or no involvement in that process. This paper introduces a novel eHealth Services Model that can be used as a tool to capture the needs of both organizations and patients. Two eHealth services were used to verify and support the validity of the presented model. The first eHealth service features came from an existing Finnish eHealth service that was designed by a Finnish organization...

Evaluating conversational agents (CA) that are supposed to be applied in healthcare and ensuring their quality is essential to avoid patient harm. However, most researchers only study usability and use the CA in clinical trials before conducting such careful evaluation. In previous work, consensus on metrics for evaluating healthcare CA have been found. However, the metrics are still too generic to form an evaluation framework. In this work, we try to link the ISO technical specification ISO/TS 82304-2 Quality Requirements for Health and Wellness Apps to the set of metrics to come a step closer towards an evaluation framework...

Mapping clinical attributes from hospital information systems to standardized terminologies may allow their scientific reuse for multicenter studies. The Unified Medical Language System (UMLS) defines synonyms in different terminologies, which could be valuable for achieving semantic interoperability between different sites. Here we aim to explore the potential relevance of UMLS concepts and associated semantic relations for widely used clinical terminologies in a German university hospital. To semi-automatically examine a sample of the 200 most frequent codes from Erlangen University Hospital for three relevant terminologies, we implemented a script that queries their UMLS representation and associated mappings via a programming interface...

This paper deals with a developed information system called a Personal Genetic Card (PGC). The system aims to integrate the known clinical knowledge (interpretations and recommendations) linked to genetic information with the analysis results of a patient. Genetic information has an increasing influence on the clinical decision of physicians as well as other medical and health services. All these services need to connect the genetic profile with the phenotypes such as drug metabolization, drug toxicity, drug dosing, or intolerance of some substances...

Anti-Microbial Resistance is one of the greatest threats that mankind faces right now due to the inappropriate use of antibiotics. Institution of appropriate antibiotics in right dose for the right patient at right time is the "gamechanger" in fighting AMR. Antibiotic Sensitivity Testing (AST) or antibiogram is done to ascertain the sensitivity profile of the organism. The most widely used method in laboratory practice in India is the Kirby-Bauer's disk diffusion test. There are few shortcomings in the manual interpretation of antibiograms in the form of high inter-operator variability, mandatory requirement of trained microbiologists - which is difficult in low-resource settings and high degree of interpersonal bias due to various factors like stress, workload, and visual acuity...

Empowerment is a process through which people acquire the necessary knowledge and self-awareness to understand their health conditions and treatment options, self-manage them, and make informed choices. Currently, few stand-alone applications for patient empowerment exist and people/patients often go on the Web to search for health information. Such information is mainly obtained through generic search engines and it is often overwhelming, too generic, and of poor quality. Intelligent Empowering Agents (IEA) can filter such information and assist the user in the understanding of health information about specific complaints or health in general...

JOURNAL ARTICLE
Jaime Delgado, Silvia Llorente
Medical data describe patient health information, both in healthy and disease conditions. In any case, health institutions need to ask for patient consent in order to provide their services. Patients usually give consent on a one-time basis, for a specific usage. Afterwards, if medical data usage is research, original patient consent does not apply and further consents should be required. On the other hand, provenance of medical data to verify the origin of health procedures is desirable, as digital health is increasing...
