Hello Cing Sian Dal, thank you for your interest in the project. Based on the paper I referenced, published in 2023, and another paper in 2024 by Ruissen, M.M., Steyerberg, E.W., Huisman, S.D. et al. (2024), which provides critical comments on the assessment of quality of life and the clinical impact of the POWER2DM intervention, I expect this…[Read more]

Hello Aung Thura Htoo, if you are interested in more details about the shared decision-making process, you can go to URL: https://www.power2dm.eu/wp-content/uploads/Power2DM-D1.1-1.pdf

Implementing a Data Dashboard for decision-making is indeed a great starting point. I completely agree that to effectively transition to a Clinical Decision Support System (CDSS), we must consider that successfully implementing electronic medical records is crucial. Additionally, the performance of the computers is important; they must have…[Read more]

As far as I know, my organization has been discussing the development of a Duplicate Lab Test Alerts system as part of the Clinical Decision Support System (CDSS). This system is designed to prevent unnecessary repeat lab tests, helping to reduce costs and inconvenience for patients. There has also been talk about implementing a Medication Alert…[Read more]

I agree with your points. If hospitals do not using ICD standards, it would lead to significant issues with standardization and health information exchange. This would make it harder to track diseases, share information between hospitals, and conduct public health monitoring effectively. Additionally, it would create inefficiencies and…[Read more]

If hospitals in a country do not use the ICD standard to classify disease diagnoses, several negative consequences could arise:

Lack of Uniformity: Each hospital might use different coding systems, leading to inconsistencies in how diseases are classified and documented. This lack of uniformity would make it difficult to compare data across…[Read more]

The issue of “poor design” or “not user-friendly” in the development of digital technology, particularly Electronic Medical Records (EMRs), is a significant concern that impacts both physicians and patients. Involving physicians in the design process from the beginning can enhance that the system addresses real challenges and needs.

What do you think about this finding?
When I read this research report, I was somewhat surprised to learn that EHRs are a leading cause of physician burnout. This has implications, including increased turnover, mental health issues, and rising substance abuse. I believe this may stem from the challenges associated with transitioning to new…[Read more]

Hello Tanaphum, thank you for sharing information about MorDee. This eHealth could improves access to healthcare services in Thailand through remote consultations with various medical specialists anytime, anywhere via smartphones, also medication delivery, online insurance claim services, and online payments, removing the need for hospital visits…[Read more]

Hello Aye Thinzar, thank you for sharing your project experience. This project could improve health practices in Myanmar by providing accessible, offline health information in Burmese. The app allows users to access important health education without needing constant internet access. Its simple interface is likely to increase customer…[Read more]

Thank you for sharing your eHealth definition. You provided a concise and clear explanation. I agree that real-time data is valuable for certain aspects of eHealth, but it may not always be necessary for all types of health tracking. In some cases, having accurate, ready-to-use, and timely data can be sufficient. You might also emphasize the…[Read more]

Thank you for sharing about the MDHS. In my opinion, sensitive topics like domestic violence or HIV status should be approached carefully in large-scale surveys. Instead of asking these questions to everyone, using a sampling technique might be a more effective approach. This way, the survey can collect important data from a smaller, more specific…[Read more]

Based on the paper by Shaw et al. (2017), in my opinion a definition of eHealth could be:

“The application of digital technologies and digital data to support and improve health and healthcare aims to make healthcare more accessible, personalized, and of higher quality by bringing together technology, communication, and information. It includes…[Read more]

Electronic Health Records (EHRs) are a clear example of “Big Data.” These digital records hold extensive information about a patient’s health, including medical diagnoses, treatments, medications, allergies, and lab results.

Characteristics of Big Data in terms of the 5Vs:

1. Volume Hospital data is generated massive amounts of data daily,…[Read more]

The lack of electricity and internet, it’s really difficult to manage a medical record system without those things. It must have been challenging to keep track of everything on paper. Maybe you could have used a solar-powered system to charge devices. Or perhaps you could have tried to connect to a nearby community center or school for internet…[Read more]

I understand your experience. Several years ago, I used to work with someone who was still familiar with the old data structure even after the HIS system had been changed. They continued to convert the data structure from the new system back to the old format they had used for a long time. I didn’t really agree with this approach, but I tried to…[Read more]

This health information project belongs to a foundation that provides mobile mammography screening for breast cancer in at-risk and underprivileged women across Thailand. My sister, who works there as a radiologist, told me about their traditional service process. It includes registration, taking medical history, risk screening, doctor’s…[Read more]

Thank you for your good suggestions to prevent, like using a CDN, WAF, and rate limiting. Your work helps me understand how to protect health information from DDoS attacks. Also, they should have a plan ready to switch to backup systems fast if needed.

They could add a few more things to stop attacks. They could use better email filters to catch spam. Also, they should check who can send emails more carefully. Lastly, they could educate patients how to spot fake emails. These steps might help keep everyone safer when using the system.
