So far, the Faculty of Medicine Siriraj Hospital has dealt with the change management of the Si vWORK application/ website appropriately in my opinion. To illustrate how the ADKAR model in change management can be applied, consider the following:

Awareness: The organization introduced Si vWORK in response to the need for improved communication…[Read more]

I would like to introduce the ‘Si vWORK’ application and website, exclusively designed for employees of the Faculty of Medicine, Siriraj Hospital, and created by the Siriraj Information Technology department. This system offers several features that enhance communication and collaboration within the hospital. Whether it’s accessing all emplo…[Read more]

At Siriraj hospital, there is a decision support system on the electronic medical record. When I enter the Hospital number (HN) of a patient, it will pop-up an alert/reminder, mostly about drug allergies and some severe diseases that the patient has. This will help the physician to avoid giving the medication that the patient cannot take.

In my…[Read more]

If hospitals lack the ICD standard, it would be difficult for healthcare workers since a standard is essential for exchanging health information among departments and hospitals.
– Confused communication when classifying diseases: When exchanging health data of patients, specific diseases need to be classified. Different disease names may refer to…[Read more]

I am surprised that using EMR can lead to physician burnout; this is new information. EMR is what I used the most while I worked as a research technical officer because I had to collect and review related health data of the project participants. However, sometimes I found that the EMR encountered slow responses and even stopped working, not…[Read more]

Great presentation! I would like to add that the Hedley Environmental Index Dashboard not only raises awareness of air quality in people’s living areas but also provides a cost-free service accessible to everyone which means that anyone can visit the dashboard website to view the air quality index.

Excellent presentation!
Besides its benefits of reducing costs and workloads, and enhancing the productivity of healthcare workers while improving newborn health outcomes, I believe that the infrastructure of the newborn screening system could be adapted for use in other hospital departments, such as implementing Hepatitis B and C screening in…[Read more]

According to the paper mentioned, the eHealth scope is divided into 3 domains:
– Health in our hands = Individuals use their own technologies and tools, such as mobile devices and wearables, to keep and monitor their health information.
– Interacting for health = Healthcare professionals use technologies to communicate and provide useful…[Read more]

I would like to present ‘Twitter’ or the current name ‘X’ as an example that is considered as Big Data. Twitter can be categorized into the 5Vs of Big Data characteristics as follows:

1. Volume = There are millions of tweets posted daily from across the world, including texts, images, and various other media content.
2. Velocity = Twitter’s users…[Read more]

1. Have you ever observed a health informatics project in your (other) organization? Please provide a brief introduction.

= I am currently involved in the Global IBD Visualization of Epidemiology Studies (GIVES) in the 21st Century (GIVES-21) project as a project coordinator in Thailand. The main investigator for this project is the Faculty of…[Read more]

The news has been a topic of discussion for a while in Thailand. Implementing strict data access control to limit permissions for accessing sensitive data, granting them only to admins and staff based on their roles and responsibilities is crucial. Also, these people must be aware of and are well-informed about how to manage and safeguard this…[Read more]

Good summary, Ching to Chung!
Having alternate access paths that can be activated during emergencies can help maintain service availability during an attack, although it does not prevent a DDoS attack. However, combining this strategy with the preventions mentioned above will be effective against DDoS attacks.

Great work, Supida! Your suggested preventive measures are great for protecting against incident like this. Also, I would like to add that keeping system, software, and patches up to date is another way to make it difficult for information to be breached.

The web-based patient appointment application should be developed on a cloud server, due to the limited IT officer available. Also, selecting a PaaS (Platform as a Service) cloud computing service model is recommended to develop a web-based application.

Running the application on a cloud server offers several benefits, including reliability,…[Read more]

Thank you for the excellent overview of common IT attack methods. I would like to point out that these attacks are continuously evolving. This certainly raises concerns that we should keep watchful about in the future.

There are multiple ways to be targeted by attackers for hacking, and three common methods that non-IT people, like myself, often hear about for the theft of personal information are as follows:

1. Phishing Attack
Attackers frequently employ deceptive emails or messages to trick individuals into revealing sensitive information, such as financial…[Read more]

I think the “MOHPROMPT” application is the best application that was created during the pandemic in Thailand, even though it has been having many problems as you mentioned. If the “MOHPROMPT” application gets rid of its cons, I think it has the potential to develop into a vaccine passport application, not only for the COVID-19 vaccine but also for…[Read more]

Another application that was developed during the pandemic in Thailand is called “Mor-Cha-Na.” This application was created to prevent virus transmission by tracking users and notifying them when they are close to infected individuals or in high-risk areas. Also, users could assess their virus infection risk by answering a set of assessment…[Read more]
