Hi Ama,
Thanks for sharing your opinion about EPI data. Your mention of Variety and Veracity shows the complexity of EPI data, since it includes both structured (dosage, coverage rates) and unstructured information (adverse events following immunization), and is collected by trained staff using verified hospital records. This helps ensure…[Read more]

My opinion for an example of Big Data in healthcare is the Electronic Health Records (EHRs) combined with real-time patient monitoring data. For instance, hospitals now collect huge volumes of information such as laboratory test results, imaging files, medical reports, prescriptions, wearable device data (like heart rate, oxygen level, or physical…[Read more]

Brief Introduction
I have observed the implementation of an Electronic Medical Record (EMR) system in the hospital where I worked. This system was used to digitally store and manage patient health information, replacing most of the traditional paper-based documentation. The EMR allowed doctors, nurses, and other healthcare professionals to access…[Read more]

Hi Sayar!
Thank you for sharing your experience with the Community-Based Health App (CBHA) project. Digital literacy and limited internet connectivity are common barriers in community-based health informatics projects. It’s encouraging that practical solutions, such as offline data collection and uploading when connectivity is available, were i…[Read more]

Thank you for sharing your experience with the EMR project in Yangon. It’s impressive to see how you implemented a comprehensive digital solution across three clinics, involving a multi-disciplinary team of developers. Technical issues, resistance to change, interdisciplinary communication gaps, and interoperability are common challenges in h…[Read more]

Your plan to implement a hybrid cloud model for the hospital’s information system is very well considered, especially given Myanmar’s challenges with electricity and internet connectivity. Storing sensitive patient data locally while using the cloud for less critical information strikes a good balance between security and accessibility. I also agr…[Read more]

I would consider moving the hospital’s information system to cloud computing using a hybrid cloud approach. This allows the hospital to store sensitive data on-premises while using the cloud for less critical data, which is suitable given Myanmar’s current infrastructure and connectivity. Cloud computing provides access to resources and imp…[Read more]

Yes, my computer was once infected by a cyber threat. It happened when I inserted a USB stick into my computer without checking it for potential malware. The cause was a malware infection from the USB stick. After the infection, my computer started to slow down significantly, and some files were affected or became inaccessible. To prevent this…[Read more]

Thanks for sharing your experience.

That sounds like a very practical and patient-centered approach. A mobile app for scheduling and symptom tracking would empower patients to take an active role in their own care, improving both awareness and adherence to treatment plans. Including a self-evaluation tool or scoring system is an excellent idea. Thanks for sharing.

I would like to build an app focused on patient care coordination and communication between doctors and patients. It would handle appointment scheduling, medical record access, telemedicine, and medication management. This ensures timely interventions, reduces miscommunication, and helps patients stay engaged in their health. The app would be a…[Read more]

I think your proposed improvements are practical and well-targeted. Implementing interoperable EHRs, streamlining workflows, and providing comprehensive training would go a long way toward addressing both technical and human challenges. I would also add that ongoing monitoring and feedback from staff using the system can help identify new issues…[Read more]

In my workplace, the patient management and therapy tracking system for people with disabilities still faces many challenges. Much of the patient information, including therapy plans, progress notes, and medical history, is recorded manually or across multiple unintegrated platforms. This leads to inefficiency, delayed access to information, time…[Read more]

Thanks for identifying the key issues, such as the incomplete implementation of multi-factor authentication (MFA) and the lack of a proactive security strategy. I would like to add The Zero Trust architecture could further enhance the system’s security posture. In this model, no user or device is trusted by default, and strict identity v…[Read more]

Thanks for your comprehensive and and clear analysis of the SingHealth data breach. I would like to tell my opinion on some additional preventive measures that could help in mitigating similar attacks in the future. Beyond phishing awareness, it would be beneficial for organizations like SingHealth to implement Endpoint Detection and Response…[Read more]

Hi Nang!
The preventive measures you’ve outlined are also comprehensive, but I think there are a few more steps that could be emphasized or elaborated on to enhance data protection in similar situations. In this case, PHI was inadvertently shared with Google Ads. Anonymizing or pseudonymizing data before sharing with third parties (like Google…[Read more]

Some possible means an attacker could use to conduct a security attack could be:
-Phishing mails are very popular and remain one of the most common methods of cyberattack worldwide. Attackers may send fake emails pretending to be someone or some organization or company name to trick the user into revealing login credentials or downloading…[Read more]

Thanks for sharing your experience. This is a reminder for me who is less aware on security matter.

There are so many benefits of cloud server and it reduces the IT workload. I also think PaaS will be more flexible than SaaS.
