This study introduces a hypermedia system for managing electronic health records (EHRs), overcoming database limitations. Utilizing XML on a hospital intranet, it enables flexible, semantic data retrieval for improved patient care management.

Area of Science:

  • Medical Informatics
  • Computer Science

Background:

  • Classical database systems inadequately support the variability of electronic health records (EHRs).
  • Patient profiles and practitioner habits necessitate flexible medical record management.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To present a novel hypermedia system for managing computerized medical records.
  • To address the limitations of traditional database approaches in healthcare informatics.

Main Methods:

  • Implementation of a totally-hypermedia system.
  • Leveraging a hospital intranet infrastructure.
  • Utilizing the Extensible Markup Language (XML) for semantic data definition.

Main Results:

  • The proposed system accommodates the inherent variability in medical record data.
