Area of Science:

  • Medical Informatics
  • Health Information Systems
  • Telematics in Healthcare

Background:

  • Healthcare data exchange traditionally relies on paper-based methods, including postal mail for letters, reports, and results.
  • The increasing integration of Medical Informatics and Hospital Information Systems necessitates more advanced data exchange procedures.
  • Existing electronic communication methods lack the required security, protection, and speed for sensitive medical data transmission.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To introduce the Rithme Intermediation Platform as a solution for secure and rapid electronic communication among healthcare professionals within a specific geographical area.
  • To evaluate the effectiveness of the Rithme Platform's 'Events Server' in collecting and disseminating patient information to authorized medical personnel.
  • To address the limitations of traditional data exchange methods in healthcare settings.
