This study presents a web-based electronic patient record (EPR) system prototype. It uses XML and Clinical Document Architecture (CDA) for integrated, standardized patient data access across healthcare organizations.

Area of Science:

  • Health Informatics
  • Computer Science

Background:

  • Healthcare organizations often use heterogeneous systems, leading to scattered patient information.
  • Integrated access to patient data is crucial for effective healthcare delivery.
  • Standardized data formats are needed for interoperability between dispersed systems.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To present a prototype implementation of a web-based electronic patient record (EPR) system.
  • To demonstrate the use of XML and Clinical Document Architecture (CDA) for structuring patient data.
  • To facilitate integrated access to patient information across different healthcare organizations.

Main Methods:

  • Developed a prototype web-based electronic patient record (EPR) system.
  • Utilized Extensible Markup Language (XML) for data formatting.

Related Experiment Videos

  • Employed Clinical Document Architecture (CDA) for defining and structuring clinical documents.

    • Main Results:

    • Successfully implemented a prototype EPR system.
    • Demonstrated the feasibility of using XML and CDA for standardized patient data representation.
    • Showcased a mechanism for integrated access to scattered patient information via the web.

    Conclusions:

    • The developed prototype effectively utilizes XML and CDA for a web-based EPR system.
    • This approach enables standardized data semantics and integrated access to patient records.
    • The system offers a viable solution for improving data interoperability in healthcare settings.
