[Improving the cancer screening model: experience applying an integrated operating system]

Cancer patient numbers have continued to rise in recent years. In terms of deaths from various cancers, malignancies are involved in 28.9% of cases. Over the course of disease contraction, treatment and aftercare, patients face unease and pressure of various forms and degrees. Patients may abort treatment due to treatment pain and discomfort. The case manager may play a positive role by following up at appropriate moments to understand patient needs and deliver proper resources in order to avoid cancer recrudescence, which may delay treatment progress.

The objective of this study was to improve nursing quality and management performance in cancer patient care. Through the integration of the management information system, A "Cancer Case Screening System" was built using a management information system to shorten the amount of time spent on scanning new cases and to reduce the rate of scanning error.

Using a decision matrix, the research team proposed the following solution: (1) Define the system infrastructure currently employed in hospitals; (2) Discuss the Cancer Cases Screening System workflow and determine system specifications; (3) Write the Cancer Cases Screening System program to establish an effective management information system.

The time spent on scanning case per day dropped from 117.14 to 28.57 minutes. The error rate was also reduced from 34.65% to 8.87%. These results achieved the objective of the project.

Promoting the developed screening system in the broader medical community can help reduce medical treatment costs and increase treatment continuity. This project may be considered and referenced by managers of relevant medical organizations.
