Ethical Standards I

Ethical Standards I

The American Nurses Association (ANA) created and implemented the first nationally accepted Code of Ethics for Nurses with Interpretive Statements. The Code of Ethics is a living document regularly updated by the ANA and establishes an ethical standard that is non-negotiable for nurses in all roles and settings.
The Code of Ethics provisions outline the nurse's duty to the patient, the healthcare team, the profession, and society. The Code's fundamental principles include advocacy,...

Area of Science:

Medical Informatics
Cloud Computing Security

Background:

Traditional Picture Archiving and Communication Systems (PACS) are limited by on-premises infrastructure, increasing costs and restricting global accessibility.
Public cloud services present a viable alternative to overcome these limitations, offering enhanced flexibility and reduced ownership expenses for PACS.

Purpose of the Study:

To investigate the feasibility of implementing cloud-based PACS solutions.
To establish a secure communication policy for cloud-based PACS, focusing on authentication and encryption.

Main Methods:

The study focused on implementing a cloud-based PACS architecture.
Transport Layer Security (TLS) was utilized to secure communications between the cloud PACS server and client applications.

Main Results:

The implementation successfully demonstrated the use of TLS for secure data transfer in a cloud PACS environment.
This approach addresses the critical need for secure communication in cloud-based medical imaging systems.

Conclusions:

Cloud-based PACS, secured with TLS, can enhance accessibility and flexibility while mitigating infrastructure costs.
Secure communication protocols are essential for the safe and effective adoption of cloud technologies in healthcare archiving and communication systems.
