Ethical Standards I01:25

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,...

Issues And Trends In Healthcare Delivery System

The issues and trends in healthcare delivery are constantly changing. The COVID-19 pandemic is one recent issue that wreaked havoc on healthcare systems, causing a shortage of healthcare workers, high demand for medicines and supplies, and increased medical expenditure due to a lack of insurance. Other issues include rising healthcare costs and care fragmentation.
Cost Containment
Payment for healthcare services has historically promoted adoption of costly and often unnecessary or inefficient...

Legal Guidelines for Documentation

The legal guidelines for nursing documentation are essential for ensuring accurate, professional, and ethical recording of patient care. The guidelines are discussed here:
Ethical Standards II01:23

Ethical Standards II

Ethical standards are the backbone of nursing practice, guiding nurses as they interact with patients, families, and colleagues. These standards are crucial for providing safe, empathetic care centered on the patient's needs.
Nurses are entrusted with upholding various ethical principles and standards. Nurses forge solid therapeutic relationships using trust, empathy, autonomy, confidentiality, and professional competence.
Confidentiality is crucial, embodying respect for individual privacy and...
Integrated Healthcare System01:20

Integrated Healthcare System

An integrated healthcare system (IHS) is a set of organizations that provides for or arranges to provide coordinated and continuous service to a defined population. The IHS takes responsibility for that particular population's health status and outcome, both clinically and fiscally. An integrated healthcare system is a well-organized, well-coordinated, and collaborative network. The integrated delivery system is a network that connects different healthcare providers to deliver organized,...

Area of Science:

  • Health Informatics
  • Cybersecurity
  • Mobile Computing

Background:

  • Mobile Health (mHealth) offers accessible healthcare but faces challenges with data privacy and device limitations.
  • Increasing chronic diseases and healthcare costs necessitate secure and efficient remote health solutions.
  • mHealth apps require robust security to protect sensitive patient information from breaches.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To propose, develop, and validate a data encryption solution for mobile health apps (DE4MHA).
  • To ensure confidentiality, integrity, and authenticity of health information in mHealth environments.
  • To evaluate the performance impact of DE4MHA, considering cooperation strategies.

Main Methods:

  • Designed and deployed the DE4MHA solution.
  • Compared symmetric and asymmetric encryption algorithms within an mHealth app context.
  • Evaluated DE4MHA performance using a prototype mHealth app (SapoFit) with real users.

Main Results:

  • DE4MHA successfully guaranteed confidentiality and protection of user health information.
  • mHealth app performance with DE4MHA was comparable to the app without encryption, with negligible differences.
  • Service delivery probability decreased with more uncooperative nodes, but DE4MHA maintained satisfactory quality.

Conclusions:

  • DE4MHA provides a robust solution for securing mHealth data, enhancing privacy and authenticity.
  • The implemented security mechanisms did not negatively affect overall network or app performance.
  • DE4MHA and its cooperation strategy are adaptable for use in various mHealth applications.
