Summary
Clinical Information Systems (CIS) research is maturing, focusing on interoperability and secondary data use for improved patient safety. The best 2014 papers highlight these advancements in healthcare informatics.
Area of Science:
- Healthcare Informatics
- Medical Informatics
- Health Information Systems
Background:
- Clinical Information Systems (CIS) have evolved significantly.
- The focus has shifted from basic data acquisition to more advanced applications.
Purpose of the Study:
- To review and select the top research papers in Clinical Information Systems from 2014.
- To identify emerging trends and key areas of focus within the CIS field.
Main Methods:
- A comprehensive literature search was conducted using PubMed and Web of Science®.
- Articles were systematically reviewed and categorized, with a final selection of four best papers chosen by experts.
Main Results:
- 1525 articles published in 722 journals were initially identified.
- Key themes included interoperability (syntactic, semantic, preservation, legal) and secondary use of health data, with a strong emphasis on patient safety.
Conclusions:
- Clinical Information Systems are increasingly mature and sophisticated.
- Current research prioritizes breaking down information silos, enhancing system interoperability, and leveraging accumulated health data for diverse purposes.

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,...

1.0K
The case management model is a multidisciplinary approach that involves healthcare professionals from diverse disciplines, such as physicians, nurses, therapists, social workers, and pharmacists, working collaboratively to address the various needs of patients. Each healthcare professional brings unique expertise and perspectives, contributing to a more comprehensive understanding of the patient's condition and tailoring treatment plans accordingly.
For example, a patient with a chronic...

Electronic Medical Records (EMRs) primarily center around electronically documenting patients' health information within a single healthcare organization or practice. They contain essential clinical data related to a patient's medical history, diagnoses, medications, treatment plans, lab results, and other pertinent information relevant to the specific encounter or episode of care. EMRs are designed to streamline documentation and workflow processes within individual healthcare...
