Area of Science:

  • Health Informatics
  • Digital Health
  • Medical Technology

Background:

  • Limited digital access to patient medical data in Cyprus.
  • Need for integrated healthcare solutions for improved patient care.
  • The eHealth4U platform initiative aims to establish a national electronic health record (EHR) system.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To present MYeHealthAppCY, a mobile health (mHealth) application for Cyprus.
  • To provide patients and healthcare providers with secure access to medical data.
  • To integrate features like patient summaries, prescription management, teleconsultation, and European Digital COVID Certificates (EUDCC).

Main Methods:

  • Development of the MYeHealthAppCY application based on Health-Level Seven International Fast Healthcare Interoperability Resources (FHIR) standards.
  • Adherence to established coding standards for robust and interoperable system design.
  • Integration into the broader eHealth4U platform prototype for national EHR implementation.

Main Results:

  • The MYeHealthAppCY application successfully incorporates key features for mHealth in Cyprus.
  • Evaluation results indicate satisfactory performance of the developed application.
  • The application serves as a functional prototype within the eHealth4U national EHR initiative.

Conclusions:

  • MYeHealthAppCY represents a significant step towards a national digital health infrastructure in Cyprus.
  • The application's adherence to FHIR standards ensures interoperability and data exchange capabilities.
  • Further development and testing are necessary for the successful production deployment of MYeHealthAppCY.
