Fragmented patient records across healthcare systems hinder data retrieval. This study proposes a novel architecture to address data representation and storage challenges, improving access to comprehensive patient information.

Area of Science:

  • Health Informatics
  • Computer Science
  • Data Management

Background:

  • Growing adoption of computer systems for patient data storage across diverse healthcare settings.
  • Significant challenges arise from data fragmentation and lack of standardization in electronic health records.
  • Difficulty in accessing and retrieving complete patient information due to disparate data systems.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To address the problem of fragmented patient records.
  • To propose a novel architecture for overcoming data retrieval challenges.
  • To improve the coordination and standardization of patient data representation and storage.

Main Methods:

  • Analysis of two key aspects of patient record fragmentation.
  • Description of a proposed architectural solution.
