まとめ
医療におけるデジタル化は 炭素排出量に影響を及ぼします このレビューでは 遠隔医療は 直接の診察と比較して 排出量を大幅に減らすことが分かりましたが 人工知能やその他の デジタルヘルスの分野では より多くの研究が必要です
科学分野:
- 環境科学
- 医療情報学
- 公衆衛生
背景:
- 医療制度のデジタル化が進むにつれて 環境の持続可能性に チャンスも課題ももたらされています
- デジタルヘルスケア技術と関連した炭素排出量を理解することは,環境にやさしい医療の発展に不可欠です.
研究 の 目的:
- 医療のデジタル化がどのように進んでいるかを特定するスコーピングレビューを実施します.
- デジタル化が医療の気候への影響を及ぼすメカニズムを探る
主な方法:
- PRISMAのガイドラインに従って スコップを体系的に検討する.
- Web of ScienceとPubMedで実施された文献検索で,AIや診断などの不足したトピックに関する追加記事で補完されました.
- 特定された32の研究と関連する文献の分析.
主要な成果:
- 遠隔医療による診察は 直接診察と比較して カーボンフットプリントを大幅に削減します (79-99%削減)
- カーボンフットプリントの分析は,システムの境界と透明性の低いため,幅広く変化しました.
- 診断,過剰診断,自己追跡,人工知能 (AI) のような重要な分野はさらなる調査を必要としています.
結論:
- デジタル化によって医療の気候への影響が 減るか 増加するかの証拠は 限られています
- デジタルヘルスの新興技術や 炭素排出量削減のための戦略的目標設定に焦点を当てた研究が必要です
- 医療における環境の持続可能性に向けたデジタル化の取り組みを導くための枠組みが提案されています.

Methods of Documentation VII: EMR
910
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...
