Ehr Principles And Trends Analysis
Key terms of EHRs and examples in various types of care settings
1. Health Information System:
According to WHO, is the underpinning for decision making in health field and is essential for health system policies development and implementation, governance and regulation, health research, human resources development, health education and training, service delivery and financing. It has four keys functions: data generation, compilation, analysis and synthesis, and communication and use. In addition ensures their overall quality, relevance and timeliness, and converts data into information for health related decision making.
Further, the system provides an alert and early warning capability, supporting patient and health facility management, enabling planning, supporting and stimulating research, permitting health situation and trends analysis, supporting global reporting communication of …show more content…
We report that baseline levels of creatinine and uric acid, as well as baseline BMI, are strong predictors of disease progression and survival.
3. Clinical decision support system (CDSS)
Clinical decision support system (CDSS): A special subcategory of clinical information systems that is designed to help healthcare providers make knowledge-based clinical decision. (Health Information Management, concepts, Principles, and Practice, 4th Ed. Glossary 902)
The main purpose of modern CDSS is to assist clinicians at the point of care. This means that a clinician would interact with a CDSS to help determine diagnosis, analysis, etc. of patient data.
There have always been errors that occur within the healthcare industry, thus trying to minimize them as much as possible in order to provide quality patient care. Four areas that can be addressed with the implementation of CDSS are:
1. Medical error
2. Medication error
3. Adverse drug events
4. Lessen
