Ten years after the first Summit took place in Geneva, information and communication technologies have gained even greater importance. Today, there are nearly 7 billion mobile phone subscriptions. More and more people are using the Internet, giving them access to vital information and knowledge. This is welcome progress. At the same time, we must do more to close the digital divide and ensure that all people have access to transformational information and communications technology. The digital revolution must be inclusive and serve as an instrument to promote equality. Your efforts are especially important as we accelerate efforts to achieve the Millennium Development Goals by the quickly-approaching 2015 deadline, and as we strive to define an ambitious and inspiring post-2015 development agenda. The ability to process data in new ways, in great volume, in real time, can help us to significantly improve policy-making, early warning and much else. I count on you to identify ways to shape technological progress so that we may promote sustainable development, the overarching global challenge of our time. In this spirit, I wish you great success.

  • Analysis of Various Techniques for Knowledge Mining in Electronic Health Records
    European Journal of Molecular & Clinical Medicine ISSN 2515-8260 Volume 7, Issue 11, 2020 Analysis of various techniques for Knowledge Mining in Electronic Health Records 1V.Deepa, 2P.Mohamed Fathimal 1Research Scholar , 2 Assistant Professor ,SRM Institute of Science & Technology, Vadapalani ,Chennai Abstract With the fast development of digital communication all over the world ,each domain including healthcare sector has led to new dimension . “Health Informatics,” are the term used to coin application of IT for better healthcare services. Its applications helps to maintain the health record of individuals, in digital form known as the Electronic Health Record .This paper reviews the Electronic health records (EHR) in healthcare organizations. These digital records can help to support clinical activities that have the ability to improve quality of health and to reduce the costs. The aim of this paper is to study the detail analysis of the structure and the components of electronic health record.This paper reviews different techniques for handling the information in the text and different components of the electronic health record include daily charting, physical assessment, medication, discharge history, physical examination and test procedures. Keywords: Physical Assessment, Survey medication, Semantics, patience, Information Quality, Health care policy planning I INTRODUCTION In healthcare domain, more than 1100 electronic health record vendors are available all over the world. National policy and guidelines have been framed for EHR dealers and medical benefits. EHR collects real time medical data which stores patient’s information in a digital format like a history chart. As all the information are accessible in a single file, extraction of medical data from EMRs (electronic medical records) for analysis is very effective for the analysis.

  • Comparison of Open-Source Electronic Health Record Systems Based on Functional and User Performance Criteria
    Original Article Healthc Inform Res. 2019 April;25(2):89-98. https://doi.org/10.4258/hir.2019.25.2.89 pISSN 2093-3681 • eISSN 2093-369X Comparison of Open-Source Electronic Health Record Systems Based on Functional and User Performance Criteria Saptarshi Purkayastha1, Roshini Allam1, Pallavi Maity1, Judy W. Gichoya2 1Department of BioHealth Informatics, Indiana University–Purdue University Indianapolis, Indianapolis, IN, USA 2Dotter Institute, Oregon Health and Science University, Portland, OR, USA Objectives: Open-source Electronic Health Record (EHR) systems have gained importance. The main aim of our research is to guide organizational choice by comparing the features, functionality, and user-facing system performance of the five most popular open-source EHR systems. Methods: We performed qualitative content analysis with a directed approach on recently published literature (2012–2017) to develop an integrated set of criteria to compare the EHR systems. The functional criteria are an integration of the literature, meaningful use criteria, and the Institute of Medicine’s functional requirements of EHR, whereas the user-facing system performance is based on the time required to perform basic tasks within the EHR system. Results: Based on the Alexa web ranking and Google Trends, the five most popular EHR systems at the time of our study were OSHERA VistA, GNU Health, the Open Medical Record System (OpenMRS), Open Electronic Medical Record (OpenEMR), and OpenEHR. We also found the trends in popularity of the EHR systems and the locations where they were more popular than others. OpenEMR met all the 32 functional criteria, OSHERA VistA met 28, OpenMRS met 12 fully and 11 partially, OpenEHR-based EHR met 10 fully and 3 partially, and GNU Health met the least with only 10 criteria fully and 2 partially.

Currently, there are over 50 open source EHR systems available. Functionality and usability are important factors for determining the success of any system. These factors are often a direct reflection of the domain knowledge and developers' motivations. However, few published studies have focused on the characteristics of free and open source software (F/OSS) EHR systems and none to date have discussed the motivation, knowledge background, and demographic characteristics of the developers involved in open source EHR projects. Objective: This study analyzed the characteristics of prevailing F/OSS EHR systems and aimed to provide an understanding of the motivation, knowledge background, and characteristics of the developers. Methods: This study identified F/OSS EHR projects on SourceForge and other websites from May to July 2014.
