Computerizing medical records in Japan

PURPOSE: The present study reports the current status of computerizing medical records in Japan. In 2001, the Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare formulated the Grand Design for the Development of Information Systems in the Healthcare and Medical Fields. The Grand Design stated a numerical target for "spreading the use of electronic medical records (EMR) in at least 60% of Japan's hospitals with 400 or more beds by 2006." The objective of this study was to examine the extent to which EMR and order entry systems (OES) have been adopted as of February 2007 and to evaluate the Japanese government's policy regarding the computerization of medical records. METHODS: We conducted a postal survey targeting medical institutions throughout Japan. In February 2007, we mailed self-administered questionnaires to all 1574 hospitals with 300 or more beds, and to a random selection of 1000 hospitals with less than 300 beds in addition to 4000 clinics. Responses were received from 812 (51.6%), 504 (50.5%), and 1769 (44.8%), respectively. We asked questions concerning: (i) the extent to which EMR and OES had been introduced; (ii) the reasons why certain institutions had not introduced EMR and (iii) the subjective evaluation of the efficacy and cost-effectiveness of EMR. RESULTS: The percentage of institutions that had introduced EMR as of February 2007 was 10.0% for hospitals and 10.1% for clinics. Even the percentage for hospitals with 400 or more beds was just 31.2%, illustrating that the government's target had not been reached. The most common reason given for not introducing EMR was: "The cost is high" which was observed in 82.0% of hospitals. It was considered that the introduction of EMR could improve 'inter-hospital networks', and 'time efficiency for physicians' by around 45% and 25% of hospitals, respectively. CONCLUSION: Healthcare information computerization in Japan is behind schedule because the introductory costs are high. For the computerization of healthcare information to be further promoted, prices of EMR systems should be lowered to a level which individual hospitals can afford. Furthermore, the communication between EMR systems should be further standardized to secure functional and semantic interoperability in Japan.     

The intelligent use and clinical benefits of electronic medical records in multiple sclerosis

Electronic medical records (EMRs) are being quickly adopted in clinics around the world. This advancement can greatly enhance the clinical care of patients with multiple sclerosis (MS) by providing formats that allow easier review of medical documents and more structured avenues to store relevant information. MS clinicians should be involved with implementing and updating EMRs at their institutions to ensure EMR formats that benefit MS clinics. EMRs also provide opportunities for research studies of MS to access detailed, longitudinal data of MS disease course that would otherwise be difficult to collect.

Data-driven approach for assessing utility of medical tests using electronic medical records

ObjectiveTo precisely define the utility of tests in a clinical pathway through data-driven analysis of the electronic medical record (EMR).Materials and methodsThe information content was defined in terms of the entropy of the expected value of the test related to a given outcome. A kernel density classifier was used to estimate the necessary distributions. To validate the method, we used data from the EMR of the gastrointestinal department at a university hospital. Blood tests from patients undergoing surgery for gastrointestinal surgery were analyzed with respect to second surgery within 30 days of the index surgery.ResultsThe information content is clearly reflected in the patient pathway for certain combinations of tests and outcomes. C-reactive protein tests coupled to anastomosis leakage, a severe complication show a clear pattern of information gain through the patient trajectory, where the greatest gain from the test is 3–4 days post index surgery.DiscussionWe have defined the information content in a data-driven and information theoretic way such that the utility of a test can be precisely defined. The results reflect clinical knowledge. In the case we used the tests carry little negative impact. The general approach can be expanded to cases that carry a substantial negative impact, such as in certain radiological techniques.     

Computing disease incidence,prevalence and comorbidity from electronic medical records

Electronic medical records (EMR) represent a convenient source of coded medical data, but disease patterns found in EMRs may be biased when compared to surveys based on sampling. In this communication we draw attention to complications that arise when using EMR data to calculate disease prevalence, incidence, age of onset, and disease comorbidity. We review known solutions to these problems and identify challenges for future work.     

A model approach to sharing electronic medical records between and within the state hospitals in Turkey

It has always been a research interest to solve hospital management problems with systematic approach by using modern management tools. Almost all the Hospital Information System (HIS) software packages in Turkey keep track of local transactions in administrative activities and material flow. In state hospitals in Turkey, very little medical information is processed and most of the records are still kept manually and archived on papers.

In this paper, a cost-effective, flexible and easy-to-use Hospital Information System model is proposed in order to give better diagnostic and treatment services. It is also demonstrated that this model makes it possible to exchange information between and within the hospitals over Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) network. User needs are taken into consideration during model development and the benefits of model implementation to the hospital administration are stated. According to the model proposed in this paper, only a single health care record number (HCRN) is required for a patient to access all her/his medical records stored in different locations, from any state hospital in Turkey.     

The comparative study on concept representation between the UMLS and the clinical terms in Korean medical records

OBJECTIVE: The National Library of Medicine's Unified Medical Language System (UMLS) is a rich source of knowledge in the biomedical domain. The UMLS is used for research and development across wide range of different applications. In this paper, we evaluated the coverage of UMLS as compared with medical terms extracted from Korean medical records and identified differences in concept representation between two terminology sets. DESIGN AND MEASUREMENT: We measured the concept coverage of the UMLS. For this study, we mapped the clinical terms extracted from the discharge records of Seoul National University Hospital (SNUH) to the UMLS. RESULTS: Thirty-five percent of the entry terms used in chief complaint of SNUH were conceptually matched with the UMLS 'Sign or Symptom' concepts. Fifty-eight percent of the terms were found to be matched with the UMLS 'Disease or Syndrome' concept rather than the 'Sign or Symptom' concept. The remaining 7% were not found in the UMLS concepts. We then analyzed some of different expression patterns used by the two term sets and addressed issues to be taken into consideration. CONCLUSION: We found out that the UMLS was comparable with Korean medical records, since most of concepts of Korean medical records were covered with the UMLS concepts.     

Attitudes of Jewish and Bedouin responders toward family physicians’ use of electronic medical records during the medical encounter

Objective

Culture is known to impact expectations from medical treatments. The effects of cultural differences on attitudes toward Electronic Medical Records (EMR) have not been investigated. We compared the attitudes of Jewish and Bedouin responders toward EMR's use by family physicians during the medical encounter, and examined the contribution of background variables to these attitudes.

Methods

86 Jewish and 89 Bedouin visitors of patients in a regional Israeli University Medical Center responded to a self-reporting questionnaire with Hebrew and Arabic versions.

Results

T-tests and a linear regression analysis found that culture did not predict attitudes. Respondents’ self-reported health status, Internet and e-mail use, and estimates of their physician's typing speed explained a total of 18.6% of the variance in attitudes (p < 0.001).

Conclusion

Bedouins respondents’ attitudes toward EMR use were better than expected and similar to those of their Jewish counterparts. The most significant factor influencing respondents’ attitudes was the physician's typing speed.

Practice implications

(1) Further studies should consider the possible impact of cultural differences between the family physician and the healthcare client on attitudes. (2) Interventions to improve physicians’ skill in operating EMRs and typing will potentially have a positive impact on patients’ satisfaction with physicians’ EMR use.
