Personal Health Record(PHR) service can be helpful to patients with diseases requiring strict everyday care and medical treatment, such as diabetes or cancer. In this paper, we propose a PHR system specialized in collecting and analyzing health record data of cancer patients, and present the process of how the system can improve the efficiency of cancer treatment process. Through the smart device application, cancer PHR system obtains daily PHR data which is highly related and critical to cancer therapy. The analysis report is provided to the medical staff with an available format suited for Electronic Medical Record used at medical institution. With the final result of PHR analysis which is easily merged with medical chart, most efficient Chemotherapy treatment can be provided for the patients. Also it is possible for the patients to give the information of side-effect and other pain experience during therapy to their doctors without loss of information. The proposed PHR system has the effect of improving the quality of patient care by allowing the medical staff to acquire the main objective data necessary for drug prescription and medical care benefits.

Recently, the medical field has been applying mandatory Electronic Medical Records (EMRs) and Electronic Health Records (EHRs) systems that computerize and manage medical records, and distributing them throughout the entire medical industry to utilize patients' past medical records for additional medical procedures. However, the conversations between medical professionals and patients that occur during general medical consultations and counseling sessions are not separately recorded or stored, so additional important patient information cannot be efficiently utilized. Therefore, we propose an electronic medical record system that uses speech recognition and natural language processing deep learning to store conversations between medical professionals and patients in text form, automatically extracts and summarizes important medical consultation information, and generates electronic medical records. The system acquires text information through the recognition process of medical professionals and patients' medical consultation content. The acquired text is then divided into multiple sentences, and the importance of multiple keywords included in the generated sentences is calculated. Based on the calculated importance, the system ranks multiple sentences and summarizes them to create the final electronic medical record data. The proposed system's performance is verified to be excellent through quantitative analysis.

전자의무기록(Electronic Medical Record, EMR) 시스템은 기존에 수기로 작성하던 의무기록을 디지털화 한 것이다. 이는 다양한 장점이 있지만 의료인이 관리 도메인을 통해 환자의 정보를 세밀하게 수집할 수 있는 환자 개인의 프라이버시 침해 문제가 발생하게 된다. 즉, 관계자에 의해 의도적인 유출이 발생하거나 의료정보의 거래, 복제 등 위험성이 존재한다. 특히 일부 의료정보는 고용 차별이나 사회적 차별 등 환자에게 정신적 고통을 안겨줄 수 있다. 이러한 프라이버시 침해는 유전성 질환 유전자를 가진 사람에게 유전적 요인에 근거하는 고용 차별이 발생할 수 있다. 관련연구에서는 환자의 임상적(Clinical) 또는 유전적(Genomic) 정보가 자신의 신원과 연계되어 있다면 프라이버시 침해가 발생할 수 있음을 나타낸다. 이러한 프라이버시 문제로 인해 EMR 시스템에 기반을 둔 전자건강기록(Electronic Health Record, EHR) 시스템 또한 개인 프라이버시 침해의 위험이 존재하게 된다. 따라서 의료정보의 프라이버시 보호를 위해 부당한 고용 차별 보험 차별 사회적 차별로 연결될 수 있는 개인 의료정보의 유출방지, 타인에게 알려지고 싶지 않은 개인 의료정보가 무단으로 거래되지 않는 것을 보장해야 한다. 이를 위해 본 논문에서는 의무기록의 익명화를 통해 환자와 의무기록 간의 관계를 제거하는 여러 방법들을 소개한다.

In medical Institution, Electronic Health Record (EHR) is "must access information" to medical staff considering it as medical information. However, this unnecessary exploration of personal information must be treated confidentially because the information is highly related to other's private concerns. It is necessary that medical workers should be also restricted to their access to EHR depending on their roles and duties. As the result, this article explains that "EHR access control will be executed by differentiating authorized medical staff from non medical-related staff as well as EHR access will be only permitted to authorized medical staff depending on their work status conditions. By using Advanced RBAC model on medical situation, we expect to minimize unnecessary leak of EHR information; especially, emergency medical care is needed, access control is highly required depending on a person in charge of the cases or not, and restricted medical information defined by the patient one-self is only allowed to be accessed.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to develop predictive models for pressure ulcer incidence using electronic health record (EHR) data and to compare their predictive validity performance indicators with that of the Braden Scale used in the study hospital. Methods: A retrospective case-control study was conducted in a tertiary teaching hospital in Korea. Data of 202 pressure ulcer patients and 14,705 non-pressure ulcer patients admitted between January 2015 and May 2016 were extracted from the EHRs. Three predictive models for pressure ulcer incidence were developed using logistic regression, Cox proportional hazards regression, and decision tree modeling. The predictive validity performance indicators of the three models were compared with those of the Braden Scale. Results: The logistic regression model was most efficient with a high area under the receiver operating characteristics curve (AUC) estimate of 0.97, followed by the decision tree model (AUC 0.95), Cox proportional hazards regression model (AUC 0.95), and the Braden Scale (AUC 0.82). Decreased mobility was the most significant factor in the logistic regression and Cox proportional hazards models, and the endotracheal tube was the most important factor in the decision tree model. Conclusion: Predictive validity performance indicators of the Braden Scale were lower than those of the logistic regression, Cox proportional hazards regression, and decision tree models. The models developed in this study can be used to develop a clinical decision support system that automatically assesses risk for pressure ulcers to aid nurses.

Purpose: The usability, user satisfaction, and impact of electronic nursing record (ENR) systems were investigated. Methods: This mixed-method research was performed as a time-motion (TM) study and a survey which were carried out at six hospitals between August and November 2013. The TM study involved 108 nurses from medical, surgical, and intensive care units at each hospital, plus an additional 48 nurses who served as nonparticipating observers. In the survey, 1879 volunteer nurses completed the Impact of ENR Systems Scale, the System Usability Scale, and a global satisfaction scale. Qualitative and quantitative analyses were performed. Results: The mean scores for the ENR impact, system usability, and satisfaction were 4.28 (out of 6), 58.62 (out of 100), and 74.31 (out of 100), respectively, and they differed significantly between hospitals (F=43.43, p<.001, F=53.08 and p<.001, and F=29.13 and p<.001, respectively). A workflow fragmentation assessment revealed different patterns of ENR system use among the included hospitals. Three user characteristics-educational background, practice period, and experience of using paper records-significantly affected the system usability and satisfaction scores. Conclusion: The system quality varied widely among the ENR systems. The generally low-to-moderate levels of system usability and user satisfaction suggest many opportunities for improvement.

In this study, a model in which certification standards were added to the health information management practice program was studied and presented in order to understand the EMR certification standards implemented by the Korea Health and Medical Information Service. In the practice program, the certification standard function for patient information management was added to the health information management education system to practice and understand patient information management that corresponds to the functional standard of the EMR certification system. The EMR certification standard practice program for patient information management is composed of the following certification standards. registration number and personal information management, treatment reservation schedule management, personal information revision history management, identification of people with the same name, integrated management of multiple registration numbers, patient search by identification information, patient search by health care type, surgical procedure consent record and inquiry, record/inquiry of consent form for personal information use, display of life-sustaining medical decision information, registration/inquiry of external medical institution documents, registration and inquiry of external examination results. In this way, by operating and practicing the functions of the health information system according to the certification standards, it is possible to understand and practice the certification standards and details of patient information management in the functional area of the certification standards. In addition, since the function of the EMR certification standard can be checked, it will be possible to improve the management ability of the electronic medical record system of the health information manager in the medical institution.
