8. COMPUTERIZED CLINICAL ALERT
Ordering supplies, tests,
meals, and services.
• Scheduling appointments
and staff shifts.
• Insurance and billing
accuracy.
Practice management
• Tracks caseloads and
healthcare benefit
eligibility.
• Manages payer reporting
requirements and service
provider details
Case management
• Collects, stores, and manages
critical patient data.
• Integrates data from physiologic
monitoring systems, infusion
pumps, ventilators, and other
devices.
Critical Care Information System (CCIS)
OR
Medical Information BUS
• Process, store and integrate
physiologic and diagnostic
information of patient
• Present deviations or abnormalities
by setting an alarm
• Analyze and present data trends in
graphical form
Physiologic Monitoring System
1.) • Bedside monitoring system acquires
data such as heart rate from the ECG,
parameters from arterial and
pulmonary arterial invasive blood
pressure, temperatures, noninvasive
blood pressure and arterial saturation
and heart rate from pulse oximetry
Vital Signs monitoring
Record and integrate data on patient vital signs
Clinical Document
• Provide access to vital patient
information thus supporting clinical
decision making
• Electronic devices at patient’s bedside that
sources of important clinical information
Decision Support
1.) Control the dosages and drips given to patients
2.) Allows nursing professions to check on patients, even if they’re on the move or busy helping someone else
1.) Automated IV pumps
2.) Portable Monitors
1.) Can help nurses track movement, weight and even vitals. Can also play a major role in keeping patients safe and comfortable during a long hospital stay
2.) Devices that help track heart rates, exercise, sleep, respiration and more. They are helping people take their health into their own hands
1.) Smart Beds
2.) Wearable Devices
Bedside computer terminal access can facilitate real time charting and increase nursing time at bedside
Computer on Wheels
✅ Online Fully integrated medication
✅ Significant time reduction associated with transcription medications to paper
✅ decrease transcription error
Medication Management
Barcode on patients bands and medication packaging helps to double check that the right medication is being given to the right patient at the right time
Barcode Technology
Eliminates handwriting errors, reduces verbal orders and improves patient safety
Interdisciplinary Plan of Care
can be used in conjunction with the
hospital pharmacy. A system design is
created to alert both pharmacy and
health staff when two or more drug
prescriptions are incompatible
Computerized Clinical Alert
System alerts the nurse immediately if any inconsistencies or potential problem exist
• Online and integrated Rules and Alerts
• Drug allergy alerts based on order entry
• Drug- drug interaction alerts
• Alerts for abnormal lab values and vital signs
• Alerts for new orders
• Alert for order renewals
• Alert for scheduled patient events
Primary focus of community health information system
1.) Preventing, identifying, investigating and eliminating communicable health problems
2.) Accessibility of data and information, through communication
3.) Educating and empowering individuals to adopt healthy lifestyle
The main use of computers in the community settings are
1.) Gathering epidemiological and administrative statistics
2.) Patient appointments - Identification system
3.) Monitoring of programs in the community
4.) Documentation
5.) PPGIS / Community Mapping
• Monthly report, no of birth
immunization, communicable
diseases, deaths, delivery
• Field workers engaged in monitoring of epidemics, outbreaks and analyzing the morbidity trend of their village
gathering epidemiological and administrative statistics
To enhance the emergency preparedness and response system, a special system such as national electronic diseases surveillance system can be coupled
Community Electronic disease surveillance system
People can have access to the details of dispensaries, diagnostics centers, medical shop and hospital in the locality, medical colleges, rehabilitation centers
Patient appointments identification system
1.) Facilitates effective monitoring of programs
2.) Health statistically survey is used to collect quantitive information about items in population to establish certain information from the obtained data
1.) Health information system
2.) Computer based survey system
In primary health center it is designated to lessen paperwork responsibility, get better data accuracy and facilitates village health
EX: EMR
Documentation
Electronic Medical Records
✅Increased efficiency
✅Improved Documentation
✅Improved quality care
✅Improved Security
✅Reduced documentation expenses
An example of a local EMR applied in the public health setting in the_____
~ The first electronic medical record system in the Philippines
Community Health information and tracking system (CHITS)
1.) It is a tool that can be used to tell a story about what is happening in our communities
2.) Can empower the public by providing opportunities to have a lasting positive influence on their community
1.) Public participatory information system (PPIGS)
2.) Community Mapping
Covers a wide range of health care services that are provided for patients who are not admitted overnight to a hospital
Ambulatory Care system
4 sub categories of ambulatory care
1.) Wellness
2.) Diagnosis
3.) Treatment
4.) Rehabilitation
Mostly for prevention and basic medical care. They include doctor’s clinic such as primary care as well as counseling centers for mental health
Wellness
Provided on their own, or as part of a wellness or treatment program. They include X-rays, lab and blood test, MRIs and screening for various cancers and illnesses
Diagnoses
1.) These Include same day surgery centers, substance abuse clinics, chemotherapy
2.) Includes post-operative therapies, occupational and physical therapy and rehabilitation for drug abuse
1.) Treatment
2.) Rehabilitation
Other systems allow for data
collection outside of the clinic
using a range of mobile
technology such as Internet-
based patient portal
websites, mobile technology and
text messaging, and
computerized telephone surveys
Computerized prescriber order entry
• In collaboration with the
government is providing
emergency response services
which enables distress calls
• It reaches out to rescue
people involved in critical
accidents and emergencies
Emergency Management Research intitute
• Through the effective use of
NHIS it will link all hospital,
practices and health
practitioners as well as students
in the country through the used
of computer-based
communication channels
National health information system
To enhance the emergency
preparedness and response system, a
special system such as national
electronic disease surveillance system
can be coupled and integrated to
national health information system
National electronic disease surveillance system
- Used for the daily and weekly
report of Emerging and Re-
emerging Diseases. - To reduce morbidity and
mortality through an
institutionalized, functional
integrated disease surveillance
and response system
nationwid
Philippine integrated disease surveillance and response (PIDSR)
Components of PIDSR
Category 1 = Immediately reportable disease/ syndromes / events
Category 2 = Weekly reportable diseases / Syndrome/ Events
- Compliments existing indicator- based diseases surveillance (PIDSR) in
detecting events with added advantage of rapid reporting, greater geographic
spread and relatively low cost
(ESR)
Event based Surveillance and Response
- Detect early unusual increase of communicable and non-communicable
conditions related to emergencies and disasters - Monitor health trends for appropriate public health action
Surveillance in post extreme emergencies and disasters (SPEED)
