  1. 1. Duplicate systems : investigating unintended consequences of information technology in organizations

    Author : Henrik Wimelius; Jonny Holmström; Lars Mathiassen; Jan Damsgaard; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; IS and organization; adoption of IT; assimilation of IT; change; dialectics; paradox; duplicate systems; contradiction; unintended consequences; information systems; Informatics; Informatik;

    Abstract : The organizational consequences of information technology (IT) constitutes a core focus in information systems (IS) research. The relationship between organizations and IT has received considerable attention by IS researchers in order to develop knowledge related to how and why organizations and IT are related. READ MORE

  2. 2. Improving healthcare information systems : A key to evidence based medicine

    Author : Hanife Rexhepi; Rose-Mharie Åhlfeldt; Anne Persson; Karin Hedström; Högskolan i Skövde; []
    Keywords : NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Process orientation; Knowledge management; Healthcare; Evidence based medicine; Information Systems; Informationssystem IS ;

    Abstract : Delivering good quality care is a complex endeavor that is highly dependent on patient information and medical knowledge. When decisions about the care of a patient are made, they must, as far as possible, be based on research-derived evidence rather than on clinical skills and experience alone. READ MORE

  3. 3. BRIDGING THE INFORMATION GAP : Supporting Evidence-Based Medicine and Shared Decision-Making through Information Systems

    Author : Hanife Rexhepi; Peter Bath; Högskolan i Skövde; []
    Keywords : NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Information Systems; Informationssystem IS ;

    Abstract : Practicing evidence-based medicine (EBM) and shared decision-making (SDM)along the patient process is important in today's healthcare environment, as thesemodels of care offer a way to improve quality and safety of care, patient satisfaction,and reduce costs. EBM is the conscientious and judicious use of current best medicalevidence in conjunction with clinical expertise. READ MORE

  4. 4. Disease surveillance systems

    Author : Baki Cakici; Magnus Boman; Stefan Johansson; KTH; []
    Keywords : MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURVETENSKAP; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; disease surveillance; syndromic surveillance; outbreak detection; health informatics; computer science; Health and medical services in society; Hälso- och sjukvård i samhället; Epidemiology; Epidemiologi; Computer and systems science; Data- och systemvetenskap;

    Abstract : Recent advances in information and communication technologies have made the development and operation of complex disease surveillance systems technically feasible, and many systems have been proposed to interpret diverse data sources for health-related signals. Implementing these systems for daily use and efficiently interpreting their output, however, remains a technical challenge. READ MORE

  5. 5. Design, Development, and Adoption of Ontology-Driven Clinical Software

    Author : Marie Gustafsson; Högskolan i Skövde; []
    Keywords : NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIKVETENSKAP; Information technology; Informationsteknologi; Teknik; Technology; online communities; medical informatics; oral medicine; ontology engineering; Semantic Web; knowledge management;

    Abstract : This thesis addresses how ontology-driven applications can be designed and developed to support distributed clinical knowledge management in oral medicine, where geographically dispersed practitioners need to share practical clinical knowledge. A step in developing tools for knowledge management is representing knowledge in a machine-processable and sharable manner. READ MORE
