Abstract

Recently, many of hospitals have hurried to computerize the resulting data from medical devices, in order to introduce Electric Medical Record(EMR). In terms of the linkage between medical devices and hospital information systems, however, many difficulties have arisen due to some reasons such as the variety of prescription input, the format difference of the resulting data sheet, and the interface difference between medical devices from different companies. To solve these problems, many researches on standardization of the resulting data of medical devices have been performed. In this study, the linkage between hospital information systems and resulting datum in Electrocardiogram(ECG) generating biosignal waveform was tested by applying Medical waveform Format Encoding Rules(MFER) Version 1.02, which has more advantages than existing global standard. MFER viewer, in addition, was made to display the resulting data on a screen. The MFER viewer was tested and compared to the existing Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG) Viewer. The results showed that this method is more effective in the interface the data storage and application, because of simplicity and easiness in data applications. And the results show that the MFER is convenience and effective for physician. It is considered that the role of MFER as the interface in biosignal waveform including Electrocardiogram medical devices would expand in the near future.
