  • 헬스케어는 정보통신기술을 활용하여 원거리에서 대상자들의 건강상태에 대한 모니터링과 홈 기반의 보건의료 서비스를 제공하는 것이라 할 수 있다. 따라서 헬스케어 서비스는 응급상황 대처를 위한 경보서비스와, 진료자 및 가족에게 대상자와 댁내 환경을 모니터링 할 수 있는 원격지원 서비스로 분류할 수 있다. 여기서, 일반적인 유선 기반의 고정형 생체계측 시스템에서는 두 가지 서비스를 위해서, 실시간으로 높은 신뢰성을 갖는 데이터를 전송하는데 한계가 있다. 그러므로 대상자가 공간적으로 구속을 받지 않고 자유롭게 이동하면서 생체신호 계측 및 응급경보가 가능하도록, 무선 네트워크 환경에서 구현되는 휴대용 헬스케어 시스템을 구현하고자 한다.

  • Workplace violence (WPV) is an increasing cause of concern around the globe, and healthcare organizations are no exception. Nurses may be subject to all kinds of workplace violence due to their frontline position in healthcare settings. The purpose of this systematic review is to identify and consider different interventions that aim to decrease the magnitude/prevalence of workplace violence against nurses. The standard method by Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA, 2009) has been used to collect data and assess methodological quality. Altogether, twenty-six studies are included in the review. The intervention procedures they report on can be grouped into three categories: stand-alone trainings designed to educate nurses; more structured education programs, which are broader in scope and often include opportunities to practice skills learned during the program; multicomponent interventions, which often include organizational changes, such as the introduction of workplace violence reporting systems, in addition to workplace violence training for nurses. By comparing the findings, a clear picture emerges; while standalone training and structured education programs can have a positive impact, the impact is unfortunately limited. In order to effectively combat workplace violence against nurses, healthcare organizations must implement multicomponent interventions, ideally involving all stakeholders.

  • As technologies develop, the digital health sector is gradually expanding. Internationally, the global summit for Digital Health named Global Digital Health Partnership (GDHP) was launched in 2018. Many countries are participating in GDHP and share their policy experiences on digital health and find the ways to cooperate with participating countries (13 countries, including South Korea, and Hong Kong). This article reviewed the international trends in digital health policy environment and evidence assessment focusing on GDHP activities, and derived implications for health technology assessment of digital health. Consequently, to assess the intervention effects of digital health is very complex and the assessment should be considered multidimensional aspects (social, clinical, and technical). In addition the patient experience should be assessed qualitatively. Health technology assessment (HTA) should assess the effect of digital health policies to changes in health care systems resulting from the application of advanced technologies related to the 4th Industrial Revolution. Digital health is also related to new HTA, HTA of existing technologies, and R&D on the promising health technology. Therefore, it is necessary to review the trends of the technology's management policy consistently through the HTA of digital health.

  • This study empirically investigates the factors influencing the intention to accept mobile technology in Saudi healthcare service delivery using the extended unified theory of acceptance and use of technology model (UTAUT) with perceived reliability and price value. Accordingly, a conceptual model combining behavioral constructs with those linked to the technology acceptance model is developed. This model aims to identify factors that predict patients' acceptance of mobile technology healthcare service delivery. The developed model is examined using responses obtained from a survey on 545 participants receiving healthcare services in Saudi Arabia. Thus, we have conceptualized the developed model and validated seven hypotheses involving key constructs. Results suggest that performance expectancy, effort expectancy, social influence, facilitating conditions, price value, and perceived reliability are direct predictors of user behavior to accept mobile technology in healthcare service delivery. The results provide empirical evidence to the literature on the effect of facilitating conditions and effort expectancy on mobile health (mHealth) adoption. The results show that the COVID-19 pandemic has significantly increased the adoption of mHealth services in Saudi Arabia.

  • This study aims to compare the healthcare status of South Korea and other member of the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) using the OECD health statistics 2021. We used the position value for relative comparison (PARC) index to measure the five elements of the healthcare system, demand, supply, accessibility, quality, and cost. For the statistical analysis, Mann-Kendall test was performed to examine the trend of the PARC values from 2000 to the most recent year. The results showed that supply, demand, accessibility, and quality were above median than the OECD median and the cost was below median. In sectors such as primary care, health employment and mental health care were below median average. With these result, necessary steps for a sustainable healthcare should be taken into effort by policy makers.

  • Information technology plays an important role in healthcare. The cloud has several applications in the fields of education, social media and medicine. But the advantage of the cloud for medical reasons is very appropriate, especially given the large volume of data generated by healthcare organizations. As in increasingly health organizations adopting towards electronic health records in the cloud which can be accessed around the world for various health issues regarding references, healthcare educational research and etc. Cloud computing has many advantages, such as "flexibility, cost and energy savings, resource sharing and rapid deployment". However, despite the significant benefits of using the cloud computing for health IT, data security, privacy, reliability, integration and portability are some of the main challenges and obstacles for its implementation. Health data are highly confidential records that should not be made available to unauthorized persons to protect the security of patient information. In this paper, we discuss the privacy and security requirement of EHS as well as privacy and security issues of EHS and also focus on a comprehensive review of the current and existing literature on Electronic health that uses a variety of approaches and procedures to handle security and privacy issues. The strengths and weaknesses of some of these methods were mentioned. The significance of security issues in the cloud computing environment is a challenge.

  • 치료·공급자 중심의 의료서비스에서 예방·소비자 중심의 서비스로 패러다임이 변화하고 있는 시점에 보건의료와 ICT융합기술의 접목은 4차 산업혁명 안에서 디지털 헬스케어 산업에 대한 관심을 고조시키고 있다. 디지털 헬스케어에는 건강, 영양, 운동, 및 환자관리 등이 포함되며, 디지털 헬스케어 산업에는 개인 건강 및 의료 정보를 제공할 수 있는 의료기기, 의료정보시스템 및 헬스케어 플랫폼 등과 관련된 의료 및 IT 산업의 융합으로 요약된다. 고령화 및 만성질환의 증가에 따른 사회적 요구로 인해 우리나라에서도 4차 산업혁명 안에서 디지털 헬스케어는 중요한 정책으로 다뤄지고 있다. 디지털 헬스케어 산업이 인류의 수명연장과 삶의 질 증진에 기여하기 위해서는 관련 인프라와 법률적 제도 정비 및 정책 마련 등이 시급하며 덧붙여 중요한 것은 디지털 헬스케어 산업을 이끌어갈 인재 육성을 위한 융합적 교육의 활성화가 필요하겠다. 본 연구는 4차 산업혁명 시대의 디지털 헬스케어 산업의 동향과 정부의 연구개발 정책방향에 대해 고찰하고 미래 발전 방향 및 시사점을 도출하고자 시행되었다.

  • 건강관리 시스템은 자신의 건강상태를 주기적으로 체크하여 질병의 조기발견과 예방에 도움을 주기 위한 의료정보 시스템의 일종이다. 이러한 건강관리 시스템은 신체에서 획득한 신호를 기반으로 한다. 하지만 현재 개발되어 있는 건강관리 시스템은 생체신호를 저장하는 방법과 표현법이 의료기기마다 다르며, 건강 상태를 평가하는 방법 또한 다르다. 이는 시스템간의 상호운용성 결핍, 소프트웨어 개발 비용의 증대, 획일화된 시스템의 부재라는 단점을 가져온다. 이에 본 논문에서는 메타모텔을 기반으로 건강관리 시스템을 개발한다. 이를 위하여 생체신호 데이터를 HL7의 표준 메타모델기반으로 표현 및 저장하고, 건강에 대한 위험요소를 평가하기 위해 웰니스지표 정의 및 데이터 추출을 수학적 명세언어인 OCL을 사용한다. 또한 OSGi기반으로 컴포넌트를 구현하고 조립하여 다양한 디바이스 및 시스템의 확장을 쉽도록 한다. 메타모델기반으로 생체 데이터를 표현함으로써 시스템간의 상호운용성을 확보할 수 있으며, OCL을 사용하여 웰니스지표를 정의함으로써 건강 상태 평가방법의 표준화를 유도하고, 명확한 명세가 가능하다는 장점을 가진다.

  • Today, the medical information system has evolved in the way of integrated healthcare IT information systems. Therefore, it is trying to build advanced U-Healthcare service. Though the U-Healthcare environments is exchanged the information between systems in many cases, however since the each system is different, the integration and exchange of data is difficult. To overcome this problem, in this paper it proposes that we suggests a possible DBaaS(DataBase as a Service) for the heterogeneous integration of medical information management and data exchange. First, the proposed system builds DBaaS cloud by integrating the meta-DB Schema level and DB Schema for each hospital. And, the mapping the schema data and the existing hospital information system is possible using the International Standard HL7. By applying the proposed method to the hospital system, it comes true the efficient exchange of information between the patients, doctors, staffs through the data mapping of the one to multi-system.
