Clinical decision support system for the healthy marriage program
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2015)
This paper discusses the replacement of the traditional laboratory premarital screening in Saudi Arabia and other countries that follow the Islamic laws "Healthy Marriage Program" with Clinical Decision Support Systems ...
Analysis of the information needs of primary care physicians in an electronic health record (EHR)
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2012)
BACKGROUND: With the increase in the adoption of electronic health records (EHR) across the US, clinicians are experiencing information overload. In order to address the problem of information overload, an assessment of ...
Implementation of a fuzzy rule-based decision support system for the immunohistochemical diagnosis of small B-cell lymphomas
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2009)
Integrating the massive amount of new genomic information into medical practice will require new approaches to knowledge management. This need is particularly acute in surgical pathology where the evaluation of diagnostic ...
The role of electronic medical record in nation care delivery, development: case study on Ghana
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2007)
Electronic medical record (EMR) is not only being welcomed by health care providers as a way to improve care delivery, but also serves as a catalyst for development. The purpose of this study is to examine benefits of EMR ...
Assisted living facilities residents' and relatives' preferences for family access to their medical and personal information
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2010)
The purpose of this study is to explore privacy preferences of elderly residents and their relatives at assisted living facilities. In the past year, there has been a large increase in the interest and concept of accessing ...
