Lesson 11 HIS

The document discusses two types of hospital information systems - Cardiology Information Systems (CIS) and Radiology Information Systems (RIS). CIS stores and retrieves cardiology images and evolves from mainframe to networked systems allowing remote access and integration. It provides ease of access, workflow flexibility, and enhanced comparability of cardiology results. RIS manages radiology images and associated data, tracks patients and orders from admission to discharge, and supports scheduling, reporting, image tracking, and billing functions. Both systems integrate with electronic health records for comprehensive patient views and management of the clinical workflow.

Lesson 11: Other Hospital Information System

Cardiology Information System


• storage & retrieval of cardiology-centric images
receives an order
• profiled based on the order & stored for further distribution, viewing, & long-term archiving
(Katipula & Ireland, 2013)

EVOLUTION OF CIS:
•1970 originated from mainframe environments, whose technical specifics would considered
ridiculous
•1980 modular systems that emphasized the use of real-time applications & mini computers
became the trend •then the INTERNET > creating networks & facilitating integration
•REMOTE ACCESS & EASY RETRIEVAL

BENEFITS OF CIS:
1. Ease Of Access While Maintaining Data Security
• eliminating doctors to request different imaging results from different departments

2. Flexibility In The Workflow


• assess a wide array of information

3. Enhanced Comparability
• CIS is an essential repository of cardiology imagery results • retrieval of past data is
convenient

FUNCTIONS OF CIS:
1. Editing, Viewing And Storing Multi-Modal Cardiology Data
• computed tomography, cardiac ultrasound (echocardiography), magnetic resonance imaging
(MRI), nuclear imaging (PET & SPECT), angiography may be managed on a single platform

2. Remote Access
• use of networks & integrated info systems, coupled with the availability of the internet &
tablets, smart phones offers flexibility to CIS

3. Visualization & Reporting Capabilities


• 2 main benefits: EASE & CONSISTENCY OF REPORTING; result: real-time info retrieval

4. EHR Integration
• enhancement of QUALITY SERVICE of health professionals offers more comprehensive view

Radiology Information System


• network system used in managing imagery & associated data
• useful or tracking radiology imaging orders & billing
PACS- storage & management of medical images VNA- to manage image archives & for
record-keeping
• EASIER ACCESS with EHR > better patient experience
• Faster processing of payments; permits report

FUNCTIONS OF RIS:
1. Patient Management
• tracks entire workflow; add images, generate reports to EHRs for easy retrieval

2. Scheduling
• appointments of in & out patients

3. Patient Tracking
• patient’s radiology history from admission to discharge

4. Results Reporting
• statistical reports

5. Image Tracking
• RIS track films & assoc. data & cover the entire clinical workflow of medical enterprise

6. Billing
• record keeping & Electronic Payments
