Digital health technology and diabetes management

Diabetes care is largely dependent on patient self-management and empowerment, given that patients with diabetes must make numerous daily decisions as to what to eat, when to exercise, and determine their insulin dose and timing if required...

Exploring barriers and enablers to implementing a digital mental health crisis risk mitigation pathway in acute paediatric care: A multi-site, exploratory mixed-methods study

Objective Children and young people (CYP) presenting in mental health crisis to acute paediatric settings represent a growing clinical and system-level challenge. These environments, primarily designed for physical healthcare, frequently la...

Reducing Alert Fatigue by Sharing Low-Level Alerts With Patients and Enhancing Collaborative Decision Making Using Blockchain Technology: Scoping Review and Proposed Framework (MedAlert)

BackgroundClinical decision support (CDS) is a tool that helps clinicians in decision making by generating clinical alerts to supplement their previous knowledge and experience. However, CDS generates a high volume of irrelevant alerts, res...

Training residents in medical informatics.

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: A number of medical educators have called for an increased emphasis on medical informatics training, but few family practice residency programs have provided more than cursory teaching efforts in this area. This p...

Deep learning-based multimodal data fusion in bone tumor management: Advances in clinical decision support

Bone tumors (BTs)—including osteosarcoma, Ewing sarcoma, and chondrosarcoma—are rare but biologically complex malignancies characterized by pronounced heterogeneity in anatomical location, histological subtype, and molecular alterations. Re...

The Intellectual Structure of Health and Medical Informatics

This paper presents the results of an author co-citation analysis of the health and medical informatics discipline. It updates a smaller study that focused on health information systems. Drawing on such sub-fields as bio informatics, clinic...

Medical informatics education.

Medical Informatics is a multidisciplinary field, dealing mainly with informatics and technology applications in health care. Medical Informatics is composed from a number of sub-areas such as computer based patient record (CPR), processing...

Implementing and Evaluating a National Integrated Digital Registry and Clinical Decision Support System in Early Intervention in Psychosis Services (Early Psychosis Informatics Into Care): Co-Designed Protocol

BackgroundEarly intervention in psychosis (EIP) services are nationally mandated in England to provide multidisciplinary care to people experiencing first-episode psychosis, which disproportionately affects deprived and ethnic minority yout...

The deep learning applications in IoT-based bio- and medical informatics: a systematic literature review

Abstract Nowadays, machine learning (ML) has attained a high level of achievement in many contexts. Considering the significance of ML in medical and bioinformatics owing to its accuracy, many investigators discussed multiple solutions for ...

Integrating machine learning algorithms and explainable artificial intelligence approach for predicting patient unpunctuality in psychiatric clinics

This study addresses patient unpunctuality, a major concern affecting patient waiting time, resource utilization, and quality of care. We develop and compare four machine learning models, including multinomial logistic regression, decision ...

[Medical informatics--today and tomorrow].

The status of medical informatics, a comparatively new biomedical discipline beginning to develop in the second half of the 20th century, is described at the transition into the 21st century. The appearance of new information and communicat...

Future History: Medical Informatics in Geriatrics

With deference to Isaac Asimov's The Foundation, which is the inspiration for this series, we briefly describe the "present history" of medical informatics (the application of information technology in medicine) in geriatrics, and then proj...

Medical Informatics: Concepts and Applications

Medical Informatics is a developing body of knowledge concerned with the use of information and communication technology in support of medical research, education and also for promoting health care delivery. The field focuses on the biomedi...

Argumentation approaches for explanaible AI in medical informatics

Artificial Intelligence algorithms are powerful in performing accurate predictions, but they are often considered black boxes as they do not provide any explanation about how outputs are derived from inputs or why a decision is taken. There...

Medical Informatics and Pediatrics

Decision support is an important area of medical informatics research. Computer-based decision-support tools facilitate diagnosis and the management of patients after a diagnosis has been established. Diagnostic decision-support tools, such...
