Goal: Multidisciplinary e - Health Services

The general goal of our project is to conceive and implement UnifiedInformation System Services, based on multimedia applications,including portable record structures, shared/virtual workstations,creating a multidisciplinary e-health services space providing secureglobal access to medical information. Application cases are beingidentified concerning shared workspaces, security, database and

imageengineering. Our project deals with an important segment of the esociety: HealthCare Information System, but all ICT results might beused in other application areas too. These tasks generate

subprojects,aiming to fulfil the general requirements of the global strategy.

General challenges in the General challenges in the Hungarian Healthcare Information Hungarian Healthcare Information

SystemsSystems

• To improve the public health• To enhance the efficiency of the healthcare

financial subsystem• To eliminate the regional differences in the

quality of services

Our main development considerations

• Using standard solutions• Portable record structures / virtual workplaces• Electronic document management• Secure web-based multimedia database accessed via

Internet• Development of real-time image analysis algorithms• Implementation with real-time hardware-software• SmartCard technology increases data security,

confidentiality and portability• Multi-level security and access (GP, patient,

administrative staff, etc.)• Extensive use of networked imaging tools• Suitable mathematical interpretation of clinical

objectives

Healthcare Information

What kind of data is demanded?

Standard data types:

•Patient acceptance / release

•Diagnostics

•Treatment

•Information for patient

•Quality Improvement

•Management

•etc.

Page 10: the project started in August 2001 Project consortium members:

Portability

Patient Record stored in a given Source Information System is considered to be portable only if it can be transported to another Target Information System preserving integrity, and it can be indexed and processed in a similar way, compared with other records generated in the Target Information System itself.

NOT

Limitation 1.

Man - Machine - Machine - Man

BUT

Machine - Machine

Page 12: the project started in August 2001 Project consortium members:

Limitation 2.

We do NOT deal withthe multilanguage problem

Page 13: the project started in August 2001 Project consortium members:

Limitation 3.

Portability is NOT a data security problem

Page 14: the project started in August 2001 Project consortium members:

Limitation 4.

NOT „everybody with everybody” type communication

HL7≠P&P

Aiming to interpret a HL7 message, a lot of agreements are neededamong sender and receiver type parties. E.g.:

•technical type•work-flow type

A further step

The Completeness Criteria:

„Every standard message has to contain (or at least has to refer to )all information necessary for receiver information system aiming to use the message in accordance with it’s specific system functionalities

New trends in Medical InformaticsNew trends in Medical Informatics

• The advent of unified healthcare information systems and portability of medical records increases the need for security

• The use of the new tools in medical diagnosis multiplies the role of the image type data

Page 24: the project started in August 2001 Project consortium members:

Protection principles of healthcare Protection principles of healthcare datadata

According to the law in Hungary the owner of the medical data is the patient

It is not allowed to collect sensitive medical data in a central medical database

Image without personal data is not sensitive anymore but still useful: we may use them for diagnostical, educational, scientific and statistical purposes.

Doctors generally demand the original lossless image.

Page 25: the project started in August 2001 Project consortium members:

Conventional vs. IT-based image management

• Film- / paper based • Non-standard, Hospital or Department - specific protocoles• Manual generation of patient identifier (exchange of name, wrong

data entry, etc. possible)--------------------------------------------------------------------------• Hierarchical access• Time stamp, audit trail• Data grouping• Backup and archiving• Automatic generation of unique global patient identifier• Interoperability• Data integrity• Information retrieval and compression• Platform / vendor independent image representation• General protocol for image-related data

Page 26: the project started in August 2001 Project consortium members:

Relevant standards

• HISA – Healthcare Information System Architecture• DICOM - Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine• NEMA - National Electrical Manufacturers Association PS 3.1 – PS 3.12• HL7 – Health Level Seven, an Application Protocol for Electronic Data

Exchange in Healthcare Environment• CEN TC251 – Comite Europeen de Normalisation, Technical Committee

251• PACS - Picture Archiving and Communication Systems• HIPAA - Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act• Dig35 – Metadata standards• The Dublin Core Metadata Initiative

Page 27: the project started in August 2001 Project consortium members:

Problems with standards

• Overlapping or missing parts in standards created for networked imaging

• No general archiving or indexing solutions are offered • Conformity with standards doesn’t mean interoperability! • At least there is no language – specific problem!• Security, image integrity

Page 28: the project started in August 2001 Project consortium members:

Medical image has almost no value without related data

Related data types:• Patient data• Context of image acquisition• Parameters of image acquisition• Primary evaluation of image• Parameters of visualisation• Administrative data• etc.

What might be an appropriate „electronic clip” to connect visual and related textual data?

Page 29: the project started in August 2001 Project consortium members:

Image integrity verification

• A new watermark-based scenario is proposed• Brief unique digest is extracted from image and related

data• Trusted Third Party is involved• Time stamping• Global identifier• Even most sophisticated attacks can be detected

Page 30: the project started in August 2001 Project consortium members:

Implementation - design considerations

• Portability increases the need for security• The importance of medical images exponentially

increases in diagnosis and therapy!• IT adaptation and implementation of results

achieved in the previous phases• Use of up-to-date platforms (XML, UML, RDB,…) for

portable patient record structure modelling• Adaptable, example - like system design

Page 31: the project started in August 2001 Project consortium members:

Implementation - current status

– Buildup of the pilot project’s technical background

– Realization of the portable record structure• data model• communication protokol• data transfer and storage

– Implementation of different security solutions

Page 32: the project started in August 2001 Project consortium members:

Implementation - next steps

In the frame of pilot applications:– Modul tests– Integration tests– Functional tests
