Avaliação da qualidade da informação em websites de clínicas e consultórios odontológicos / Assessment of quality information on clinics and dental offices websites

Zilson Magalhães Malheiros 05 July 2011 (has links)
A internet passa a ter uma grande importância na comunicação em odontologia e a qualidade da informação é um dos aspectos fundamentais para a sua correta utilização. O objetivo desse trabalho foi avaliar a qualidade da informação na Internet em websites de clínicas e consultórios odontológicos. O trabalho foi dividido em duas etapas. A primeira consistiu em realizar um estudo hermenêutico da legislação e documentos pertinentes. A segunda etapa teve por objetivo verificar a qualidade da informação disponível nos websites selecionados. Para realizar a análise hermenêutica foram elaboradas 39 (trinta e nove) questões com dúvidas sobre a divulgação de assuntos odontológicos. O questionário foi enviado ao Conselho Regional de Odontologia do Estado de São Paulo. Foi revisada a legislação pertinente sobre o assunto. Para avaliar a qualidade da informação foi realizado um estudo transversal. A População do estudo foi composta por 100 websites de clínicas e consultórios odontológicos da região da Grande São Paulo. Tomou-se por base os critérios estabelecidos pela Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ) em conjunto com o Health Information Technology Institute (HITI) e o Código de Ética Odontológica (2006), resultando em 25 (vinte e cinco) questões que avaliaram a qualidade da informação nos websites de clínicas e consultórios odontológicos. A qualidade da informação nos websites se mostrou regular, com 53,68% do total de pontos possíveis, apresentando baixa qualidade principalmente nos indicadores de atualização (ausência da data de atualização), hierarquia de evidência (ausência de referências bibliográficas), avisos institucionais (ausência de alertas sobre limitação da informação), perfil do site (ausência dos termos de sigilo e privacidade das informações), ausência de mecanismo de busca interno, ausência de fóruns de discussão e ausência do número de inscrição no Conselho dos profissionais mencionados, que contribuíram para a redução de credibilidade dos websites. Dessa forma, a avaliação indica que os websites de clínicas e consultórios precisam ser melhorados e que os órgãos competentes devem dar mais atenção para a qualidade da informação apresentados na Internet. Sugere-se para futuras pesquisas a avaliação da qualidade da informação a partir da importância dada por pacientes, cirurgiões-dentistas e desenvolvedores de websites com os critérios apresentados no trabalho. O objetivo é gerar uma contínua melhoria desse importante sistema de informação, contribuindo para o desenvolvimento do relacionamento entre pacientes e cirurgiões-dentistas. / Nowadays, the Internet has a great importance in communication in dentistry and quality of information is a fundamental for its correct use. The objective of this study was to evaluate the information quality on the Internet, in websites of clinics and dental offices. The work was divided into two stages. The first one was to perform a hermeneutic study of legislation and relevant documents. The second step was to verify the information quality available in selected websites. At the hermeneutic analysis, 39 (thirty nine) issues with questions were made based on the disclosure of dental subjects. The questionnaire was sent to the São Paulo Regional Council of Dentistry. It was reviewed the relevant legislation about the subject. To evaluate the information quality, a cross-sectional study was made. The study population consisted of 100 clinic websites and dental offices in the metropolis of São Paulo. It was based on the criteria established by the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ) in with the Health Information Technology Institute (HITI) and the Code of Ethics in Dentistry (2006), resulting in 25 (twenty five) questions that evaluated quality of information on the websites of clinics and dental offices. The quality of information on websites showed regular, with 53,68% of the total possible points, with low quality indicators, especially in the update (no date of update), hierarchy of evidence (references absence), institutional warnings (alerts absence about limitation of information), the site profile (absence of the information confidentiality and privacy terms), no internal search engine, no discussion forums and absence of the registration number of the professionals mentioned in the Council, which contributed to the reduction of websites credibility. So, the evaluation indicates that the clinics websites and dental offices need to be improved and that the competent institutions should give more attention to the information quality presented on the Internet. It is suggested for future researches to evaluate the information quality from the importance given by patients, dentists and website developers with criteria presented into this study. Its objective is to improve continuously this important system of information, contributing with the development of the relationship between patients and dentists.

Context: Due to rapid increase in the population of elderly people, sharing healthcare information has become an essential requirement for the development of e-health system. By conducting a research in e-health and cloud computing we have explored the advantages and disadvantages of sharing healthcare information for elderly people through cloud computing. Objectives: The main purpose of this research is to investigate the suitability of cloud computing to share healthcare information. The study is conducted by exploring the advantages and disadvantages of cloud computing for e-Health systems. Investigating a suitable cloud computing platform is also one of the objectives of this research. Methods: In order to identify and get deeper understanding of these issues, we have performed literature review of E-health, EHI and Cloud Computing technologies and we have develop a prototype application as experiment. Results: Based on the finding of literature review, we came to know that E-health was huge field. It needs a huge infrastructure to establish. The healthcare information in e-health requires quick and easy sharing. In EHI research, we defined EHI and find reasons for sharing elderly healthcare information. At cloud computing research, we knew the concept of cloud computing and found out advantages and disadvantages of implementing e-health in cloud computing. From literature review, we developed sharing application which was used to share EHI in cloud computing. In experiment, we proved our supposition and discussed advantages and disadvantages of sharing EHI in cloud computing by using Google App Engine (GAE). Conclusions: We conclude that cloud computing meets the requirements of sharing EHI, but it also has some limitations due to its architecture and network condition. In this research we have identified further research area that can help in enhancing security and privacy in cloud environment.

Ambiente de Data Warehousing para integração de dados de saúde pública em âmbito de gestão regional / Data warehousing environment for public healthcare data integration on the regional management scope

Samuel Zanferdini Oliva 08 June 2015 (has links)
Estudos relacionados ao aperfeiçoamento na gestão de saúde descrevem casos de sucesso com soluções utilizando a implementação de Data Warehouse (DW) como um recurso para facilitar e melhorar a qualidade dos dados para gestão na área de saúde pública. O Mapa de Saúde consiste na descrição da distribuição geográfica de recursos humanos, de ações e de serviços de saúde ofertados pelo SUS e pela iniciativa privada, considerando-se o desempenho aferido a partir dos indicadores de saúde do sistema. A gestão em saúde pública carece de recursos que auxiliem efetivamente os processos de análise e tomada de decisão. O objetivo deste trabalho é contribuir para sanar esta carência, a partir do desenvolvimento de um ferramental de apoio à decisão fundamentado em bases de dados de indicadores de saúde determinados pelo Mapa de Saúde. Este ferramental consiste no planejamento e na implementação de um ambiente de Data Warehousing para integração de bases de dados legadas, oriundas dos documentos gerados pelas Redes Regionais de Atenção à Saúde (RRAS) e coletadas pela Secretaria de Saúde do Estado de São Paulo, fornecendo aos usuários gestores os recursos necessários para a geração de consultas ad-hoc complexas com flexibilidade e rapidez sobre os dados contemplados pelo Mapa de Saúde. As fases do processo de desenvolvimento são sete, a saber: (1) Análise dos dados definidos pelo Mapa de Saúde e disponibilizados pelas fontes públicas; (2) Modelagem e implementação de um banco de dados integrador; (3) Modelagem dimensional e implementação do DW; (4) Criação do processo de extração, transformação e carga; (5) Geração dos metadados e configuração do servidor de análises; (6) Análises; (7) Testes. Como resultado, todas as fases de desenvolvimento do ambiente de Data Warehousing foram cumpridas, bem como o procedimento de avaliação junto aos gestores. De acordo com a avaliação, o sistema cumpre de forma satisfatória o seu objetivo de tomar o processo de gestão de saúde mais efetivo, flexível e produtivo. / Studies related to the enhancement on health management describe instances of success with solutions concerning the Data Warehouse (DW) implementation as a resource to facilitate and improve data quality for management on health public area. The Health Map consists of the geographical description of human resources, actions and services distribution of health offered by the Brazilian National Health System and by the private sector, taking into account the existent installed capacity, the investment, and the performance assessed from system\'s health indicators. The goal of this project is to develop a decision support toolset based on health indicators databases defined by the Health Map. This toolset consists of the planning and the Data Warehousing environrnent implementation for the integration of legacy databases, arising from documents generated by the Regional Health Care Networks and collected by the São Paulo State Health Department, hence providing for users a necessary suite of tools for complex ad-hoc queries generation with flexibility and celerity over the data contemplated by the Health Map. Development process steps are seven, namely: (1) Analysis of data defined by the Health Map and available by public sources; (2) Integrator Database modeling and implementation; (3) DW dimensional modeling; (4) Creation of the extraction, transformation and load process; (5) Metadata generation and analysis server configuration; (6) Analysis; (7) Tests. As a result, the Data Warehousing environment development process steps were completely fulfilled, as well as tests and evaluation steps along with the health managers.

Investigating factors that hinder the adoption and use of primary healthcare information systems (phcis) in the western cape of South Africa

Nkwenkwezi, Masibonge Emmanuel January 2021 (has links)
Magister Commercii (Information Management) - MCom(IM) / In the past, the Western Cape Department of Health had no formal or technologically enabled system for patient administration. This resulted in an administrative burden, increased waiting times for patients and doctors who needed results back from other sections, and missing patient files within the community health institutions such as clinics and hospitals. The Primary Healthcare Information System (PHCIS) was developed to solve this problem. However, it was later discovered that even though the PHCIS had been installed across the Western Cape clinics, there was a limited adoption and use of the PHCIS. Hence, the aim of this study was to investigate the factors that hinder the adoption and use of PHCIS by healthcare workers in the public healthcare clinics in the Khayelitsha sub-district in the Western Cape Province

Understanding the processes of information systems deployment and evaluation : the challenges facing e-health

Sharma, Urvashi January 2011 (has links)
Information Systems (IS) innovations in healthcare sector are seen as panacea to control burgeoning demand on healthcare resources and lack of streamlining in care delivery. Two particular manifestations of such innovations are telehealth and electronic records in its two forms: the electronic medical records and the electronic health records. Deployment efforts concerning both of these IS-innovations have encountered a rough terrain and have been slow. Problems are also faced while evaluating the effectiveness of innovations on health and care delivery outcomes through strategies such as randomised controlled trials- particularly in case of telehealth. By taking these issues into account, this research investigates the issues that affect IS innovation deployment and its evaluation. The strategy adopted in this research was informed by recursive philosophy and theoretical perspectives within IS that strived to expound this recursive relationship. It involved conducting two longitudinal case studies that are qualitative in nature. The first study involved telehealth deployment and its evaluation in the UK, while the second case study involved the deployment of electronic medical/health records in the US. Data was collected through focus group discussions, interviews and online discussion threads; and was analysed thematically. The results of this research indicate that there are nine issues that arise and affect the deployment and evaluation of IS innovation in healthcare; and these are design, efficiency and effectiveness, optimality and equity, legitimacy, acceptance, demand and efficacy, expertise, new interaction patterns, and trust. These issues are attributes of relationships between the IS innovation, context of healthcare and the user. The significance of these attributes varies during the deployment and evaluation process, and due to iterative nature of IS innovation. This research further indicates that all the attributes have either direct or indirect impact on work practices of the user.

Tecnologias para a difusão de conhecimentos em saúde na era da informação: a arte de transformar educação, pesquisa e assistência em um hospital universitário / Technologies for the diffusion of knowledge in health in the information age: the art of transforming education, research and assistance in a university hospital

Silva, Marcos Roberto Pereira 04 November 2016 (has links)
As Tecnologias de Informação e Comunicação (TICs) evoluíram exponencialmente ao longo dos últimos anos e aliadas ao fácil acesso à internet provocaram grandes mudanças na forma como a sociedade se comunica e se relaciona. Esta evolução foi sentida em diferentes campos da sociedade. As TICs chegaram até às salas de aulas, consultórios e hospitais. As pessoas passaram a se conectar via internet, formando grandes redes globais criando o que conhecemos como a \"Sociedade da Informação e Conhecimento\", onde o detentor da informação tem poder. Através de comunidades o conhecimento passou a ser construído coletivamente, criando a \"Inteligência Coletiva\". O presente trabalho reflete sobre este contexto e seus desdobramentos na área da saúde. Sendo assim, apresenta as problemáticas e alternativas envolvendo conhecimento sobre saúde, internet e pessoas. O trabalho também apresenta formas de busca de informação sobre saúde na internet, iniciativas que contribuem para tanto e ferramentas para apoiar a criação e disponibilização de conhecimento sobre saúde na internet. Nesse contexto, busca-se convergir para apresentação de uma proposta de trabalho para o HCFMRP-USP que envolva a Gestão do Conhecimento, metodologia que visa principalmente gerenciar, criar e disponibilizar o conhecimento institucional e as ferramentas de Tecnologia da Informação e Comunicação. / Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs) have evolved exponentially over the past few years and combined that with the easy access to the internet ICTs have caused major changes in the way society communicates and relates. That evolution has been felt in different fields of society. ICTs reached classrooms, offices and hospitals. People can now connect over the Internet, forming large global networks creating what we know as the \"Information and Knowledge Society\", where the information holder has power. Through communities, knowledge began to be built collectively, creating \" Collective intelligence \". The present work reflects this context and its consequences for healthcare. Thus this work presents the issues and alternatives involving knowledge about healthcare, internet and people. This work also presents ways to search for healthcare information on the Internet, initiatives that contribute to this topic and tools to support the creation and delivery of knowledge about health on the Internet. In this context, we seek to submit a work proposal to the HCFMRP- USP involving knowledge management, a methodology aimed primarily manage, create and provide the institutional knowledge and technology information and communication tools.

Um modelo para avaliação de sistemas de informação do SUS de abrangência nacional / A model for evaluating information systems of SUS with national scope

Morais, Rinaldo Macedo de 27 June 2014 (has links)
Os processos de gestão do Sistema Único de Saúde (SUS) são apoiados por um conjunto de sistemas de informação de abrangência nacional, com funcionalidades para as áreas epidemiológicas, ambulatoriais, hospitalares e administrativas. Trabalhos na literatura descrevem pontos fracos nessas aplicações, tais como a falta de integração entre sistemas e bases de dados, fragmentação de informações, baixa cobertura, incertezas quanto à confiabilidade dos dados mantidos e deficiências no apoio ao gestor para planejamento e tomada de decisões. Nesse contexto, foi identificada uma lacuna para pesquisar e discutir qualidade e avaliação dessas aplicações. Este trabalho propõe um modelo para avaliação de características de qualidade de sistemas de informação em saúde que possa ser aplicado aos sistemas do SUS. É descrito o processo de pesquisa, análise e classificação dos indicadores de avaliação para o modelo. Os indicadores foram obtidos por meio de pesquisa em bases bibliográficas e classificados segundo os atributos de qualidade da norma ISO/IEC 25010, adotada como modelo de qualidade no estudo. Como resultado, 57 indicadores foram identificados e mapeados, abrangendo todas as características de qualidade do modelo. A avaliação dos indicadores foi instrumentalizada por meio do desenvolvimento de questionários e procedimentos de inspeção de software, orientados aos diversos stakeholders envolvidos: profissionais de saúde, gestores de saúde, profissionais de tecnologia da informação e usuários do sistema de saúde. A aplicabilidade do modelo proposto foi avaliada para o Sistema de Informações sobre Mortalidade (SIM). A factibilidade dos procedimentos de inspeção foram analisados pelos mantenedores da aplicação e o SIM foi avaliado em um processo que envolveu profissionais de saúde de 18 municípios paulistas e 10 gestores de saúde que atuam nos níveis locais, regionais e estadual. Este trabalho poderá contribuir como mais uma referência para estudos que envolvam processos de avaliação da qualidade de softwares em saúde e auxiliar na normatização de planos de avaliação e monitoramento de qualidade de sistemas e dados em saúde pública no Brasil e em projetos de melhoria de software. / The management processes of the Unified Health System (SUS) are supported by a set of information systems with national scope, having features for the epidemiological, ambulatory, hospital, and administrative areas. Papers in the literature describe weaknesses in these applications, such as the lack of integration between systems and databases, fragmentation of information, low coverage, uncertainties regarding the reliability of data held and weaknesses in supporting managers in planning and decision making. In this context, we identified a gap for quality research and discuss and review these applications.This work proposes a model for evaluating health information systems that may be applied to the systems of SUS. It describes the research, analysis, and classification process of evaluation indicators for the model. The indicators were obtained by search in bibliographic databases and they were classified according to the quality attributes of the standard ISO/IEC 25010, adopted as quality model in the study. As a result, 57 indicators were identified and mapped, covering all quality features of the model. The evaluation of the indicators was instrumentalized by developing questionnaires and inspection procedures of software, oriented to the various stakeholders involved: health professionals, health managers, information technology professionals and users of the health system. The applicability of the proposed model was evaluated for the Information System on Mortality (SIM). The feasibility of the inspection procedures were analyzed by the maintainers of the application and the SIM has been reported in a case involving health professionals from 18 cities and 10 health managers working in local, regional and state levels. This work will be able to contribute as a further reference for studies involving quality assessment processes for softwares in health and to assist in the standardization of plans for assessing and monitoring the quality of systems and data on public health in Brazil and in projects for improving softwares
