The awareness of information security among nurses in China is generally inadequate, and there is a lack of standardized evaluation tools for nurse information security in nursing practice. The nursing sector necessitates the establishment of a robust culture surrounding information security. Objective The aim of this study was to construct a self-reporting instrument for evaluating nursing information security. Methods The [...]

Background As teleconsultations continue to rise in popularity due to their convenience and accessibility, it's crucial to identify and address the challenges they present in order to improve the patient experience, enhance outcomes, and ensure the quality of care. To identify communication challenges that clinicians and patients experience during teleconsultation, a scoping review was conducted. Methods Studies were obtained from four databases (Ovid [MEDLINE], Ovid [Embase], CINAHL and Scopus). Gray [...]

Duplicate patient records can increase cost and medical errors. We assessed the association between demographic factors, comorbidities, healthcare usage and duplicate electronic health records.

We proposed adopting billing models for secure messaging (SM) telehealth services that move beyond time-based metrics, focusing on the complexity and clinical expertise involved in patient care.

This research study aims to advance the staging of Parkinson's disease (PD) by incorporating machine learning to assess and include a broader multi-functional spectrum of neurocognitive symptoms in the staging schemes beyond motor-centric assessments. Specifically, we provide a novel framework to modernize and personalize PD staging more objectively by proposing a hybrid feature scoring approach.

The use of artificial intelligence-driven code completion tools, particularly the integration of GitHub Copilot with Visual Studio, has potential implications for Health Informatics education, particularly for students learning SQL and Python.

The All of Us Evenings with Genetics (EwG) Research Program at Baylor College of Medicine (BCM), funded to engage research scholars to work with the All of Us data, developed a training curriculum for the Researcher Workbench, the platform to access and analyze All of Us data. All of Us EwG developed the curriculum so that it could teach scholars regardless of their skills and background in programming languages and [...]

Educational offerings to fill the bioinformatics knowledge gap are a key component to enhancing access and use of health data from the All of Us Research Program. We developed a Train the Trainer-based, innovative training series including project-based learning, modular on-demand demonstrations, and unstructured tutorial time as a model for educational engagement in the All of Us community.

To examine changes in technology-related errors (TREs), their manifestations and underlying mechanisms at 3 time points after the implementation of computerized provider order entry (CPOE) in an electronic health record; and evaluate the clinical decision support (CDS) available to mitigate the TREs at 5-years post-CPOE.
