| Abstract: |
In the time where the digital world is moving to mobile devices, new
opportunities are emerging for the e-health systems. We live in the time when
data are stored in different databases and different ways. This imposed the
use of ontologies to resolve interoperability issues. Ontologies can be used
for automation of e-health system data flow, enabling automated responses in
real time to patient data entered into the medical record from Physicians and
hospitals, and by offering caregivers evidence-based, best-practice
information about how to act in emergency or nonemergency situations. Mobile
e-health semantic systems help Physicians tracking better the health of their
patients, avoid mistakes and act faster in emergency situations Semantic
technology and database technology in combination with mobile devices together
make a combined information system which will revolutionize the way how
today’s health institutions treat their patients. |
