Conference paper (peer-reviewed)abstract
- The Internet and social media are becoming ubiquitous technologies that are transforming the health sector. Social media has become an avenue for accessing, creating and sharing health information among patients and healthcare professionals. Furthermore, social media has become a key feature in many eHealth solutions, including wearable technologies, Big Data solutions, eLearning systems, Serious Games, Medical imaging, etc. These hyper-connected technologies are facilitating a paradigm shift towards more connected health. In this panel, representatives of different IMIA Working Groups will explore how both hope and hype contribute to social medias catalyzing role in creating connected health solutions.

Conference paper (peer-reviewed)abstract
- The Rapid Emergency Triage and Treatment System (RETTS) is used by the Swedish ambulance care organization for assessment of patients medicalcondition. The aim of the present study was to evaluate prehospital assessment in collaboration with the ambulance nurse and primary health care physicians. If the patient's condition was priority GREEN by RETTS then the ambulance nurse decided to contact the primary care physicians for a dialogue and together they decided which level of care was the most appropriate for the patient's condition. © 2016 IMIA and IOS Press

What if it was like a departure lounge at an airport? : eHealth for healthcare staff in a Swedish healthcare organization, a participatory design study
- 2016
-
In: Studies in Health Technology and Informatics. - : IOS Press. - 9781614996576 ; , s. 923-924
-
Conference paper (peer-reviewed)abstract
- EHealth is implemented in everyday work practice as a tool to improve accessibility and patient participation as well as healthcare efficiency. The aim of this study was to explore healthcare staff’s experiences and ideas about how eHealth ought to be designed to be a useful tool in everyday work practice in a Swedish healthcare organization. Healthcare staff (n= 7) at the micro level in a Swedish healthcare organization, participated in four Participatory Design workshops about eHealth design. eHealth could be a more useful and efficient tool in everyday work practice if it were designed more purposefully for its local setting and intended users, like the information system in ’a departure lounge of an airport’. Including healthcare staff in design discussions concerning eHealth tools for everyday work practice may improve the efficiency of eHealth as an everyday tool and support for healthcare staff.

Current trends in nursing informatics : Results of an international survey
- 2016
-
In: Studies in Health Technology and Informatics. - : IOS Press. - 9781614996576 ; , s. 938-939
-
Conference paper (peer-reviewed)abstract
- Nursing informatics (NI) can help provide effective and safe healthcare. This study aimed to describe current research trends in NI. In the summer 2015, the IMIA-NI Students Working Group created and distributed an online international survey of the current NI trends. A total of 402 responses were submitted from 44 countries. We identified a top five NI research areas: standardized terminologies, mobile health, clinical decision support, patient safety and big data research. NI research funding was considered to be difficult to acquire by the respondents. Overall, current NI research on education, clinical practice, administration and theory is still scarce, with theory being the least common. Further research is needed to explain the impact of these trends and the needs from clinical practice. © 2016 IMIA and IOS Press.

Ten Demands of Improved Usability in eHealth and Some Progress - Co-creation by Health and Social Care Professionals
- 2016
-
In: Nursing Informatics 2016. - Amsterdam : IOS Press. - 9781614996583 - 9781614996576 ; , s. 227-231
-
Conference paper (peer-reviewed)abstract
- Current healthcare organizations often do not accomplish the intended effects of their eHealth systems due to inadequate usability. Commissioned by the Swedish Ministry of Health and Social Affairs, the usability of current eHealth systems in Swedish health and social care has been analysed from the perspective of their professionals. The objective of the study was to report on current problems, potential solutions as well as to relate these to research in relevant areas. Using a participatory approach, nine workshops were held where health informatics researchers guided staff from different care organizations, representatives of the national associations of health and social care professionals and the national eHealth system vendor organization. This paper presents ten demands that Swedish health and social care professionals find imperative to prioritize. The study emphasizes that development of eHealth systems must be integrated into the care practice improvement process and iteratively evaluated regarding usability.

Advancing nursing informatics in the next decade : Recommendations from an international survey
- 2016
-
In: Studies in Health Technology and Informatics. - : IOS Press. - 9781614996576 ; , s. 123-127
-
Conference paper (peer-reviewed)abstract
- In the summer of 2015, the International Medical Informatics Association Nursing Informatics Special Interest Group (IMIA NISIG) Student Working Group developed and distributed an international survey of current and future trends in nursing informatics. The survey was developed based on current literature on nursing informatics trends and translated into six languages. Respondents were from 31 different countries in Asia, Africa, North and Central America, South America, Europe, and Australia. This paper presents the results of responses to the survey question: "What should be done (at a country or organizational level) to advance nursing informatics in the next 5-10 years?" (n responders=272). Using thematic qualitative analysis, responses were grouped into five key themes: 1) Education and training; 2) Research; 3) Practice; 4) Visibility; and 5) Collaboration and integration. We also provide actionable recommendations for advancing nursing informatics in the next decade. © 2016 IMIA and IOS Press.
