User Personas for a "Better Design" of Nation-Wide EHRs Based on Thorough Expert Evaluation and Field Analysis: Modeling Users as Individuals Plus Family Members for an Enhanced Mapping of Healthcare Situations
Stud Health Technol Inform. 2024 Apr 26;313:87-92. doi: 10.3233/SHTI240017.ABSTRACTElectronic Health Records (EHRs) are pivotal in prevention, therapy, and care. Their design necessitates the representation of users, activities, context, and technology. Among various participative and ethnographic design methods, user personas are an effective tool for encapsulating users in the design process. Goals and methods: This research focused on the creation of user personas for the design of a nation-wide EHR, specifically the German "elektronische Patientenakte" (ePA). We employed qualitative methods, such as field analysis and ...

Comparison of WebSocket and Hypertext Transfer Protocol for Transfer of Electronic Health Records
CONCLUSION: RESTful APIs are a convenient way to implement EHR servers; on the other hand, HTTP becomes a bottleneck when transferring large amount of data. WebSocket shows better transfer times and thus its superiority in such situations. The problem can be addressed by developing a new communication protocol or by using network tunneling to handle large data transfer of EHRs.PMID:38682516 | DOI:10.3233/SHTI240023 (Source: Studies in Health Technology and Informatics)

Relationship Between Dietary Intakes and Elevated Diastolic Blood Pressure Among Children: A Cross-Sectional Study Using Wearable Devices
CONCLUSION: This study indicates that dietary intakes of high saturated fat, copper, and vitamin B12, but not parental blood pressure statuses, determine high diastolic blood pressure among children regardless of daily sodium intake. Early dietary consumption behavioral adaptation should be considered to prevent further hypertension in adulthood.PMID:38682517 | DOI:10.3233/SHTI240024 (Source: Studies in Health Technology and Informatics)
