A Hospital Information Management System With Habit-Change Features and Medial Analytical Support for Decision Making

Abstract

A hospital information management system (Doctive) with habit-change features and medial analytical support for decision making is developed in this study to reduce the risks of heart diseases. Doctive is targeted for hospital authorities to monitor patients’ habits and to prescribe medication and advice accordingly. Furthermore, this system provides emergency assistance for patients based on their current location. The proposed system would be beneficial for monitoring and organizing patients’ information to ease data entry, data management, data access, data retrieval and finally decision making. Doctive is tested and evaluated by 41 people who are either medical experts or professionals in the field of data analytics and visualization. The results indicate a high acceptance rate towards using Doctive system in hospitals and very good usability of the system. Doctive can be useful for healthcare providers and developers to track users’ habits for reducing the risk of heart disease. In the future.
