This study assessed the factors militating against the effective implementation of electronic health records (EHR) in Nigeria, the computerization of patients' health records with a lot of benefits including improved patients' satisfaction, improved care processes, reduction of patients' waiting time, and medication errors. Despite these benefits, healthcare organizations are slow to adopt the EHR system. Therefore, the study assessed the factors militating against the effective implementation of the EHR system, the level of awareness of EHR, and the utilization of electronic health records; it also investigated the factors militating against the effective implementation of EHR.

The electronic prescription of Labile Blood Products was recommended in a 1997 directive, to ensure transfusion safety in healthcare services. Following multiple institutional reminders by the Haemovigilance Unit of the Marseille Public Hospitals (APHM), the board of directors decided to set up a project for electronic transfusion records. Here we present the issues arising from this computerisation and the impact of this change of practice on the APHM and the Etablissement Français du Sang PACA-Corse (EFS PACA-Corsica; French Blood Institute Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur-Corsica).

Sensing systems necessitate automation to reduce human effort, increase reproducibility, and enable remote sensing. In this perspective, we highlight different types of sensing systems with elements of automation, which are based on flow injection and sequential injection analysis, microfluidics, robotics, and other prototypes addressing specific real-world problems. Finally, we discuss the role of computer technology in sensing systems.

The use of electronic health records (EHR) in primary healthcare (PHC) aims for better integration of services and care quality. One of most the critical points of Brazilian PHC is access. This article aims to analyze, through data from the third evaluation cycle of the Brazilian Program for Improving Access and Quality of Primary Care (PMAQ-AB), the relationship between the use of electronic health records and the parameters of access of the participant teams.

Electrocardiograms (EKG) form the backbone of all cardiovascular diagnosis, treatment and follow up. Given the pivotal role it plays in modern medicine, there have been multiple efforts to computerize the EKG interpretation with algorithms to improve efficiency and accuracy. Unfortunately, many of these algorithms are machine specific and run-on proprietary signals generated by that machine, hence not generalizable.
