Integrating Information for Medical Decision Support and Education: A Model for Other Knowledge Domains
نویسندگان
چکیده
Stanford Health Information Network for Education (SHINE) integrates online guideline texts, textbooks, journals, bibliographic systems, medical images, digital video, relational databases, and knowledge-based systems, which were formerly accessible individually through the Z39.50 protocol, SQL language, HTTP protocol, and full-text search engines. We introduce the architecture that is used to integrate these distributed heterogeneous systems and allows presentation of resources with non-overlapping content as if they were a single volume. We explain how the system will be integrated with electronic medical record systems to support medical decisions. We also discuss SHINE’s electronic notebook, and log recording systems that make SHINE a complete system that supports medical decision making and learning. The same concepts can be applied to aggregation of knowledge domains to optimize the functions of other (non-medical) target users.
