Objective: The purpose of this study was investigating situation and presenting a conceptual model for clinical governance information system by using UML in two sample hospitals. Background: However, use of information is one of the fundamental components of clinical governance; but unfortunately, it does not pay much attention to information management. Material and Methods: A cross sectional study was conducted in October 2012-May 2013. Data were gathered through questionnaires and interviews in two sample hospitals. Face and content validity of the questionnaire has been confirmed by experts. Data were collected from a pilot hospital and reforms were carried out and Final questionnaire was prepared. Data were analyzed by descriptive statistics and SPSS 16 software. Results: With the scenario derived from questionnaires, UML diagrams are presented by using Rational Rose 7 software.The results showed that 32.14 percent Indicators of the hospitals were calculated. Database was not designed and 100 percent of the hospital's clinical governance was required to create a database. Conclusion:Clinical governance unit of hospitals to perform its mission, do not have access to all the needed indicators. Defining of Processes and drawing of models and creating of database are essential for designing of information systems.

Introduction: Hypoglossia-hypodactyly is an uncommon genetic abnormality affecting the tongue and limbs. First, it was classified under a multipart group of disorders called oromandibular limb hypogenesis syndromes. The most extensively accepted etiology is intrauterine trauma. Hypoglossia, micrognathia of the mandible, and limb anomalies are the characteristic features of the syndrome. Case Presentation: A 19-year-old female patient was admitted to the Oral Medicine Department of the Dental School, Semnan University of Medical Sciences, for a dental checkup. After obtaining informed consent, the necessary dental prophylaxis was performed. This case was unique because the patient had only aglossia and deformity in her right hand and fingers. Conclusions: Since the disease is rare and presents as the first case in Iran, dentists must have knowledge about its clinical features and proper patient management. They also should explain the significance of systematic dental checkups, perfect oral hygiene, and the use of regular fluoride to patients. Therefore, the awareness of dentists is essential about diagnosis and appropriate referral to specialists.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
