“…A Suécia possui uma boa contribuição de estudos devido ao programa de doutorado da Karolinska Institutet, o qual explora a tecnologia RES, em especial a abordagem openEHR. O Brasil foi o único país sul-americano em destaque por contribuição das teses de doutorado concluídas 3,50 e por linhas de pesquisas existentes em universidades e hospitais [51][52][53][54] .…”

Dos principais padrões em sistemas de Registro Eletrônico de Saúde (RES), destaca-se a abordagem da Fundação openEHR. Este trabalho apresenta uma Revisão Sistemática da Literatura dos estudos que utilizam esta abordagem com ênfase na utilização do seu Modelo de Objetos. A pesquisa foi realizada nas bases de dados internacionais com base em quatro questões de pesquisa e critérios de inclusão e exclusão definidos. Entre os resultados obtidos, foi possível observar que o continente europeu é o maior centro dos estudos relacionados com a abordagem openEHR, com exceção da Austrália na Oceania. Pode-se concluir que uma versão estável da especificação openEHR contribuiu para o aumento de estudos a partir de 2008. Em relação às métricas de software aplicadas ao modelo do openEHR, até a realização deste trabalho, não se observaram estudos dessa natureza. Além disso, esta revisão possibilitou relacionar as ferramentas para coleta de métricas disponíveis na literatura.

“…This technology is based on a distributed architecture, and it is essential that agents communicate with each other in order to ensure the interoperation among several applications, in this case, among the HIS. Through the lifecycle of an agent, the MAS can manage the availability of the modules integrated with the system and the HIS as a whole, keeping all the agents that compose the MAS freely distributed [ 18 , 19 ].…”

Interoperability in health information systems is increasingly a requirement rather than an option. Standards and technologies, such as multi-agent systems, have proven to be powerful tools in interoperability issues. In the last few years, the authors have worked on developing the Agency for Integration, Diffusion and Archive of Medical Information (AIDA), which is an intelligent, agent-based platform to ensure interoperability in healthcare units. It is increasingly important to ensure the high availability and reliability of systems. The functions provided by the systems that treat interoperability cannot fail. This paper shows the importance of monitoring and controlling intelligent agents as a tool to anticipate problems in health information systems. The interaction between humans and agents through an interface that allows the user to create new agents easily and to monitor their activities in real time is also an important feature, as health systems evolve by adopting more features and solving new problems. A module was installed in Centro Hospitalar do Porto, increasing the functionality and the overall usability of AIDA.

“…In our architecture, the message exchange facilities comply with the openEHR standard [11,12], and have been designed to support message exchange amongst heterogeneous EHR systems in pervasive healthcare environments. openEHR has an EHR Extract Information Model (IM) 3 that describes the several ways in which an EHR extract can be built to support interoperability between EHR systems.…”

“…The Clinical Knowledge Manager (CKM) 4 is the archetype repository of the openEHR Foundation. We have reused some available archetypes provided by CKM, such as Device and Clinical Synopsis, and we have developed new archetypes to represent clinical concepts from the cardiology domain, such as Coronary Cardiac Surgery and Pacemaker Implantation [13].…”

This paper presents an architecture for health information exchange in pervasive healthcare environments meant to be generally applicable to different applications in the healthcare domain. Our architecture has been designed for message exchange by integrating ubiquitous computing technologies, intelligent agents and healthcare standards, in order to provide interoperability between healthcare systems. We conduct controlled experiments at three cardiology clinics, an analysis laboratory, and the cardiology sector of a hospital located in Marília (São Paulo, Brazil). Three scenarios were developed to evaluate this architecture, and the results showed that the architecture is suitable to facilitate the development of healthcare systems by offering generic and powerful message exchange capabilities. The proposed architecture facilitates health information exchange between various healthcare information systems, contributing in this way to the development of a pervasive healthcare environment that allows healthcare to be available anywhere, anytime and to anyone.
