INTRODUCTION:Electronic medical record system (EMRS) is a valuable system for safe access to the patient's data and increases health care quality. Manpower is one of the requirements for EMRS, among which manager is the most important person in any hospital. Taking into account manager's positive attitude and good commitments, EMRS will be implemented successfully. As such, we decided to assess manager's attitude and commitment toward EMRS in Isfahan hospitals in the year of 2014.AIM:This article aimed to determine the hospital managers’ attitude and commitment toward the implementation of EMRS.MATERIALS AND METHODS:The present article is an applied analytic study. Research society consisted of the managers of all the hospitals in Isfahan that include hospitals affiliated to Isfahan University of Medical Sciences, private, and social security hospitals. This study was done in 2014. Data collection tools included a questionnaire for which reliability and validity were determined. Data were analyzed by means of SPSS 20.RESULTS:Average score for the managers’ attitude toward EMRS in the city of Isfahan was 77.5 out of 100 and their average score for commitment was 74.7. Manager's attitude in social security hospitals was more positive than the private and governmental ones (83.3%). In addition, the amount of commitment by the managers in social security hospitals was higher than the same in private and governmental hospitals (86.6%).CONCLUSION:At present, managers’ attitude and commitment in Isfahan hospitals toward EMRS are very high and social security hospitals show more readiness in this respect.

Background: User satisfaction with PACS is considered as one of the important criteria for assessing success in using PACS. The objective of this study was to determine the level of user satisfaction with PACS and to compare its functional features with traditional film-based systems. Methods: This study was conducted in 2017. Residents at three large university hospitals in Kerman filled-out a selfadministered questionnaire consisting of three parts: demographic information of participants, user satisfaction with PACS, comparing features of the two digital and traditional imaging systems. The validity of this questionnaire was approved by five medical informatics, radiology, and health information management specialists and its reliability was confirmed by Cronbach's alpha (86%). Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and the Spearman, Mann Whitney U and Kruskal-Wallis statistical tests. Results: The mean of the participants' ages was 31.4 (±4.4) years and 59% of the participants were females. The mean of physicians' satisfaction with PACS' had no significant relationship with their age (P = 0.611), experience of using PACS (P = 0.301), specialty (P = 0.093), and percent of interpretation of images with PACS (P = 0.762). It had a significant relationship with the participants' computer skills (P = 0.022). Conclusions: The mean of physicians' satisfaction with PACS was at a moderate to a high level, yet there are still problems in the successful implementation of these systems and establishing interoperability between them. PACS has not fully met all the demands of physicians and has not achieved its predetermined objectives, such as allaccess from different locations.

“…In addition, there are clinical and financial opportunities associated with using EHIMS. 14 Clinical opportunities include continuous access to patient records, 24 hours a day; practitioner reminders and alerts; ongoing education for healthcare professionals; easy access for practitioner and patients; improved decision support through electronic links to bodies of scientific knowledge and other external sources; timely and effective care, and easy and smooth follow-up of patient care. Financial opportunities of the EHIMS include reduction in the cost of healthcare, time savings in documentation; prevention of misfiling or loss of patient records, better utilization of resources, and reduction of frequent services such as laboratory tests.…”

Nowadays, an electronic health information management system (EHIMS) is crucial for patient care in hospitals. This paper explores the aspects and elements that contribute to the success of EHIMS in Nigerian teaching hospitals. The study adopted a survey research design. The population of study comprised 442 health information management personnel in five teaching hospitals that had implemented EHIMS in Nigeria. A self-developed questionnaire was used as an instrument for data collection. The findings revealed that there is a positive, close relationship between all the identified factors and EHIMS’s success: technical factors (r = 0.564, P < 0.05); social factors (r = 0.616, P < 0.05); organizational factors (r = 0.621, P < 0.05); financial factors (r = 0.705, P < 0.05); and political factors (r = 0.589, P < 0.05). We conclude that consideration of all the identified factors was highly significant for the success of EHIMS in Nigerian teaching hospitals.
