“…Tele healthcare uses web and internet to offer both clinical and non clinical services. Web service in Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) [4,5] solves the problem of interoperability for medical information exchange. Tele healthcare can be used in wide area for diabetes, tumor, physically disabled etc.…”

Remote healthcare system is widely used in developed and developing countries. Rapid development in network technologies and Sensor Web Enablement (SWE) provide anytime anywhere access of healthcare data. But Sensor Web Enablement faces challenges such as privacy, security, scalability etc. This paper proposes a framework that addresses above issues. The proposed framework comprises of Wireless Body Sensor Network (WBSN), Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) and web services to provide health services to the doctors, caregivers and patients. In order to address the privacy issues of sensitive health data, the proposed framework uses role based authorization technique to formulate the rules and decide whether to allow or deny the user access request. The proposed framework has been implemented using Java. Experimental results show that the proposed SOA framework guarantees high quality service with average response time of 0.237 ms and average throughput of 87%.

“…Batta and Mukherjee stated that web service technologies have been proposed in response to some interoperability challenges of heterogeneous health information systems (HIS). They also stated that service oriented architecture based on message is a pragmatic approach to solve integration problems of HIS [20]. Most important steps to integrate hospital information systems, including to Perform a complete analysis to understand various aspects of the system, Understanding the function of the system components and the relationship between them to achieve a basis for designing and implementing a suitable and efficient system [21].…”

Background: The integration of healthcare information systems is one of the most urgent priorities of healthcare organizations. Middleware has a major role in the integration of hospital information system (HIS). The purpose of this study is to determine the type of middleware used, their configuration and integration approaches in the hospitals of the research community.Methods: This study was descriptive in nature and was conducted in the form of a survey, with data being gathered via a self-structured questionnaire, in 2014. Seventeen hospitals affiliated to TUMS that have the HIS were recruited for this study. The questionnaire consisted of three parts. Simple statistical analysis was used to determine the integration status of HISs.Results: The most striking result to emerge from the data is that 64.7% of HISs had database-oriented middleware. Approximately half of surveyed HISs (41.2%) used synchronous mechanism and almost two-thirds of them (70.2%) used web service. Although, 17.2% of HISs use service-oriented integration approach, but the overall response to this question was poor.Conclusion: The result of the study indicates that the database-oriented middleware facilitate accessibility of the databases, on a variety of platforms. It might be related to the variety of company those developed the HISs. The result showed that the using web services could be helpful to application integration. The results of this investigation show that the HIS companies and healthcare facilities must be considered to the standards of interoperability for development and selection of the systems. Further research should be done to investigate the integration status of HISs in cross-national level and with other information systems in the field of healthcare.

“…The efforts have mainly been focused on the definition of information exchange standards (HL7, 2010;ANSI, 2010). It is frequently assumed that cooperating data sources exchange information horizontally, probably with the help of data discovery services (Zhang and W. Xu, 2007). There are also some proposals that additionally consider the semantic level for data association (Lopez and Blobel, 2009;Hovenga, 2008).…”

Merging distributed medical record databases into an integrated database is an alternative approach for the implementation of the unified medical record concept. One of the main advantages of this approach is that the integrated database could be a backup for medical record databases. Additionally, the integrated database may be useful for medical research and may help improve the decisions on public policies related to health care. We propose a protocol for dynamically maintaining an integrated database that is the merge of different medical record databases, under some limitations related to security and control of the medical record.
