BACKGROUND Mobile electronic medical record (EMR) systems are widely used based on the wide availability of smartphones; their ability to improve efficiency in medical practice has been demonstrated. However, the quantitative effectiveness of mobile EMR systems has rarely been measured. OBJECTIVE The aim of this study is to determine the effectiveness of near-field communication (NFC) integrated with a mobile EMR system in terms of physician turn-around time in an emergency department (ED). METHODS A simulation study was performed in an ED. 25 participants working in the ED participated in two scenarios, using mobile or a PC: one is locating randomly designated patients in the ED from the ED entrance, and the other is looking up the laboratory results of an ED patient at the bedside. Upon accomplishing the scenarios, participants responded to a 10 question questionnaire using a system usability scale (SUS). The main metric was turn-around time for each scenario. The secondary metric was the usability of the system, graded by the study subjects. RESULTS Locating patients from the ED entrance took 93.0 s (mean) using the mobile scenario, whereas it took 57.3 s (mean) using the PC scenario, which is significantly faster (P < .001). Searching for laboratory results of the patients at the bedside took 25.2 s (mean) using the mobile scenario, and 61.5 s (mean) using the PC scenario, which is significant (P < .001). Sensitivity analysis comparing only the time for login and looking up the relevant information also found mobile to be significantly faster. The mean SUS score of NFC-mobile EMR was 71.9 points. CONCLUSIONS NFC integrated with mobile EMR helped physician practice to be more efficient, with good usability. CLINICALTRIAL IRB File No - SMC 2018-01-144-001

Near Field Communication (NFC) technology enables mobile phones to store important data safely and reliably. The data can be sent to another phone equipped with NFC or read by NFC reader. Through special applications the data can also be added, subtracted, or modified. This NFC capability allows the phone to be developed into a device that can store important data such as e-money or electronic medical records. In this research has been developed medical record system based on Near Field Communication (NFC). The results of alpha and beta testing show that the developed application has good performance.

Vaccine requirements are becoming more mandatory in several countries as public health experts and governments become more concerned about the COVID-19 pandemic and its variants. In the meantime, as the number of vaccine requirements grows, so does the counterfeiting of vaccination documents. Fake vaccination certificates are steadily growing, being sold online and on the dark web. Due to the nature of the COVID-19 pandemic, there is a need of robust authentication mechanisms that support touch-less technologies like Near Field Communication (NFC). Thus, in this paper, a blockchain-NFC based COVID-19 Digital Immunity Certificate (DIC) system is proposed. The vaccination data are first encrypted by the Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) algorithm on Hadoop Distributed File System (HDFS) and then uploaded to the blockchain. The proposed system is based on the amalgamation of NCF and blockchain technologies which can mitigate the issue of fake vaccination certificates. Furthermore, the emerging issues of employing the proposed system are discussed with future directions.

ZusammenfassungInsbesondere während der aktuellen Corona-Pandemie hat der Gebrauch virtueller Lösungen in der Medizin international stark zugenommen. Es gibt eine zunehmende Akzeptanz gerade auch in dem Bereich der hausärztlichen Versorgung, der Behandlung psychischer Störungen und der Abhängigkeitserkrankungen.Die Entwicklung ist international unterschiedlich, v. a, wenn man die USA und Kanada auf der einen Seite und Europa, insbesondere Deutschland, andererseits vergleicht. In Nordamerika hat bei dem Einsatz von moderner Technologie die Einführung von „Electronic Medical Record Systems“ eine dominierende Rolle gespielt. Diese ist insbesondere auf Abrechnung und Dokumentation zu Versicherungszwecken fokussiert. Daneben gibt es zunehmend Apps, die spezifische therapeutische Ansätze zu implementieren helfen. Die Anwendung virtueller Ansätze im Suchtbereich ist begrenzt, aber in Teilen sehr innovativ und auf deutsche Verhältnisse anwendbar. Wie in Europa gibt es auch in Nordamerika nur sehr begrenzte Forschungskapazitäten und prinzipiell Widerstand bei den medizinischen Berufsgruppen bezüglich der Anwendungsmöglichkeiten und der Rolle im Behandlungsprozess. Mehr Kooperation würde international zu einer Beschleunigung der Entwicklung und der Etablierung gemeinsamer Standards beitragen sowie die Behandlungssysteme bedeutend verbessern.
