Factors Assoctated With Technology Adoption In Clinical Practice, Jennifer C. Salib Dec 2002

Factors Assoctated With Technology Adoption In Clinical Practice, Jennifer C. Salib

All-Inclusive List of Electronic Theses and Dissertations

The primary focus of the current study was the investigation of technology use and related attitudes toward technology by psychologists in clinical practice. In addition, this study served as the initial step in a larger effort to develop a database, the Independent Practice Network (IP-Net), which will allow for on-going investigation of patterns and trends in independent practice. This study employed a survey method in which participants chose to respond either via the Internet or by mail. A random sample of 2,000 psychologists who are members of Division 42 (Psychologists in Independent Practice) of the American Psychological Association were invited …

An active-matrix microfluidic platform employs thin film transistor active ("TFT") matrix liquid crystal display ~ technology to manipulate small samples of fluid for chemical, biochemical, or biological assays without moving parts, for example, using a two-dimensional matrix array of drive electrodes. The active-matrix microfluidic platform may employ existing active matrix 0 addressing schemes and/or commercial "off-the-shelf" animation software to program assay protocols. A feedback subsystem may > determine an actual location of a fluid in the microfluidic structure, and provides location information to for display, for example, on an active-matrix display, and/or to control movement of one or more fluid bodies …


Mining Of Correlated Rules In Genome Sequences, L. Lin, L. Wong, Tze-Yun Leong, P. S. Lai Nov 2002

Mining Of Correlated Rules In Genome Sequences, L. Lin, L. Wong, Tze-Yun Leong, P. S. Lai

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

With the huge amount of data collected by scientists in the molecular genetics community in recent years, there exists a need to develop some novel algorithms based on existing data mining techniques to discover useful information from genome databases. We propose an algorithm that integrates the statistical method, association rule mining, and classification rule mining in the discovery of allelic combinations of genes that are peculiar to certain phenotypes of diseased patients.

Online Room Reservation And Scheduling System For A Hospital (Orrash), Heng Siong Lee

Student Works (2000-2009)

Online Room Reservation and Scheduling System For A Hospital (ORRASH) is a system that help the medical staff (nurse, physician) in a hospital to book a room ( a bed of a ward, an operation room) and administrate room scheduling in an easy way by eliminate the conventional manual way. This system also provides the online patient information for the patient and medical staff to view the patient records using network. Before develop this system, an interview was made with the authority of a hospital to know the process of booking a room in the hospital and a research was …

Intergration Of Smart Healthcare Information Systems, Singh Dulku Premjit

Student Works (2000-2009)

This project presents a Smart Healthcare Information System (SHIS), which hospitals and medical centers can use to improve their services. SHIS provides a set of integrated services and is web based. The system comprises of several modules, which include patient, insurance and billing, pharmaceutical, healthcare provider, and medical center information systems. It also provides a data analysis system for analyzing medical data. With this system, hospital staff (e.g, administrators, nurses) can perform their tasks (e.g, retrieving patient information, recording diagnostic and treatment details) more quickly and efficiently. Patients can also use the system to view their records and make online …

Internet Usage Among Medical Doctors In Malaysia, Surendran Jaganathan

Student Works (2000-2009)

In Malaysia, there were 20,000 Internet subscribers in 1996, 1.5 Million in 2000 and it is predicted to reach 4.5 Million in 2004. Malaysia is experiencing an explosive growth of Internet users. There is also a growing importance of "e -health businesses" as shown in the existing 20,000 healthcare sites currently online with an additional 1,500 sites being added every month. This translates to increasing healthcare site users for instance in America alone, out of 11 o million Internet users, 70 million searched the Web for health information. For healthcare consumers worldwide, the Internet has now become a tool for …
