Introduction to Health Informatics
Assignment 2
Type: Healthcare Service Analysis activity (in pairs)
Topic: Clinical Information System Design
Length: 2000 words plus Application/Interface Design Diagrams
Weighting: 30%
Due: Week 12 Friday 16th May at 11:59pm (uploaded to vUWS)
ASSIGNMENT OUTLINE
Your team is required to design a Clinical Information System (CIS) that is suitable
for use in a private clinic that specialises in the clinical management of Type II
Diabetes in Australia. You should carefully research about type II diabetes
management and consider the types of clinical issues that are relevant in caring for
patients with this condition within the Australian context. Your research about the
management of this condition should translate into your design.
You should include consideration of the major components of a typical CIS discussed
during lectures and workshops as well as consider some of the requirements of
relevant clinical providers that normally care for diabetic patients and would use your
system. The CIS would not only be used for direct clinical care but may also be used
for financial and reporting purposes.
The design should be conceptually at a high level with accompanying diagrams
illustrating important aspects of the interface design and features. The relevance of the
design for clinically managing diabetes should be readily apparent. The major
components of a CIS should be comprehensively covered. Higher marks will be given
to innovative designs that enhance efficiency and safe practice of managing diabetes
through intelligent application features. Describing the characteristics of a general
CIS that applies to any clinical condition will receive lower marks. As an example of
a specialised CIS, refer to the workshop in week 5 on CISs, which demonstrates an
openMRS solution that is customised to the clinical management of tuberculosis.
Your report should discuss why you chose in particular the design and explicitly
describe the aspects of diabetes management you are catering for. You should also
indicate the intended users of this system and any interface changes to accommodate
different users. Specify whether there are any external services this system could be
required to interact with in order to exchange relevant healthcare-related information.
Any resources used to assist you in developing your design should be properly
referenced.
TEAM CREATION
For those students that attend the Access Grid rooms on campus for the lectures, you
are able to create your own team (ie: choose your own partner). Once you have
created a team, one of the team members must advise the unit coordinator of each
member’s name, student id and email address. Any students not in a Team by 5:00pm Fri 18th April (approximately one week after assignment release) will be allocated to
a Team by the unit coordinator and each team member will be advised by email. It is
then each team member’s responsibility to contact each other and commence work.
For external students you have two options:
1) If you know other students doing the unit, create your own team and advise
your unit coordinator as described above.
2) If you do not know other students doing the unit, advise the unit coordinator
via email, that you need to be allocated to a Team. The unit coordinator will
then create a Team and advise both members of each other’s details. It is then
each student’s responsibility to contact each other and start working on the
assignment.
