Computer Network System:
Computer networks in smart hospitals are considered as one of the most important required systems.Connection and transmission of all electronic systems to each other is the main purpose of these systems. For designing of computer networks in hospitals, the bandwidth required for each electronic system and medical equipment should be calculated first, and ACCESS, DISTRIBUTION or CORE layer switches should be designed and selected based on that.
In addition, WIFI-based wireless networks in smart hospitals drive many applications these days. For designing an optimal wireless network all factors should be considered. The hospital data center connection with outside of the hospital and other medical centers via WAN network for sharing patients medical records should be considered too.
Central telephone systems:
In smart hospitals, due to reliable computer networks, efforts are put on reducing expenses as much as possible by using this network for transferring data. That’s why IP BASE telephone systems are common in modern smart hospitals. Two-way voice communication as well as text messages on the VOIP platform are also possible wirelessly between nurses ,doctors and patients outside of the hospital .
Hospital Information Management Systems (HIS):
HIS systems are considered as one of the most important systems in implementation of smart hospitals. All information of different systems in accordance with patient medical records are stored in this system and will be retrieved in case needed. An HIS system with optimal performance is effective in all departments in the organization functions and also in all operating procedures and services required in the hospital .
Main systems in a hospital are:
1-Hospital Reception
Information System
2. Outpatients Information System
3. Hospital departments Information System
4- Pharmacy Information System
5. Lab information system
6. Radiological information system
7. Operating theater information system
8. Medical documents Information System
9. The patient’s clearance information system
10. Accounting Information System
11. Nutrition Information System
The services used in Smart Hospitals HIS are:
1. Electronic medical documents records
2. Electronic nursing documents records
3. Personnel Information System
4. Decision support systems
5. Terminology Services
6. Security services
7. Communication services
8. Telemedicine Services
9-Resource Management System
Due to the list of components of the building as well as the services required in each hospital, the system is clearly communicated to all of the above mentioned electronic systems.
