DeaneProblem Statement: Considerable effort has been devoted over the years by many organizations to adopt quality management practices, but few studies have assessed critical factors that affect quality practices in healthcare organizations. The problem addressed in this study was to assess the critical factors influencing the quality management practices in a single important industry (i.e., healthcare). Approach: A survey instrument … …American Journal of Economics and Business Administration, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2009 · 10,361 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleChallenges in Healthcare Waste Management of the UN 2030 Agenda in the COVID-19 EraGabriella Marfe, Stefania Perna, Arturo HermannToday, the COVID-19 pandemic has caused a remarkable and sudden increase in global demand for Personal Protective Equipment (PPE), such as masks, gloves, gowns. The growing biomedical and municipal streams of potentially infectious waste is a new challenge for every country since an inadequate waste management might have serious public health consequences and significant impact on the environment. In this … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 18, Issue 1 · 7 Mar 2022 · 7,576 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsSmart Patient Consent Management Model for Health Information Exchange Based on Blockchain TechnologyK. R. Rohini, P. S. Rajakumar, S. GeethaInnovation for Electronic Medical Records (EMRs) has been hindered by years of excessive regulation and inefficient bureaucracy. As data science and personalization encourage individuals to take an active role in their healthcare and regain control of their own medical records, there is an urgent need for new approaches. The ability to exchange electronic health records is fundamental in contemporary healthcare … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 20, Issue 7 · 17 Apr 2024 · 7,343 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsBlockchain: Methods, Applications and Technology ProgressCheryl Ann Alexander, Lidong WangBlockchain is gaining great attentions in various applications. Blockchain is a shared ledger concept which is highly secure due to the nature of its construction. It is immutable, needs a consensus to add a block to the chain, is held secure by a hash function and is visible to all participants within the blockchain. The methods, impacts and benefits of … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 1 · 2 Feb 2019 · 8,443 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsDetermining the Hazardous Medical Waste Generation Rates of Private Health Care Facilities-Case Study from Dhaka City of BangladeshMd. Yousuf Rumi, Rezaul KarimMany developing countries are lagging behind the developed countries to properly manage their hazardous healthcare waste. These waste pose a significant epidemiological risks to the general people. To estimate the epidemiological risks and to establish parameters of any waste management plan, quantitative estimation of healthcare waste generation is essential. Most researches on quantitative estimation of healthcare wastes to date, have … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 4 · 25 Apr 2018 · 8,387 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsCorrelation Between Dispersion and Mean Toassess Healthcare Servicee FficiencyRamalingam ShanmugamMotivation for this research work started while helping a hospital administrator to assess whether patient oriented activity duration, X≥0 is reflecting the service’s efficiency? Higher value of the sample mean duration, X implies lesser productivity in the hospital and more healthcare cost. Likewise, larger value of sample dispersion, sx2 in the service durations is an indicator of lesser reliability and … …Current Research in Biostatistics, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 30 Aug 2012 · 6,873 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsIs Poisson Dispersion Diluted or Over-Saturated? An Index is Created to AnswerRamalingam ShanmugamA prelude to interpret a pattern in the repeating incidences is to identify the underlying frequency distribution of the collected data. A case in point is the Poisson distribution which is often selected for medical count data such as gene mutations, medication error and number of ambulatory pickups in a day. A requirement for the Poisson distribution is that the … …Current Research in Biostatistics, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 24 May 2013 · 6,614 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Dynamically Zero Trust and Risk Aware Cryptographic Orchestration Framework of Secure Multi Cloud Electronic Health RecordsD. Veerabhadra Rao, G. Appa Rao, S. AnuradhaThe adoption of multi-cloud infrastructures for Electronic Health Records (EHRs) improves scalability and accessibility but introduces security challenges such as fragmented trust management, high cryptographic overhead, and inefficient integrity verification. Existing frameworks rely on static authorization and uniform encryption mechanisms, which fail to dynamically evaluate behavioural risks associated with user access requests. Consequently, Distributed Trust Inconsistency, Cryptographic Scalability Saturation, and … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 22, Issue 10 · 7 Oct 2026 · 453 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBlockchain-Enabled Privacy-Preserving Access Control for Electronic Health Records Using Smart ContractsG. Bhanu Prasad, M. Venkateswara RaoElectronic medical records are crucial for providing high-quality healthcare, but they also raise serious privacy and security issues. Traditional centralised storage systems are vulnerable to manipulation, hacking, and illegal access. This study suggests a smart contract-based blockchain architecture that provides decentralised, unaltered, and privacy-preserving access control for EMRs. The model integrates cryptographic techniques like AES-256 encryption and SHA-256 hashing for … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 22, Issue 6 · 22 Jun 2026 · 1,306 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRisk Assessment of Healthcare Information Systems in Indonesian Regional Government Hospitals Using ISO 27001:2022Deo Alif Alfitrah, Nilo LeegowoThe growing number of cyber-attacks targeting the healthcare sector, particularly Indonesian regional government hospitals, reflects the absence of a structured information security management system. Issues such as shared account usage, lack of staff security training, and undocumented incident reporting present serious risks to patient data. This study aims to assess the current state of information security in a government hospital … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 22, Issue 3 · 13 Mar 2026 · 2,416 accessesView PDFCite
