“…Only 10 years ago, the "crucial role" of hospital information systems in "providing high quality services in hospitals" was discussed (Khorramshahgol, Al-Barmil, & Stallings, 1995); nowadays such products are available and used in hospitals. Research in recent years introduced location-aware hospital information systems (Rodriguez, Favela, Martinez, & Munoz, 2004) that select relevant information based on who and from where patient's data is accessed, and first approaches for workflow management do exist (Chang & Yang, 2004;Pappas, Coscia, Dodero, Gianuzzi, & Earney, 2002;Sutherland & van den Heuvel, 2006).…”

Recent trends in manufacturing and health care move these two work systems closer together from a system ergonomics point of view. Individual treatment of products, especially patients, by specialists in a distributed environment demand information technology (IT)-based support suitable for complex systems. IT-based support of processes in complex systems is difficult due to the lack of standard processes. IT support also means to rethink processes to use efficiency potentials. Close cooperation of users and software developers is needed to increase the ergonomic quality of the system. Therefore, suitable tools are needed: UML is available as the standard industry modeling language, Zope/Plone as the quasi-standard for content management systems, SimPy as an object-oriented simulation tool for event-triggered processes, and ACT-R as a powerful cognitive architecture for simulation of human information processes. The integration of these tools enables system-ergonomic support of processes in the complex work system as well as of the development and deployment process. It is the base of an integral system-ergonomic approach for IT-based process management. Knowledge gained during process analysis either enters models or leads to the extension and adaptation of the tool chain. The models serve as basis for discussion among system ergonomists, programmers, and specialists from the work system. Further, they are understood by simulation and process support tools. Transcoding efforts between humans with different professional backgrounds and machines are reduced, and the flexibility demanded by complex systems is met. C

“…During the last years, research has already started and several systems supporting guidelines and dealing with the execution and analysis of organizational processes have been developed [5]. First steps heading in the direction to support the complete administrative workflow have also been performed and good representatives are Ward-in-Hand [17] and the "Communication approach" [1].…”

The market for health care systems supporting physicians and improving their daily routine is steadily growing. The development of these systems requires handling medical knowledge and process knowledge. One promising knowledge management technique that has been applied in various medical assistant systems is Case-Based Reasoning (CBR). This paper presents selected work from the history of "CBR in Medicine", clarifying that several systems already have been developed in the past, but the medical domain also still provides new problems and challenges, where a CBR-approach can be profitably applied. Currently, we are developing a CBR-based component, able to retrieve medical documents in written text form and to convert them into new patterns like a DICOM Structured Report. The component will be integrated in our existing transparent gateway for distributed data access to enable the collaboration of several health care organizations.
