“…The described example has been implemented at Marburg University Medical Center on the basis of an extensible integrated hospital information system [39,41]. As mentioned before, integration is an important precondition for process support, because data stemming from different departments needs to be readily available for reuse in order to be able to provide effective decision support.…”

“…In the last 10 years, health information systems (HIS) have undergone significant evolution, including notable advances such as the layered approach to continuous adaptation and development of these systems [1]. This evolution highlights the significance of a responsive information technology (IT) infrastructure to quickly align information systems with clinical processes [2]. The paper delves into the evolution of hospital information systems towards a more comprehensive HIS, highlighting the advantages, obstacles, and possible strategies for overcoming these challenges.…”

Over the last decade, health information systems (HIS) have undergone significant changes, particularly in embracing flexible frameworks for ongoing development. This evolution underscores the necessity for information technology (IT) infrastructures that rapidly align with clinical processes. The paper investigates the transition of hospital information systems to comprehensive strategies, examining the benefits and challenges involved. It also examines the increasing demands on health data management systems (HDMS) for patient care and biomedical research. The focus is on how the integration of the Internet of Things (IoT) and open-source enterprise resource planning (ERP) systems, such as Odoo, impacts health information management. The study evaluates the effectiveness and implications of combining these technologies. It provides examples of these integrated systems in action, particularly in resource-limited settings, and evaluates their potential to improve care. The document provides a comprehensive review of the current status and evolution of HIS and HDMS, highlighting the importance of integrating IoT and other cutting-edge technologies in healthcare. This is a crucial aspect for developing countries, where these advancements can significantly improve healthcare outcomes.

Process improvement is feasible and effective when formal methods for process analysis and requirements specification are used in a reasonable and goal-oriented way. It might be necessary to trade off costs and benefits or simplify a given method in the context of a particular project. As the same information is utilized in different tools, it is supposed that the efforts for process analysis, documentation and implementation of adapted applications could be reduced if different tools were integrated and based on a single coherent reference model for description of clinical processes.
