“…From the 98 remaining studies, 33 were initially discarded for having little relation to the subject of study of this review. The remaining 65 papers were exhaustively analyzed and evaluated according to the described requirements; 24 papers were discarded for not having a solid experimental basis, 5–28 14 because they only develop the modeling of the process without executing it 29–42 and 4 of them for being other reviews. 3,4,43,44 Twenty-three studies were included in a preselection, and 11 of these were classified as doubtful by at least one of the authors.…”

Business Process Management is a new strategy for process management that is having a major impact today. Mainly, its use is focused on the industrial, services, and business sector. However, in recent years, it has begun to apply for optimizing clinical processes. So far, no studies that evaluate its true impact on the healthcare sector have been found. This systematic review aims to assess the results of the application of Business Process Management methodology on clinical processes, analyzing whether it can become a useful tool to improve the effectiveness and quality of processes. We conducted a systematic literature review using ScienceDirect, Web of Science, Scopus, PubMed, and Springer databases. After the electronic search process in different databases, 18 articles met the pre-established requirements. The findings support the use of Business Process Management as an effective methodology to optimize clinical processes. Business Process Management has proven to be a feasible and useful methodology to design and optimize clinical processes, as well as to automate tasks. However, a more comprehensive follow-up of this methodology, better technological support, and greater involvement of all the clinical staff are factors that play a key role for the development of its true potential.

“…To the best of our knowledge, we propose the first guidelines establishing an academia-tailored QMS for research organizations and units, which can significantly facilitate reproducibility and reusability of scientific software and speed up technology transfer in a controlled and predictable way. Only a few research organizations have started to implement such processes ( Sapunar et al., 2016 ) yet. The developed guideline intends not to simplify the certification process but to support the manufacturer with gathering all required documentation for the certification process from the academic partners (MDx-ready).…”

Fostering reproducibility, reusability, and technology transfer in health informatics

et al. 2021

Computational methods can transform healthcare. In particular, health informatics with artificial intelligence has shown tremendous potential when applied in various fields of medical research and has opened a new era for precision medicine. The development of reusable biomedical software for research or clinical practice is time-consuming and requires rigorous compliance with quality requirements as defined by international standards. However, research projects rarely implement such measures, hindering smooth technology transfer into the research community or manufacturers as well as reproducibility and reusability. Here, we present a guideline for quality management systems (QMS) for academic organizations incorporating the essential components while confining the requirements to an easily manageable effort. It provides a starting point to implement a QMS tailored to specific needs effortlessly and greatly facilitates technology transfer in a controlled manner, thereby supporting reproducibility and reusability. Ultimately, the emerging standardized workflows can pave the way for an accelerated deployment in clinical practice.

“…Another advantage of BPM systems is the opportunity that they present for the study of the data generated by the system usage, which is usually registered in log files (Sapunar et al, 2016). From 3rd February to 8th July, the system automatically registered the information about all 12,974 interactions that took place.…”

Enterprise Information Systems are enjoying an extensive trajectory in the optimization of organizations worldwide, of which predominantly the Business Process Management (BPM) systems stand out for their great flexibility. BPM models describe business workflows and are highly useful in detecting errors and bottlenecks and in identifying possible improvements. On the other hand, educational management software tools offer a large number of functionalities, but have yet to take advantage of these techniques. Our main objective is to perform an empirical analysis in this unexplored area to evaluate the advantages of applying BPM in the implementation of innovative and dynamic teaching activities.Using this methodology, we have designed RubricaSoft, a BPM system focused on providing dynamic educational processes. It automates multiple tasks, including peer evaluation, information integration and the management of deadlines. The results have been very promising from the point of view of the three axes upon which the evaluation has been carried out: satisfaction of students, improvement in academic results and increase in the productivity of teachers. In one of the processes, the time spent by the teacher has been reduced by 80% and student participation increased by 41%.
