The course aims to provide students with the essential knowledge to be able to effectively enter the world of work, in the field of Medical Informatics which is constantly expanding during this period. For this reason, in-depth analysis of the concepts of programming (web services and advanced use of databases) are presented. The main constituents of health information systems are also examined in depth.
Theoretical / practical course for in-depth analysis of medical informatics issues: interoperability, continuity of care, reuse of clinical data. Advanced tools for interactive data sharing via WEB between applications will be analyzed. Industry standards will be presented
Aims: The course aims to provide students with the ability to analyze a complex situation in a typical area of Medical Informatics. For this purpose the various components of the typical Health Information Systems are presented and discussed with both theoretical descriptions and analysis of the most recent research results in the literature. The major industry standards on three levels are analyzed in detail: technical, semantic and process. In parallel, practical lessons are held to examine the most recent programming tools adopted in these areas, with the aim to improve the student capacity of analysis, design, implementation and evaluation of information systems that are closer and closer to the real ones. Learning outcomes: - To improve computer skills, especially with regard to managed languages and service-oriented architectures - To learn the specific design methods for health information systems
· General Informatics · Databases · Object-oriented languages
The course is developed in parallel on two tracks. In the first, more theoretical, the various topics are presented both with traditional lessons and with analysis of the most recent scientific articles in the literature. In the second, more practical, the teaching is implemented in a participatory way, developing together with the students more and more concrete examples of parts of data bases of significant interest in Computer Science and their interfaces (standardized) using web services.
