Construction of Dynamic Medical Information System for Digital Hospital Environments

The distribution of healthcare information via cloud-based hospital information systems has been increasing in recent years. Because these systems can disseminate sensitive healthcare information to various smart devices, their security approaches must be carefully studied. In addition, research is required to ensure that patients are being properly notified about changes in their medical treatments. Therefore, in this paper, we propose a dynamic medical information system for digital hospital environments. For this purpose, we design a system that can securely distribute existing digital hospital data, including medical images and patient record information. In order to classify the providing services, we divide them into two types—synchronization and security. We suggest a dynamic authentication method to access medical information. Moreover, the proposed system provides Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine (DICOM) file synchronization between system environments. We confirm the usefulness of the application based on experimental results.
