Introduction: In order to the implementation of “SEPAS" which is the development of electronic health Records in Iran, the creation and documentation of the essential data in the HIS seems necessary. The purpose of this study was to evaluate comptability of the hospital information systems (HIS) in Kerman teaching, Private and Social Security hospitals with minimum clinical data set developed by Iran’s Ministry of Health. Method: This study was a descriptive cross-sectional study. The checklist developed by the Ministry of Health was used to evaluate the compliance with minimum data set (MDS) in 5 HISs of 9 teaching, private and social security hospitals. The study was conducted in the second half of 2014 in the City of Kerman, Iran. Results: The results showed that, software No.2 had the highest conformity level (%100) for the “medication and medical consumables data”, and (%97) in “Paraclinical data”, software No.5 had the lowest conformity levels (%79) and (%86) for the two forgoing indexes, respectively. It was also found that none of the HISs contained sub-categories of “diagnosis & death” data set including data on the “morphology of neoplasm” as well as “the place and time of death”. Conclusion: Given the importance of the MDS in integrating the data relating to the patients, implementation of the MDS developed by the Ministry of Health in the HISs is quite substantial by the system’s developers as well as ensuring its registration by the system users in the medical centers. http://jhbmi.ir/article-1-120-en.pdf Minimum Data Set Hospital Information System Standardization Documentation per دانشگاه علوم پزشکی کرمان Journal of Health and Biomedical Informatics 2423-3870 2423-3498 2016-03 2 4 211 218 article Simin Shariat simin@gmail.com 1 Seyed mehdi Kalantar 2 Seyed Hossein Hekmati Moghadam 3 Hengameh Zandi 4 Ali Jebali alijebal2011@gmail.com 5 yazd medical science Ph.D. in Nanotechnology, Assistant Professor of Medical Nanotechnology, Advanced Medical Sciences and Technologies Dept., School of Para medicine, Shahid Sadoughi University of Medical Sciences, Yazd, Iran. Introduction: Using antisense oligonucleotides  for targeting essential genes is one of the new methods to control microbial infections. The aim of this study was to investigate four antisense oligonucleotides against rpoD gene of staphylococcus aurous, and to find the probable match in human genes. Method: First, rpoD gene of staphylococcus aurous was extracted from NCBI (National Center for Biotechnology Information) database. Then, its mRNA sequence was generated and four antisense were selected according to secondary structure of mRNA and thermodynamic parameters. Finally, matching of each selected antisense and all human genome with Nblast algorithm, was evaluated. Results: This study showed that according to secondary structure and thermodynamic parameters, antisense 1, GAAGAAGTTGGTA, was the best antisense, and had the least Overall ∆G. Matching antisense sequences showed that antisense 1, 2, and 4 had different targets at human mRNA level. But, antisense 3, GAAGCAATTAATT, was ideal and could target only rpoD gene. Conclusion: Given to secondary structure and thermodynamic parameters, the adequate antisense could be selected for target gene, but most of these antisense targeting other genes in human cells. http://jhbmi.ir/article-1-119-en.pdf Oligonucleotide Staphylococcus aureus Gene Secondary structure Human Gene per دانشگاه علوم پزشکی کرمان Journal of Health and Biomedical Informatics 2423-3870 2423-3498 2016-03 2 4 219 228 article Peivand Bastani peivandbastani@hotmail.com 1 Ali Garavand Virya67@yahoo.com 2 Shahabeddin Abhari shahabeddin.abhari@gmail.com 3 - - MSc Student in Health Information Technology, Health Human Resources Research Center, School of Management & Information Sciences, Shiraz University of Medical Sciences, Shiraz, Iran. Introduction: Internet booking system effectively reduces patient’s waiting time and increase patient satisfaction with health care centers, so the rate of using it is increased. The aim of this study was the evaluation of the internet booking websites of the Universities of Medical Sciences in Iran. Method: This study is a descriptive cross-sectional study which was conducted in 2014. Data was collected through a self-designed check list and study of health care center’s websites (hospitals and clinics). Excel 2007 software was used to summarize and report data. Results: Findings showed that only 9% of the health care centers in the country using internet booking systems. Rayavaran Company more than other companies has worked in design and implementation of such systems. Also, the mean score of “user friendly” of available websites was 4.4. Among the studied centers, internet booking systems of Mashhad University of Medical Sciences had the best status. Conclusion: Most of the health care centers do not use the internet booking websites. The available websites have the capabilities such as search, getting information, giving tracking code and independent port, and the abilities including change or cancel the appointment and useful links are used less in websites. So, it is suggested that the authorities increase the use of internet booking websites in health care centers in the country. http://jhbmi.ir/article-1-118-en.pdf Evaluation Website Internet Booking Hospitals and Clinics Iran per دانشگاه علوم پزشکی کرمان Journal of Health and Biomedical Informatics 2423-3870 2423-3498 2016-03 2 4 240 247 article Yousef Mehdipour saeidebrahimi9@gmail.com 1 Saeid Ebrahimi saeidebrahimi9@gmail.com 2 Sepideh Seyedabadi saeidebrahimi9@gmail.com 3 Ezzatolah Farhadi 4 M.Sc. in Health Information Technology, Lecturer of Health Information Technology Dept., Zahedan University of Medical Sciences, Zahedan, Iran Introduction: Health care is a very vital field which the slightest error, such as medical errors may due to irreparable damage to the patient’s life. Therefore, information technology is useful for improving hospital performance and providing qualified services for patients. Method: This analytical- descriptive and cross sectional study was conducted in 2015. The study population were all employees and specialists in pathology laboratories in Zahedan and Iranshahr city which 77 of them were selected randomly as a sample size. Data were collected using researcher-made questionnaire which its reliability and validity were confirmed. The data were analyzed using SPSS software version 21. Results: The findings indicated that the mean score of laboratory workers' skills was 2/13 of 5 and the mean score of awareness to RFID technology was 2/70. In addition, the mean score of participants' attitude towards the technology was 3/50 which represent a positive attitude. Conclusion: Because the use of this technology is new in the field of health care, it can be concluded personnel are not familiar with this technology and its benefits, and they are hesitant to use it. Also, due to the lack of familiarity and support of senior management, employees are reluctant to use information technology. http://jhbmi.ir/article-1-127-en.pdf Tracking Radio Frequency Identification technology Laboratory Centers Attitude Quality Improvement per دانشگاه علوم پزشکی کرمان Journal of Health and Biomedical Informatics 2423-3870 2423-3498 2016-03 2 4 248 256 article Farahnaz Sadoughi f-sadoughi@iums.ac.ir 1 Maryam Ahmadi m-ahmadi@iums.ac.ir 2 Mehraban Shahi shahimehraban@gail.com 3 Nasrin Davari Dolatabadi davarinn@gmail.com 4 IUMS IUMS Ph.D. in Health Information Management ,Assistant professor of Health Information Management Dept., Health Information Management Research Center, Hormozgan University of Medical Sciences, Bandar Abbas, Iran.
