Information system for an integrated internal control panel in support of hospital information management
Abstract
The purpose of the study was to develop an information system for the automation of the integrated control panel as an internal control tool in hospitals, thus contributing to health information management. A software application was programmed in the Embarcadero Delphi integrated development environment, using Object Pascal as programming language. Development of the information system was based on SCRUM methodology, with a list of products consisting in the set of functional and non-functional requirements to be met by the application. The software Multi-internal-control was thus developed, with a main window which includes a context menu to access all the windows in the application and enter the values of variables required to estimate the dynamic charts and indicators of each of the perspectives on the integrated control panel, obtaining the design of strategies for the improvement of the healthcare system according to the information management procedure in place at the hospital, through goal achievement indices, efficacy, efficiency and internal control components. The information system at Cuban hospital institutions is still a pending item due to the dynamics of the healthcare environment.
Key words: Information system; internal control; integrated control panel; information management; hospital institution.
