  1. Architecture for aWeb-Based Clinical Information System that Keeps the Design Openand the Access Closed James J. Cimino, Soumitra Sengupta, Paul D. Clayton, Vimla L. Patel, Andre Kushniruk,Xiaoli Huang - Department of Medical Informatics, Columbia University Centre for Medical Education, McGill University

  2. Task • Create a secure Web-based clinical information system interface... ... for patients (PatCIS) • Create an environment that will facilitate the rapid prototyping and simplified integration that is conducive to testing new ideas

  3. Open Architecture • Simplify integration • Take care of security tasks • Track usage • Support evaluation

  4. Closed Access • Authorization: • One-user, one-patient authorization • Authentication: • User ID and password • SecurID token • Secure Socket Layer encryption • Single-use "log on" form • Session ID • Short time-out • Long time-out • Log out

  5. User Interface Design • Netscape Navigator 4.x • Constant set of main function classes • "Sub-buttons" are customizable • Low-tech, minimal “flash”

  17. Integration of Components • Applications linked to "Sub-Buttons" • Infobuttons inserted into applications

  18. The Rules 1 - Javascript function handles HREF links 2 - "CGI" hidden variable passed to patcis.cgi 3 - Hidden variables: MRN, USER, SESSION 4 - SYSLOG if accessing clinical database 5 - Open new window where appropriate 6 - Include return code in dynamic documents

  19. Hypertext Links in PatCIS Instead of:<a href="mydoc.html">Click Here</a> Use:<a href='javascript:parent.titleWin.document.FF.CGI.value="mydoc.html";parent.titleWin.document.FF.submit();'>Click Here</a>

  20. CGI Calls in PatCIS Instead of:<FORM action="myapplication.cgi" name="Click Here" method="post"><INPUT type="SUBMIT" name="SUBMIT" value="My Button"></FORM> Use:<FORM action="patcis.cgi" name="Click Here" method="post"><INPUT type="SUBMIT" name="SUBMIT" value="My Button"><INPUT type="HIDDEN" name="CGI" value="myapplication.cgi"><INPUT type="HIDDEN" name="USER" value="sandcar"><INPUT type="HIDDEN" name="MRN" value="3131313"><INPUT type="HIDDEN" name="SESSION" value="349860623"></FORM>

  21. Exploitation of Web Resources • Patient education sites • Newsgroups • Diabetes • PatCIS users • Targeted resources • Pubmed • Micromedex • Decision support systems • Body mass index calculator • Cholesterol guideline

  22. Evaluation • Log-on "Questionnaire of the Day" • Usage log • Phone interviews • Usability laboratory

  23. Experience with Our Design • Application integration is easy • Maintenance is nontrivial • Major revision: blocking parts of the EMR

  24. Mission Accomplished • Open Architecture - Integration is simple - Security tasks managed - Tracks usage - Supports evaluation • Closed Access - Authorization: modified by MD - Security: continuous authentication
