Integrated health information systems framework in post natal care for modern and traditional Malay medicine

The overall aim of this research is to produce an integrated health information systems framework for Traditional Malay Medicine (TMM) and modern medicine in the field of postnatal care. A qualitative study based on grounded theory was conducted via healthcare experts in the field of modern medicine...

A qualitative study based on grounded theory was conducted via healthcare experts in the field of modern medicine, Traditional Malay Medicine, and information technology (IT) subject matter experts. This research examined health information systems applications in modern and traditional medicine systems, provide an overview of TMM services in Malaysia and critically analyse the existing electronic health records structures and interoperability standards available.

An information model was then developed from the set of critical data attributes. A common TMM data attributes in postnatal care may assist in making the proposed framework more flexible and interoperable, particularly when applied with relevant healthcare interoperability standards.
