The purpose of this article is to identify mechanisms that may contribute to preserving the privacy of patient information contained in the electronic medical record. The research strategy is exploratory-descriptive, using Document Analysis and Case Study. A set of 20 documents, related to laws, manuals and standards, was analyzed and conducted case studies in two hospitals, preceded by a pilot case study. The cases were studied through semi-structured interviews, analysis of internal documents and occasional observation. In one of the stages of the research we have identification and analysis of regulatory and normative documents. And as a final result, the identification of the mechanisms that the hospitals surveyed use for information privacy. The most used mechanisms are those of processes in relation to the safeguard and those of relationship in relation to the awareness of the collaborators. As contribution, the article shows the need to strengthen the discussion of the theme for the academy. As well, a list of documents and mainly a list of mechanisms that can contribute to the protection of the information in the health area.

Nurses Perceptions

Introduction: Nurses are among the largest potential users of electronic medical record (EMR) systems in health care settings. Yet little is known about their perceptions and confidence toward using such systems. This study explored nurses’ perceptions toward and confidence in using the EMR system. Predictors for confidence status in using the system among nurses were postulated. Methods: A cross-sectional survey design was used. A sample of 169 nurses were recruited from a general governmental university hospital in Muscat, Oman. Results: Most of study participants did not have prior experience with EMR systems elsewhere. About half (52.1%) perceived that they were confident in using the system. A logistic regression model showed nurses who (a) had six or more years of experience in using the system, (b) perceived that their suggestions regarding improving the system were taken into consideration by the system managing team, (c) perceived that the changes introduced in the system were important to their work, and (d) perceived that the information retrieved through the system was updated, to be more likely confident in using the system. Discussion: When customizing the EMR system, the informatics team that manages the system is invited to more consider suggestions for improvement that are raised by nurses. More training on the system is suggested to increase confidence among nurses who had little experience in using the system. In order to enhance the preparation of future nurses with contemporary technology-driven health care practices, nursing schools officials are encouraged to include general computer information technology training into nursing curricula.
