摘要：The recent focus on patient safety, care and security in hospitals has yielded a flood of new technologies aimed at improving quality of patient care. This has been due to the integration of Information and Communication Technologies in healthcare facilities. This has revolutionized the health systems and new fields of eHealth and health informatics have emerged. Health information systems are now combining physical process of healthcare delivery with medication information and applications that provide clinical decision support. One such technology is Radio Frequency Identification (RFID). Application of RFID technology in hospitals has risen dramatically during the last decade. This study focuses the use of RFID technology for managing patients and ensures better control and safety procedures. Existing patients monitoring and management solutions are expensive and rely mostly on information recalled by hospital staff. Moreover, many such applications do not track treatment, drug dosage, and diet. The paper presents a system that integrates RFID with patient data management system addressing all these drawbacks together with the classical entities in a health information system or patient data management.
