What Are the Challenges in Managing Pediatric Patient Data?
Managing pediatric patient data comes with its own set of challenges:
Data Privacy: Ensuring the confidentiality of patient data is crucial, especially for minors. Data Accuracy: Inaccurate data can lead to misdiagnosis and improper treatment. Integration: Combining data from various sources (EHRs, paper records, apps) into a single, coherent system. Interoperability: Ensuring different healthcare systems can exchange and use patient data effectively. Parental Involvement: Parents need to be actively involved in the data collection process, which can sometimes be challenging.
