Abstract: A dialysis system includes include a home dialysis machine and a home gateway device in communication with a cloud-based application via a connected health system. The gateway device has voice recognition capabilities. A user can provide spoken information to the gateway device, and the gateway device can cause one or more actions to be performed. The gateway device may cause a dialysis function to be performed by the dialysis machine, or data to be input into the dialysis machine. The gateway device can also communicate with one or more other systems (e.g., remote systems) via the cloud-based application. In some examples, the cloud-based application can communicate with an order management system to allow the user to order medical supplies (e.g., for use with the dialysis machine) via the gateway device. The gateway device can provide two-way conversational capability (e.g., back and forth communication) between the user and the gateway device.

Abstract: A mechanism is provided in a data processing system comprising at least one processor and at least one memory, the at least one memory comprising instructions which are executed by the at least one processor and configure the processor to implement a healthcare blockchain framework for enforcing regulatory compliance in healthcare cloud solutions.

Abstract: A method and system may provide an automated pharmacy processing system which automatically processes an electronic prescription by converting the electronic prescription into a pharmacy prescription record. In this way, an electronic prescription can be filled by a pharmacist without manual data entry. The system receives an electronic prescription and compares data from the electronic prescription with entries in one or more pharmacy database(s). When there is a match between the electronic prescription data and an entry in the one or more pharmacy database(s), the system populates the pharmacy prescription record with data from the matching pharmacy database entry. If all of the data fields from the pharmacy prescription record have been populated the pharmacist can fill the electronic prescription.

Abstract: Since the final output for medical imaging is the radiology report, the quality of which is largely dependent on the radiologist, there is a need for a comprehensive system for both medical imaging and reporting. Imaging and radiology reporting are combined. Image acquisition, reading of the images, and reporting are linked, allowing feedback of readings to control acquisition so that the final reporting is more comprehensive. Clinical findings typically associated with reporting may be used automatically to feedback for further or continuing acquisition without requiring a radiologist. A clinical identification may be used to determine what image processing to perform for reading, and/or raw (i.e., non-reconstructed) scan data from the imaging system are provided for integrated image processing with report generation.
