BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0027] For ease of explanation, the present invention is described in detail with reference to the following specific implementations and accompanying drawings.

[0028] Figure 1 It is a flow chart of the comprehensive medical record information management method of the present invention. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0029] Example:

[0030] like Figure 1 As shown, this specific embodiment adopts the following technical solutions:

[0031] A method and system for managing comprehensive medical record information in a military hospital, comprising the following steps:

[0032] S1. Medical record information collection: Through various terminal devices in the hospital, such as doctor workstations, nurse stations, and examination department equipment, collect patient basic information, diagnosis information, treatment information, examination and test results, and other medical record data. During collection, perform preliminary verification on the data to ensure its integrity and accuracy;

[0033] S2. Data encryption: Encrypt the collected medical record data. A symmetric encryption algorithm (such as the AES algorithm) is used in combination with an asymmetric encryption algorithm to encrypt the medical record data to obtain encrypted data. The public key of the recipient is then used to encrypt the key of the symmetric encryption algorithm to obtain the key ciphertext.

[0034] S3. Permission setting and allocation: Different access rights are set according to the different roles and responsibilities of hospital personnel. Roles include but are not limited to doctors, nurses, administrators, and higher-level health department personnel. Each role is assigned corresponding permissions. For example, doctors can view and modify the medical records of their patients, nurses can view basic nursing information and some treatment information of patients, and administrators have the highest management authority, including user management, permission allocation, data backup, etc. Permission setting adopts the role-based access control (RBAC) model, and the correspondence between roles and permissions is recorded in the permission table.

[0035] S4. Data storage: The encrypted medical record data is stored in the hospital's medical record database. The database adopts a distributed storage architecture to improve data storage capacity and access efficiency. At the same time, the database is backed up regularly to ensure data security and recoverability.

[0036] S5. Data Query and Access: When a user needs to query medical record information, the system first verifies the user's identity and permissions. The user enters their username and password. After identity authentication, the system determines the scope of medical record data the user can access and the operation permissions based on the user's role and permissions. For legitimate query requests, the system retrieves the encrypted medical record data from the database, decrypts the data using the corresponding private key, and provides the decrypted information to the user.

[0037] S6. Data Update and Modification: When a doctor or nurse needs to update or modify medical record information, the system will verify the user's authority again. Only users with the corresponding modification permissions can perform the operation. After the modification operation is completed, the system automatically records the modification time, modification person, and modification content, forming an operation log for audit and traceability.

[0038] S7. Data security audit: Regularly conduct security audits on access to and operations of medical record information. Audit content includes user login records, access time, accessed data objects, operation types, etc. Audit logs can be used to promptly identify abnormal access behaviors and security risks, and appropriate measures can be taken to address them.

[0039] S8. Data Sharing and Transmission: When medical record data needs to be shared with other hospitals or higher-level health departments, the system encrypts the shared data according to the preset sharing rules and permissions and transmits it through a secure network channel. After receiving the data, the recipient uses the corresponding key to decrypt it to ensure the security of the data during transmission;

[0040] S9. Data destruction: For medical record data that has exceeded its retention period or needs to be destroyed for other reasons, the system will destroy the data according to the prescribed process; confirmation will be carried out before destruction to ensure that only useless data is destroyed. The destruction process will use a secure method, such as multiple overwriting, to prevent data recovery;

[0041] S10. System maintenance and update: Regularly maintain and update the medical record information management system, including software version updates, hardware equipment inspections, security vulnerability repairs, etc., to ensure the stability, security and functional integrity of the system.

[0042] Among them, data encryption strength calculation: In order to evaluate the security of the encryption algorithm, the encryption strength calculation formula is adopted: E = log2(N) × K, where E represents the encryption strength, N represents the number of possible key combinations, and K represents the key length. This formula can be used to calculate the encryption strength of different encryption algorithms to ensure that the appropriate encryption algorithm is selected.

[0043] Among them, the authority allocation weight calculation: when allocating authority, the user's authority weight is calculated based on factors such as the user's role, responsibilities and years of work experience. The calculation formula is: W = α × R + β × D + γ × Y, where W represents the authority weight, R represents the role weight (different roles are assigned different basic weights), D represents the responsibility weight (according to specific job responsibilities, the corresponding weight is assigned), and Y represents the years of work weight (the longer the years of work, the higher the weight), α, β, and γ are weight coefficients, and α + β + γ = 1; this formula can be used to more reasonably allocate user authority.

[0044] A comprehensive medical record information management system for military hospitals, comprising:

[0045] Medical record information collection module: used to collect medical record data from various terminal devices in the hospital and perform preliminary verification to ensure the integrity and accuracy of the data. This module includes a data input interface, a data verification unit, etc.

[0051] Security audit module: used to conduct security audits on access to and operations of medical record information and record audit logs. This module includes an audit monitoring unit, a log storage unit, an audit analysis unit, etc.

[0052] Data sharing module: used to share medical record data with other hospitals or higher-level health departments, encrypt the data according to preset sharing rules and permissions, and transmit it through a secure network channel. This module includes a sharing interface, a sharing rule management unit, a secure transmission unit, etc.

[0053] Data destruction module: used to safely destroy medical record data that has exceeded its retention period or needs to be destroyed, and operates according to the prescribed process. This module includes a destruction application unit, a destruction confirmation unit, and a destruction execution unit;

[0054] System maintenance module: used to maintain and update the medical record information management system, including software version updates, hardware equipment inspections, security vulnerability repairs, etc. This module includes a maintenance interface, version management unit, equipment monitoring unit, etc.

[0055] In summary:

[0056] In various departments of military hospitals, doctors input patients' diagnosis information and treatment plans through doctor workstations. Nurses use nurse workstations to record patients' care information and changes in their condition. Equipment in examination departments automatically uploads test results to the system. The collection module performs format and logic checks on the input data, such as checking whether the patient number is unique and whether the diagnosis result complies with the standard, to ensure data integrity and accuracy.

[0057] After collecting medical record data, the data encryption module first encrypts the data using the AES algorithm. The key length of the AES algorithm can be selected as 128 bits, 192 bits, or 256 bits, depending on the sensitivity of the data. The AES key is then encrypted using the recipient's public key. The public and private keys are generated using an asymmetric encryption algorithm (such as the RSA algorithm). After receiving the data, the recipient uses their own private key to decrypt the data to obtain the AES key, and then uses the AES key to decrypt the medical record data.

[0058] System administrators set up different roles based on the actual situation of the hospital, such as chief physician, attending physician, nurse, system administrator, etc., and assign corresponding permissions to each role. For example, chief physicians can view and modify the medical records of all patients, attending physicians can only view and modify the medical records of patients they are responsible for, and nurses can only view the patient's nursing information and some treatment information. When assigning permissions, the user's permission weight is calculated using the permission allocation weight calculation formula based on the user's years of work and responsibilities to ensure the rationality of permission allocation;

[0059] The data storage module stores encrypted medical record data in a distributed database. The distributed database consists of multiple server nodes, and data is stored in each node in a dispersed manner, which improves the storage capacity and access efficiency of the data. At the same time, the system automatically backs up the database every day, and the backup data is stored in a dedicated storage device to ensure data recoverability.

[0060] When a doctor needs to query a patient's medical records, he or she enters the user name and password on the system login interface. After verification by the identity authentication module, the system determines the scope of patients and data content that can be accessed based on the doctor's role and permissions. The doctor enters the query criteria, such as the patient's name, hospitalization number, etc. The data query module retrieves the encrypted medical record data from the database, decrypts it using the corresponding private key, and displays the decrypted information on the doctor's workstation screen.

[0061] When a doctor needs to modify a patient's diagnosis, the system first verifies the doctor's authority. Only doctors with modification authority can perform the operation. After the modification is completed, the system automatically records the modification time, modification person, and modification content to form an operation log. The operation log is stored in the log storage unit of the security audit module for subsequent audit and tracing.

[0062] The security audit module analyzes the system's access and operation logs daily to check for abnormal access behaviors, such as multiple failed login attempts or access to unauthorized data. Once abnormal behavior is detected, the system immediately issues an alarm and notifies the system administrator to handle the situation. At the same time, the audit analysis unit regularly generates audit reports to assess the system's security status.

[0063] When medical record data needs to be shared with higher-level health departments, the data sharing module determines the scope and permissions of the shared data based on the preset sharing rules, encrypts the shared data, and transmits it through a secure VPN network channel. After receiving the data, the higher-level health department uses the corresponding key to decrypt it and obtain the medical record information;

[0064] For medical record data that has exceeded its retention period, the data destruction module will first issue a destruction notice and notify relevant personnel for confirmation. After confirmation, the data in the database will be overwritten multiple times according to the prescribed destruction process to ensure that the data cannot be recovered.

[0065] The system maintenance module regularly checks the software version. If a new version is released, it automatically downloads and installs the update package. At the same time, it inspects the hardware devices, checks the operating status of the server, the capacity of the storage device, etc., to ensure the normal operation of the hardware devices. Any security vulnerabilities found are repaired in a timely manner to improve the security of the system.

[0066] While embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions, and variations may be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the invention, and that the scope of the invention is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
