DIGITAL TRANSFORMATION IN MEDICINE: FROM FORMALIZED MEDICAL DOCUMENTS TO INFORMATION TECHNOLOGIES OF DIGITAL MEDICINE

Introduction. According to the Concept of Ukraine`s Digital Economy and Society Development in 2018-2020, the key components of “digitalization” are the development of digital infrastructure — broadband Internet throughout Ukraine, and the promotion of digital transformations in various sectors of the economy and society, including medicine.

The purpose of the paper is to analyze the stages of digital transformation in medicine and the results of authors and their colleagues of the MIS department for the development of information technologies of digital medicine.

Results. A generated model of digital transformation in medicine is presented and several main stages of this transformation are highlighted: І — digital transformation of primary medical information; ІІ — development of support systems for the diagnostic and treatment process; ІІІ — development of technologies and systems for supporting the physicians` activities with digital information; IV — mobile medicine; V — the digital medicine globalization. The method of determining the markers of the functional state of the cardiovascular system based on mathematical models of forecasting and classification with the use of Data Mining is proposed. The method allows detecting and determining the prognostic values of ECG parameters of the CVS functional state for different groups of patients. The developed IT for supporting the processes of receiving, transmitting and storing digital medical images is aimed at ensuring the effective operation of a physician with digital information from various sources: functional diagnostic complexes, digital medical data storage and images using Picture Archiving and Communication Systems (PACS) and cloud technologies . The proposed telemedicine systems theory including the formulated principles of organizing these systems, criteria and methods for analyzing digital medical data has been implemented for elaborating and functioning the Telemedicine Centre. It enables to cover the population in more than 20 Ukraine`s regions with qualified medical assistance.

Conclusions. The digital transformation in medicine like any new process takes place with a gradual complication of tasks, methods and means of their implementation: from formalization of primary medical information to improvement of methods of its analysis, transfer and storage to improve the quality of medical care for patients at any point of the world.

Keywords: digital transformation in medicine, formalized medical records, Data Mining, IT for assessing human state and physiological systems` state, telemedicine, m-medicine.
