In this paper we propose a novel secure and scalable system for sharing PHRs. We focus on the multiple data owner scenario, and divide the users in the system into multiple security domains that greatly reduce the key management complexity for owners and users. A high degree of patient privacy is guaranteed by exploiting hierarchical and multi- authority attribute-sets based encryption （HM- ASBE）. Our system not only supports compound attributes due to flexible attribute sets combinations, but also achieves fine-grained access control. Our scheme supports efficient on-demand user/attribute revocation and break-glass access under emergency scenarios.展开更多

In this study, we tried to clarify the effect on patient safety of brief interventions via DPBs by pharmacists. The study design was a randomized controlled trial on pharmacies as clusters. 65 pharmacies agreed to participate in the study (intervention group (IG): 33;control group (CG): 32). The primary outcomes were: rate of inquiry occurrence, rate of prescription change, and rates of duplicate medications & drug interactions. 56 pharmacies (IG: 29;CG: 27) completed the study. There was a higher tendency for prescription changes in the IG compared to the CG (IG: 0.03%;CG: 0.02%;P = 0.08). In addition, the rate of duplicate medications & drug interactions accounting for the inquiries was significantly higher in the IG than in the CG (IG: 89.2%;CG: 71.9%;P = 0.01). This implied that brief interventions by pharmacists using DPBs had an effect in raising patient safety.展开更多
