Medical Integration Environment

	Medical Integration Environment Medical integration environment (MIE) are specialised tools designed to simplify the sharing of medical and related data between medical equipment and electronic health records. Technically, they are similar to an Enterprise Service Bus but with several extra features allowing for legacy systems that do not use web services messaging. Typically, they use Java Message Service; most Enterprise Application Integration systems can be modified to be used as an MIE but may lack the crucial HL7 and Arden syntax Arden syntax is a markup language designed for representing and sharing medical knowledge in a standardized, executable format. It is primarily used by clinical decision support systems to generate alerts, interpretations, and manage information ... for storing medical knowledge.

picture info	Enterprise Service Bus An enterprise service bus (ESB) implements a communication system between mutually interacting software applications in a service-oriented architecture (SOA). It represents a software architecture for distributed computing, and is a special variant of the more general client-server model, wherein any application may behave as server or client. ESB promotes agility and flexibility with regard to high-level protocol communication between applications. Its primary use is in enterprise application integration (EAI) of heterogeneous and complex service landscapes. Architecture The concept of the enterprise service bus is analogous to the Bus (computing), bus concept found in Computer architecture, computer hardware architecture combined with the modular and concurrent design of high-performance computer operating systems. The motivation for the development of the architecture was to find a standard, structured, and general purpose concept for describing implementation of Loose couplin ...

	Java Message Service The Jakarta Messaging API (formerly Java Message Service or JMS API) is a Java application programming interface (API) for message-oriented middleware. It provides generic messaging models, able to handle the producer–consumer problem, that can be used to facilitate the sending and receiving of messages between software systems. Jakarta Messaging is a part of Jakarta EE and was originally defined by a specification developed at Sun Microsystems before being guided by the Java Community Process. General idea of messaging Messaging is a form of '' loosely coupled'' distributed communication, where in this context the term 'communication' can be understood as an exchange of messages between software components. Message-oriented technologies attempt to relax ''tightly coupled'' communication (such as TCP network sockets, CORBA or RMI) by the introduction of an intermediary component. This approach allows software components to communicate with each other indirectly. Benefit ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu]
	Arden Syntax Arden syntax is a markup language designed for representing and sharing medical knowledge in a standardized, executable format. It is primarily used by clinical decision support systems to generate alerts, interpretations, and manage information presented to clinicians. This allows for the consistent and efficient application of clinical and scientific knowledge within and across healthcare institutions. The core units of knowledge representation in Arden syntax are Medical Logic Modules (MLMs), which contain the logic necessary to make a single medical decision. These MLMs are triggered by event monitors within clinical systems when specific conditions arise. For example, an MLM might be written to detect a potential drug interaction. It would contain the logic to check if a patient is currently prescribed two medications known to interact negatively. If the conditions are met (i.e., the patient is on both medications), the MLM could trigger an alert to the clinician, providing ...
