Abstract
Contemporary Web-based architectures can help us address the technological and architectural challenges inherent to modern personal health record (PHR) systems. Current research in the area of healthcare informatics has focused on incorporating Web-based technology for PHR systems´ primary functions. This special issue presents work in this area of research. First, however, let´s look at how PHR systems are defined, examine possible barriers to their widespread adoption.
