Development of an environment for information reuse on a hospital information system

An environment of information reuse on hospital information system have been discussed and some hospitals have introduced data warehouses or similar systems. In Kyoto University Hospital, we have a lot of requests from hospital colleagues that want to data of the hospital information system for clinical research or promotion of streamlining. Therefore, we introduced a environment of database users use freely, and a web service server in order to reuse data of the hospital information system. Consequently, users could do clinical researches and clinical practices on the same environment.
