The national policy on high-quality development of hospitals proposes to strengthen information technology support and actively promote the multi-disciplinary team (MDT) model. How to use the “Internet Plus” technology and operation mode to promote MDT communication and improve the efficiency of diagnosis and treatment in the digital and intelligent information age is a direction worthy of attention and research. This paper systematically reviews the current development status of MDT informatization construction at home and abroad. Based on the current challenges and opportunities, it makes prospects for the future development of MDT informatization construction from the aspects of strengthening the digital and intelligent support of MDT operation, connecting MDT “information silos”, and deepening the construction of MDT supervision and effect evaluation system, etc.

Objective To investigate the current status of clinical and research developments in Lanzhou University in China, to provide reference data for establishing a coordinated, multi-sectional, research orientated and internationally competitive program in biomedical sciences. Methods Three types of questionnaire containing 57 items were designed for 8 secondary departments in clinical and basic sciences. Another type of questionnaire was distributed to 200 clinicians, researchers, lecturers, and administrators in both clinical and basic sciences from August to September 2005. We searched SCI, CSCD, CSTPCD, CBM and CNKI for research articles published by Lanzhou University, commercial development of research derived from the University, and general and competitiveness evaluations of the University. In addition, seminars, site visits, and expert interviews were also conducted.Results The response rates for the questionnaires were 100% and 91% respectively. The investigation included the identification and evaluation of research and clinical departments, human resources in the three branches of biomedical sciences (clinical, research and education), including academic title, educational background, age distribution, research area and funding (leading investigators included), and publication records. The numbers of undergraduate and graduate students and their CET-4 score (pass rate) were also analyzed. Based on the information obtained, six secondary databases were established and evaluated..Conclusions The merger of Lanzhou University and Lanzhou Medical College has created an opportunity for further development in biomedical research and clinical science. Facing new challenges and difficulties, we should take this responsibility to work together to make the University a national and international center of clinical, research and education in medical sciences.
The social needs, disciplinary development and humanistic reflection has promoted the emergence and development of evidence-based medicine. Moreover, evidence-based medicine-problems oriented research, evidence based decision, transferring results to practice and outcome evaluation-continues to meet society demands, promote the development of discipline and show humanist concern. The application of evidence-based medicine has gradually extended from the field of clinical medicine to the public health, society, management, economy, policy research and education in the process of solving various problems. The high quality evidence has also been important to decision-making in these fields. Our study explored the emergence and development of evidence-based medicine from the perspective of social needs, disciplinary development and humanistic reflection for the first time.
With the rapid development of information technology, medical reforms in various countries are moving towards informatization, and internet medical projects have been carried out gradually. Internet hospitals, as one of the manifestations of internet medical projects, have the advantages of improving the efficiency of medical services, revitalizing and effectively sinking high-quality medical resources, and therefore has become the focus of China’s next stage of medical reform. However, internet hospitals are innovative and local products of China, leading its practices lack of domestic and foreign theoretical research, as well as experience, which results in government policies and hospital management strategies are both moving forward in groping, and the construction outcomes vary. Therefore, this article aims to analyze the comprehensive dilemmas currently confronted by internet hospitals in China in different stages of construction, operation and management based on PDCA cycle, and thus, puts forward corresponding construction thinking and analysis in a targeted manner, and proposes guidance for the further development of internet hospitals.
Objective To investigate the current status of higher education of allied health professions (AHPs), professional human resource as well as the career development of allied health professionals, and to provide references for the planning of higher education of AHPs in China. Methods Literature was reviewed in relation to the current status of higher education of AHPs and professional human resource in China. A questionnaire survey was conducted to determine the career development conditions of allied health professionals. Results a) Currently, the higher education of AHPs in China was faced with such problems as a limited scale, a lower structural level, and an absent degree system. b) The number of allied health professionals was small with lower qualifications. Higher-end professionals were in shortage. C) The professionals saw multiples glass ceilings over career orientation, academic advancement, and professional entitlement. Conclusion Efforts should be made to expand the scale of higher education of AHPs, elevate degree structure, and to construct a professional education system with multiple layers and categories. The professional education should be combined with the career development for planning and collaboration to provide assurance for the career development of the professional in China.
