[Implementation of integrated hospital information system in the existing hospital organization--experience at Dubrava Clinical Hospital in Zagreb].

In the modern hospital information systems govern extremely important functions such as patient management, control of work flows, administration, etc., with a great variety of recommended standards used in functional integration of healthcare information systems. The main parts of the original idea of the integrated Hospital Information System have been implemented at Dubrava University Hospital in Zagreb through several phases, resulting in data production covering distinct areas of hospital administration. This paper describes the basic idea of information, organization problems and steps taken in the implementation. International standards in communication have been implemented in the system.
