Described in the paper are contents and characteristics of building smart healthcare system at a research hospital,and practices of the hospital in exploring smart healthcare.Specific measures include staged building of an e-hospital emphasizing information security; closed-loop transformation with mobile and barcode technology for higher efficiency and patient safety;optimizing the service flow with smart interconnection to create an orderly outpatient environment; implementing healthcare regulations with information systems to ensure a homogeneous medical environment;and integrating the entire medical system to promote coordinated development of regional healthcare service. These measures help upgrade the information service effectiveness and quality of care of the hospital.

In the practice of building its humanistic environment of a research hospital,Nanjing Drum Tower hospital adheres to such humanistic characteristics of the hospital as humanistic concept,planning, environment,management,service,and quality.Furthermore,the hospital upholds such keys as learning, innovation, cooperation, undertaking, competition and development. High focus, high starting point planning,persistence,and down-to-earth efforts,effectively promoting hospital development.

Based on a description of the positioning and characteristics of the hospital and its development roadblocks and mission,the authors studied practical experiences in building a research hospital.The hospital has achieved a leap-forward development thanks to its pursuit of quality as lifeline,innovative research and translation,enhancement of its role in rescue medicine innovation,and leveraging branding effect of rescue medicine.

Discussions in the paper on the role of the president of research hospitals in China probe into such ten aspects as hospital strategy,discipline construction,system operation,span of management,financial operation,marketing,quality management,legal compliance,executive capacity and hospital culture. Results of the study provide references for major challenges faced by these presidents.

The paper introduced the concept and background ofdisciplines convergingmanagement,holding that this management philosophy can encourage dialogues among disciplines in a holist concept.It is believed that with an innovative mechanism in the management and operation,such converging has initially proven its value,promoting disciplines from high refinement to coordination and synergy,supporting research hospitals in development.

An in-depth analysis of the problems found in the hierarchical medical system,found that the research hospitals should focus on the conceptions of Big Times and Big Health,initiative the task to undertake Strong grass-roots,and actively build leading model of hierarchical medical system based on the PDCA cycle.At the same time,taking the practice of the 2nd Affiliated Hospital of Harbin Medical University as an example,we propose the research hospitals should strengthen service capabilities in primary health care institutions from talent,technology,management and other aspects, so as to enhance the patient's willingness to visit the grassroots,and to promote the further deepening of our medical reformation.

This paper explored the origin,concept,characteristics and evolution of the theories on research hospitals,along with a definition of the research concept.Furthermore,it reviewed the development history of research hospitals, role models and the achievements in building research hospitals.On such basis,the author predicted the future of such hospitals,and explored their leading roles in promoting the management innovation,mode innovation and technology innovation in modern hospitals,and its role in helping to solve main challenges in health care industry and achieve enlarged health.

This article described the background,concept,characteristic and objective of the research-based nursing,systematically introducing the main measures including management mechanism, nursing service,nursing staff training,and nursing scientific development.Other areas covered include innovation management mechanism,updating service philosophy,improving nursing staff training,and constructing scientific research platform.

Aiming at building research disciplines,Xijing hospital has initially achieved a strategic transformation into a hospital with research disciplines,with such measures as scientific layout of disciplines,making of advantageous disciplines with overseas benchmarks,encouragement of potential disciplines with advantageous disciplines,promotion of medical innovation with innovative ideas,and upgrading clinical service quality with technical innovation.

The paper introduced the general picture of Xiangya Hospital in the past five years in its development of ahigh-level research hospital of international influence.Aiming at this strategic goal, the hospital proceeds by means of discipline development,talent training,research platform building, international academic exchange,performance appraisal and incentive,budget guarantee and system development.All these efforts contribute to the building of a mutual-supportive,efficient and sustainable medical science innovation system tailored to large hospitals.
