The paper elaborates on the design thinking of the outpatient intelligent medicine delivery system under the two parallel Hospital Information Systems (HIS) of the Central Hospital of Wuhan and implements the distribution of medicine delivery windows based on the multi-channel payment methods of the old HIS outpatient system and the preplanned and real-time intelligent medicine delivery based on the new HIS pharmacy system.Using the integrated platform of Ensemble and services of Web Service,it realizes the data interaction among multiple systems.The system operates steadily and the new HIS is well connected with the old.Thus,the efficiency can be enhanced and the quality can be ensured.

Background Diurnal temperature range (DTR) is closely associated with cardiovascular health in the elderly, but there is a lack of research on the relationship between DTR and ischemic heart disease (IHD) in the elderly. Objective To investigate the effect of DTR on daily hospital admissions for IHD in people 65 years and older in Wuhan. Methods The study obtained data on elderly inpatients with IHD from all secondary and tertiary hospitals in Wuhan between January 1, 2017 and December 31, 2018, along with synchronous meteorological and air pollution data. Daily DTR was calculated as the difference between the maximum and minimum temperatures in a day. We employed distributed lag nonlinear models based on quasi-Poisson distribution to analyze the association between DTR and hospitalization risk in individuals aged 60 years and above. We assessed the extreme effects of DTR by selected DTR percentiles (the 1st percentile, P1: 1.8 ℃; the 5th percentile, P5: 2.9 ℃; the 95th percentile, P95: 14.3 ℃; and the 99th percentile, P99: 16.2 ℃) on hospitalization for IHD in the elderly population. Additionally, we conducted stratified analyses by gender, age (60-74 years and ≥75 years) and different subtypes (acute IHD and chronic IHD) to investigate the effects of DTR on hospitalizations for IHD across different genders, ages, and subtypes. Results This study included a total of
