标准2025今日，澳大利亚标准协会发布了世界第一个数字化医院手册，这是由澳大利亚卫生部长咨询委员会（AHMAC）和国家卫生首席信息官论坛（NHCIOF）牵头制定的手册。
SA HB 163:2017数字化医院手册重点是通过技术提供更高效的医院服务。这是一个以人为本、以结果为导向的文件，旨在用于广泛的受众群体。
全球数字卫生项目面临诸多挑战。澳大利亚专家希望利用整合后的标准来指导卫生系统转向数字化。该手册旨在通过确保以下方面来改进此类项目的成果：
•明确阐述“数字化”医院基本原则；
•通过效益估算/实现框架，协调卫生保健设施的设计、建造和调试环节；
•确保现在和未来都可以实现创新医疗保健服务的信息通信技术（ICT）系统架构。
澳大利亚标准协会的首席执行官兼医疗技术和制药行业发展中心主席布朗维恩.埃文斯（Bronwyn Evans）博士认可这个出版物对澳大利亚的重大意义。
“我们需要将现代数码镜头应用于医院建筑、组织的护理和设计模型方面。数字化医院手册里的做法即是如此。该文件有效契合了行业政策，强调了技术对医疗行业未来发展的重要性。”
埃文斯博士说，“作为世界上第一本该类手册，它展示了澳大利亚在数字化医院方面的竞争力和创新能力。”
澳大利亚标准协会IT-039技术委员会负责数字化医院手册的制定工作，该技术委员为由均衡比例的利益相关方代表组成。
技术委员会成员包括政府、行业、学术界和卫生组织的代表。
IT-039技术委员会主席安德鲁.P.霍华德（Andrew P Howard）博士解释了该手册的发布背景和影响。
“许多澳大利亚医院数十年来一直在努力提高自身的数字化成熟程度。然而，早期采用数字化的医院表示，一些项目的成本更高，耗时更长，效果也不太理想，还不如弃之不用。”
“SA HB 163可为各种不同背景的利益相关方提供务实的解决方案。”霍华德博士说，“通过聚焦于公众和结果，我们希望该手册能够在私人和公共卫生系统在规划数字化过渡过程中得到广泛的应用。
New Australian publication to accelerate digital hospitals
Today, Standards Australia published a world first digital hospitals handbook, an initiative led by the Australian Health Ministers' Advisory Council (AHMAC) and the National Health CIO Forum (NHCIOF).
SA HB 163:2017, Digital Hospitals Handbook, focuses on delivering more efficient hospital services through the use of technology.
It is a people and outcomes focused document intended for use across a broad audience.
Digital health projects across the globe have faced challenges. Australian experts wanted a consolidated reference to guide health systems as they move to digital. The handbook aims to improve the outcomes of these types of projects by ensuring:
• Clear articulation of the underlying principles for a “digital hospital”
• Alignment with the design, construction and commissioning of healthcare facilities through a benefits estimation/realisation framework
• An ICT systems architecture that enables innovative healthcare services now and into the future
Dr Bronwyn Evans, CEO of Standards Australia and Chair of the Industry Growth Centre for Medical Technologies and Pharmaceuticals, recognised the significance of this publication for Australia.
“We need to apply a contemporary digital lens over the model of care and design of buildings and organisations. The Digital Hospitals Handbook does just that.
“The document effectively aligns with industry policy, addressing the importance of technology for the sector’s future. As the first of its kind in the world, it showcases Australia’s competitiveness and capacity for innovation,” said Dr Evans.
Standards Australia technical committee IT-039, which is responsible for the development of the Digital Hospitals Handbook, is constituted of a balanced representation of stakeholder interests.
The membership includes representatives from government, industry, academic and health organisations.
Chair of the technical committee IT-039, Dr Andrew P Howard, explained the background and impact of the handbook.
“Australian hospitals have been improving their digital maturity for decades. However, early adopters show some projects have cost more, taken longer and been less effective than was otherwise possible.
“SA HB 163 presents pragmatic solutions for stakeholders of all backgrounds. By focusing on people and outcomes our hope is it will be widely leveraged by private and public health systems as they plan their digital transitions,” said Dr Howard.
