Electronic health record (EHR) is increasingly being implemented in many developing countries. It is the need of the hour because it improves the quality of health care and is also cost-effective. Technologies can introduce some hazards hence safety of information in the system is a real challenge. Recent news of security breaches has put a question mark on this system. Despite its increased usefulness, and increasing enthusiasm in its adoption, not much attention is being paid to the ethical issues that might arise. Securing EHR with an encrypted password is a probable option. The purpose of this article is to discuss the various ethical issues arising in the use of the EHRs and their possible solutions.
电子健康记录（EHR）在许多发展中国家正越来越多地得到应用。这是当务之急，因为它提高了医疗保健质量且具有成本效益。技术可能会带来一些风险，因此系统中信息的安全是一项真正的挑战。最近有关安全漏洞的新闻给这个系统带来了疑问。尽管其有用性不断提高，且采用它的热情也在增加，但对于可能出现的伦理问题却没有给予太多关注。使用加密密码保护电子健康记录是一种可能的选择。本文的目的是讨论在使用电子健康记录过程中出现的各种伦理问题及其可能的解决方案。
