Electronic health records (EHRs) store health-related patient information in an electronic format, improving the quality of health care management and increasing efficiency of health care processes. However, in existing information systems, health-related records are generated, managed, and controlled by health care organizations. Patients are perceived as recipients of care and normally cannot directly interact with the system that stores their health-related records; their participation in enriching this information is not possible. Many businesses now allow customers to participate in generating information for their systems, strengthening customer relationships. This trend is supported by Web 2.0, which enables interactivity through various means, including social networks. Health care systems should be able to take advantage of this development. This article proposes a novel framework in addressing the emerging need for interactivity while preserving and extending existing electronic medical data. The framework has 3 dimensions of patient health record: personal, social, and medical dimensions. The framework is designed to empower patients, changing their roles from static recipient of health care services to dynamic and active partners in health care processes.
电子健康记录（EHRs）以电子格式存储与患者健康相关的信息，提高了医疗保健管理的质量并提升了医疗保健流程的效率。然而，在现有的信息系统中，与健康相关的记录由医疗保健组织生成、管理和控制。患者被视为医疗服务的接受者，通常无法直接与存储其健康相关记录的系统进行交互；他们无法参与丰富这些信息。现在许多企业允许客户参与为其系统生成信息，从而加强客户关系。这种趋势得到了Web 2.0的支持，Web 2.0通过包括社交网络在内的各种方式实现交互性。医疗保健系统应该能够利用这一发展。本文提出了一个新颖的框架，以满足在保留和扩展现有电子医疗数据的同时对交互性的新需求。该框架具有患者健康记录的三个维度：个人维度、社会维度和医疗维度。该框架旨在赋予患者权力，将他们在医疗保健服务中的角色从静态接受者转变为医疗保健过程中的动态和积极参与者。
