A hospital information system is used to support a wide range of operations and activities in the hospital. This study was conducted to determine the factors affecting hospital information system acceptance by users. A cross-sectional, descriptive, analytic study was performed in 2018. The study population included 550 users of the system. The data were collected using a questionnaire and analyzed using the SPSS software. A significant moderate positive correlation was found between hospital information system acceptance and perceived usefulness (r = 0.54, P < 0.01), perceived ease of use (r = 0.41, P < 0.01), human factors (r = 0.46, P < 0.01) and technological factors (r = 0.54, P < 0.01). A significant weak positive correlation was detected between the acceptance of the hospital information system and organizational factors (r = 0.35, P < 0.01). Perceived usefulness of the system, social influence, system quality, perceived ease of use of the system, and top managers' supports had the most substantial influence on the users' intention to accept a hospital information system. User education, preparation of guidelines suited to the user specialty or department, incorporating users' work needs into the capabilities of the hospital information system, and improving the system to an ideal level are important considerations.
医院信息系统用于支持医院内广泛的运营和活动。本研究旨在确定影响用户对医院信息系统接受度的因素。2018年进行了一项横断面、描述性、分析性研究。研究对象包括550名该系统的用户。数据通过问卷调查收集，并使用SPSS软件进行分析。结果发现，医院信息系统接受度与感知有用性（r = 0.54，P < 0.）、感知易用性（r = 0.41，P < 0.01）、人为因素（r = 0.46，P < 0.01）和技术因素（r = 0.54，P < 0.01）之间存在显著的中度正相关。医院信息系统接受度与组织因素之间存在显著的弱正相关（r = 0.35，P < 0.01）。系统的感知有用性、社会影响、系统质量、系统的感知易用性以及高层管理人员的支持对用户接受医院信息系统的意愿影响最大。用户教育、编写适合用户专业或部门的指南、将用户的工作需求纳入医院信息系统的功能以及将系统改进到理想水平都是重要的考虑因素。
