Abstract
|
|
|
Objectives: This paper presents a systematic mapping of studies related to information systems and technology in the field ofhealthcare, enabling a visual mapping of the different lines of knowledge that can provide an overview of the scientific literaturein this field. This map can help to clarify critical aspects of healthcare informatics, such as the main types of informationsystems, the ways in which they integrate with each other, and the technological trends in this field.
Methods: Systematicmapping refers to a process of classifying information in a given area of knowledge. It provides an overview of the state of theart in a particular discipline or area of knowledge, establishing a map that describes how knowledge is structured in that particulararea. In this study, we proposed and carried out a specific implementation of the methodology for mapping. In total,1,619 studies that combine knowledge related to information systems, computer science, and healthcare were selected andcompiled from prestigious publications.
Results: The results established a distribution of the available literature and identifiedpapers related to certain research questions, thereby providing a map of knowledge that structures the different trendsand main areas of research, making it possible to address the research questions and serving as a guide to deepen specific aspectsof the field of study.
Conclusions: We project and propose future research for the trends that stand out because of theirinterest and the possibility of exploring these topics in greater depth.
