Compared to other commercial buildings, hospital buildings are one of the most complex buildings/projects to plan, design, build, and operate. A well-planned set of all the activities involved in construction and setting up the hospital contributes a lot to reducing errors, avoiding modifications, completing a project on time, reducing the modification costs, decreasing or controlling infection rate, protecting patients and staff from injury, increase patient's recovery rate, and increase staff satisfaction.

It is a fact that each hospital project department involves many individual...

This book comprehensively and systematically introduces the latest research progress, challenges, and future directions of various healthcare information systems. Starting from the formation, development, and typical research achievements of medical informatics, the book provides a detailed overview of the more mature healthcare information systems, including electronic medical record systems, laboratory information systems, picture archiving and communication systems, clinical decision support systems, Internet of medical things systems, telemedicine systems and mobile health systems,...

This book addresses the phenomenon of biological autoluminescence (also known as ultraweak photon emission, UPE, biochemiluminescence, or biophotons) and deals with a very broad spectrum of subjects, ranging from basic observational studies to molecular mechanisms, free-radical processes, physics of electron excitation and photon emission, as well as detection techniques. The chapter topics include UPE in plants, animals, and the human body; microorganisms and subcellular structures; and model systems, illustrating its high prevalence. Several sections of the book provide some backstory,...
