Read the following case descriptions and discuss the integration problems using the types of integration presented in Sect. 5.3.4. Which negative effects for information logistics result from the identified integration problems?

1. A physician enters a medical diagnosis for a patient first in the medical documentation and management system (MDMS) and later, when ordering an X-ray, again in the CPOE system.

2. The position of the patient’s name and the formatting of the patient’s birthdate vary between the MDMS and the CPOE system.

3. When physicians shift from the MDMS to the CPOE system, they have to log in again and again search for the correct patient.

4. The CPOE system and the RIS use slightly different catalogs of available radiology examinations.

5. When physicians write the discharge letter for a patient in the MDMS, they also have to code the discharge diagnosis of a patient. For this coding, they have to use a feature that is only available in the patient administration system, so they have to shift to this application system.

6. While at the patient’s bedside during their ward rounds, physicians have to use several application components at the same time, such as MDMS for retrieving recent findings, the CPOE system for ordering, and the PACS for retrieving images.
