Özet
Lately, electronic health record (EHR) systems became very popular in medical technology. The main aim of such systems is to perform a digital version of a patient’s paper chart. EHRs are real-time, patient-centered records that make information available instantly to authorized users. One critical patient record is the DNA sequence, which should be processed and stored in the EHR without any modifications. Therefore, in this paper, we focus on how DNA sequence can be reliably processed to EHR systems. By introducing coding technique on top of the information we implemented the wanted security. We consider and analyze two coding schemes, the Hamming code and Reed-Solomon, on the same data sample. The results are summarized and compared by error detection and error correction values. The final outputs show that Reed-Solomon coding scheme outperforms the Hamming code scheme for reliably and securely processing the DNA record to the EHR.
