| Abstract (ENG): |
Blockchain technologies (BT) offer transformative potential for
healthcare data management, particularly in enhancing electronic health record
(EHR) systems by addressing data security and ethical challenges. This study
explores the barriers to integrating blockchain within EHRs. Through a review of
eight key studies, we identified several critical challenges, categorized into ten
primary areas, that hinder the incorporation of BT into EHR architecture. Findings
from this scoping review highlight the complexity of embedding BT within EHR
frameworks. Addressing these barriers will require coordinated efforts among
healthcare professionals and policymakers. Further research is needed to develop
practical solutions that maximize the benefits of blockchain while mitigating its
limitations within EHR systems. |
