    Mathematical Model for Information Technology Infusion for Healthcare Sector in Nigeria
    (IGI Global, 2017-10) idowu, PETER ADEBAYO; BALOGUN, JEREMIAH ADEMOLA; egejuru, ngozi chidozie
    In this article, an IT infusion model was developed for the Nigerian health sector using teaching hospitals in Nigeria. The different IT technologies used by medical practitioners were identified. Structured questionnaires were used to elicit knowledge from respondents selected from teaching hospitals located in Nigeria. The results showed that the nurses and doctors with less than 5 years working experience were common users of IT. The results for the IT infusion showed that the earliest IT component in the health sector was the personal computer since the year 1994 followed by mobile phone and search engines by the year 1996 with the projector infused by the year 2001. The infusion model for the total number of users for each IT component was formulated using polynomial functions of degree, n with respect to t – the number of years after the base year of infusion of IT device. The IT infusion model developed in this paper can be used to forecast the future growth of IT within the healthcare sectors

    An Online Neonatal Intensive-Care Unit Monitoring System for Hospitals in Nigeria
    (IGI Global, 2017-01) IDOWU, PETER ADEBAYO; ASAHIAH, FRANKLIN OLADIPO; BALOGUN, JEREMIAH ADEMOLA
    This paper presents an online monitoring system for the storage and retrieval of physiological data from neonates admitted in to the Neonatal intensive care units(NICU)of Obafemi Awolowo University Teaching Hospital,Ile-Ife,Nigeria.Inordertodevelopthissystem,the requirements of the proposed system were identified and analyzed as system and user requirements independently and the requirements were designed using the Unified Modeling Language (UML) tools.The system was implemented using Web2.0 technologies such as,the hyper text markup language (HTML),the cascading styling sheets (CSS),PHP and My SQL.With the system,storage and retrieval of information by the nurses and any authorized users will be easy
