由於自動影像系統以及相關技術的發展,傳統需要目視檢測的醫療項目如子宮頸抹片已經成功受惠於自動化子宮頸抹片系統的問世。其它相似需要目視檢測的醫療項目如結核菌抹片檢測是否也能夠同樣受惠於自動化檢測系統呢?
成大前瞻醫療團隊已成功研發出一套結核菌抹片自動化閱片系統(TB Smear Automatic Identification System)的原型,前測的結果似乎取得不錯的成績。但團隊在接下來商品化此一創新科技似乎遇到不少瓶頸,此論文想要藉由企業管理的角度,希望經由透過子宮頸抹片自動化系統的成功經驗,以及實際訪談終端使用者的過程中,試著歸納出影響接受結核菌抹片自動閱片系統的原因。
本研究嘗試遁科技接受模式(Technology Acceptance Model to The Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology)的發展思路,進而從以下幾個構面了解影響結核菌抺片自動化閱片系統接受度的可能原因:1. 工作效果期望(Performance Expectancy)2. 醫病關係轉變 (Doctor-Patient Relationship Transform) 3. 競爭態勢 (Competition Intensity)4. 國家政策(全民健康保險)(Government Policy)。
Because of the development of the automatic imaging system and the relevant technologies, the traditional medical inspections which require visual inspections such as Pap smear identification has benefited from these advancement. Could other identifications such as tuberculosis smear identification, which also requires visual inspection, benefit from the similar technologies like Pap smear has?
Advanced medical innovation team of National Cheng Kong University has successfully made the prototype called TB Smear Automatic Identification System, and the system has obtained pronominal performance at its pre-test stage. However, it seems the team has faced some obstacles along the way to move forward of this innovated automated system. Hoping through the review of the successful experience from Pap smear automatic imaging system and through the case interviews in this study, we will be able to elicit the factors influencing the acceptance of the TB smear automatic identification system.
Inspired by Technology Acceptance Model and the Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology, this study is trying to induce the possibilities and the factors affecting the acceptance of TB smear automatic identification system through the following perspectives: 1. performance expectancy, 2. doctor-patient relationship transform, 3. competition intensity, 4. government policy by the designed interviews with the end potential users.
