1E. COGNITIVE BARRIERS TO OPTIMAL DATA QUALITY AND USE Web Cast

(Expert Level)

Vimla L. Patel, PhD, DSc

Professor
Department of Biomedical Informatics
Arizona State University

The quality of data collected, plus its storage, retrieval, representation and interpretation, all affect the way that information is used for making decisions. Problems at one of these steps can lead to suboptimal decisions, resulting in clinical errors.This presentation will discuss some of these barriers within the context of electronic medical record and computer-based provider order-entry systems.

Biomedical Communications
National Library of Medicine

Personal Health Records (PHRs) are proposed as solutions to many of the problems concerning record keeping and unification of data.This refers to a patient from multiple sites, and has attracted much attention in the lay press and industry.The National Library of Medicine (NLM) is developing an open source PHR that takes advantage of NLM’s rich knowledge and vocabulary resources. In addition to managing these records, the first version of the system will provide links to NLM’s knowledge resource and reminders about needed preventive care.

6B. LIES AND LISTS – LESSONS OF ELECTRONIC HEALTH RECORDS IN MEDICINEWeb Cast

(Intermediate Level)

Scott Wallace

President & CEO
The National Alliance for Health Information Technology

Five years into the national effort to establish a national health information system, it is clear that some of the things health practitioners have been told about electronic health records simply aren’t true, and that there are some unambiguous lessons about what clinicians should do to ensure electronic health records enable better care for patients. This session will explore the lessons and provide some insights for anticipating the next five years in electronic medicine.

Concurrent Session

7A. PRIVACY AND SECURITY FROM A NATIONAL PERSPECTIVEWeb Cast

(Intermediate Level)

Project HealthDesign supported nine teams to envision and prototype the next generation of personal health records and explore ethical and social issues related to them. From cell phones that facilitate on-the-spot metabolic coaching for patients with diabetes to an integrated calendaring system that enables women undergoing treatment for cancer to integrate therapies with important personal events, these teams pushed the boundaries of personal health records. This presentation will bring together the experiences of several team leaders.

BUILDING CONNECTIONS FOR PATIENT-CENTERED RECORDS: BRIDGING THE LAST 10 FEET!
Patricia Flatley Brennan, PhD, RN, FAAN, FACMI

Moehlman Bascom Professor
School of Nursing and College of Engineering

National Program Director
Project HealthDesign

Nurses have important insights and key opportunities to insure that innovative, automated computerized record systems — whether they are institutional charts or person-generated recordings — be fully accessible and interoperable across the full spectrum of health environments. Only through creative strategies built on nursing insights will we be able to help patients translate personal health record information into action for health. This presentation will explore some of those strategies and look ahead to future developments.
