Ira J. Kalet PhD, "Principles of Biomedical Informatics, Second Edition"
2013 | ISBN-10: 0124160190 | 708 pages

This second edition of a pioneering technical work in biomedical informatics provides a very readable treatment of the deep computational ideas at the foundation of the field. Principles of Biomedical Informatics, 2nd Edition is radically reorganized to make it especially useable as a textbook for courses that move beyond the standard introductory material. It includes exercises at the end of each chapter, ideas for student projects, and a number of new topics, such as: . tree structured data, interval trees, and time-oriented medical data and their use . On Line Application Processing (OLAP), an old database idea that is only recently coming of age and finding surprising importance in biomedical informatics . a discussion of nursing knowledge and an example of encoding nursing advice in a rule-based system . X-ray physics and algorithms for cross-sectional medical image reconstruction, recognizing that this area was one of the most central to the origin of biomedical computing . an introduction to Markov processes, and . an outline of the elements of a hospital IT security program, focusing on fundamental ideas rather than specifics of system vulnerabilities or specific technologies.

It is simultaneously a unified description of the core research concept areas of biomedical data and knowledge representation, biomedical information access, biomedical decision-making, and information and technology use in biomedical contexts, and a pre-eminent teaching reference for the growing number of healthcare and computing professionals embracing computation in health-related fields.

As in the first edition, it includes many worked example programs in Common LISP, the most powerful and accessible modern language for advanced biomedical concept representation and manipulation.

The text also includes humor, history, and anecdotal material to balance the mathematically and computationally intensive development in many of the topic areas. The emphasis, as in the first edition, is on ideas and methods that are likely to be of lasting value, not just the popular topics of the day. Ira Kalet is Professor Emeritus of Radiation Oncology, and of Biomedical Informatics and Medical Education, at the University of Washington. Until retiring in 2011 he was also an Adjunct Professor in Computer Science and Engineering, and Biological Structure. From 2005 to 2010 he served as IT Security Director for the University of Washington School of Medicine and its major teaching hospitals. He has been a member of the American Medical Informatics Association since 1990, and an elected Fellow of the American College of Medical Informatics since 2011. His research interests include simulation systems for design of radiation treatment for cancer, software development methodology, and artificial intelligence applications to medicine, particularly expert systems, ontologies and modeling.

Robert Riener, ‎Matthias Harders - Virtual Reality in Medicine
 Published: 2012-04-20 | ISBN: 1447140109 |

Virtual Reality has the potential to provide descriptive and practical information for medical training and therapy while relieving the patient or the physician. Multimodal interactions between the user and the virtual environment facilitate the generation of high-fidelity sensory impressions, by using not only visual and auditory, but also kinesthetic, tactile, and even olfactory feedback modalities. On the basis of the existing physiological constraints, Virtual Reality in Medicine derives the technical requirements and design principles of multimodal input devices, displays, and rendering techniques.
Resulting from a course taught by the authors, Virtual Reality in Medicine presents examples for surgical training, intra-operative augmentation, and rehabilitation that are already in use as well as those currently in development. It is well suited as introductory material for engineering and computer science students, as well as researchers who want to learn more about basic technologies in the area of virtual reality applied to medicine. It also provides a broad overview to non-engineering students as well as clinical users, who desire to learn more about the current state of the art and future applications of this technology.

V. Koutkias, J. Nies, S. Jensen, N. Maglaveras, R. Beuscart - Patient Safety Informatics: Adverse Drug Events, Human Factors and IT Tools for Patient Medication Safety
 Published: 2011-05-15 | ISBN: 1607507390 |

Improving patient safety and the quality of healthcare poses many challenges, and information technology (IT) can support the measures necessary to address these. Unfortunately, the risk of adverse drug events (ADEs) rises alongside the increasing sophistication of the health IT systems incorporated into hospital environments. These pose a risk to the safety of patients and incur considerable extra healthcare costs. Approaches introduced to eliminate ADEs raise a number of concerns, not least that the successful transferability and use of such tools into real clinical settings is only possible by means of a holistic, validated and qualitative approach. This book is a collection of papers presented at the second workshop organized in the context of the EU-funded Patient Safety through Intelligent Procedures in medication (PSIP) project and held in 2011 in Paris. The workshop provides an opportunity for experts active in the field to share ideas and experiences arising from many different perspectives. The 29 papers address current, novel methods and applications which have achieved concrete results and are relevant to the domain of patient safety as a whole, and are grouped into four main sections: designing IT systems for patient safety; methods and technologies for developing patient safety systems; novel applications to validate patient safety informatics and impact assessment studies for patient safety informatics outcomes. Significant progress has been made in the field, but even greater challenges must still be faced if a successful transfer of research ideas and outcomes into clinical practice is to be accomplished. A new focus in healthcare IT is called for; one which specifically addresses the issue of patient safety.

Valerie Powell, ‎Franklin M. Din, ‎Amit Acharya, Miguel Humberto Torres-Urquidy - Integration of Medical and Dental Care and Patient Data
 Published: 2012-01-19 | ISBN: 1447121848 | 288 pages

This book informs readers of the needs and rationale for the integration of medical and dental care and information with an international perspective as to how and where medical and dental care separated into specific domains. It provide high level guidance on issues involved with care and data integration and how to achieve an integrated model of health care supported by integrated HIT. A patient typically expects that a visit to a dentist can usually be resolved immediately. This expectation places a premium on instant, accurate, thorough, and current information. The state-of-the-art of fully integrated (dental-medical) electronic health record (EHR) is covered and this is contrasted with the current state of dental-medical software. While dentists in the US Veterans Health Administration (VHA), the US Indian Health Service (IHS), or the US military, for example, have access to fully integrated health records, most US clinicians still gather information from separate sources via fax or phone calls. The authors provide an in-depth discussion of the role of informatics and information science in the articulation of medical and dental practices and clinical data with the focus on applied clinical informatics to improve quality of care, practice efficiency, coordination and continuity of care, communication between physicians and dentists and to provide a more comprehensive care for the patients. Lastly, the book examines advances in medical and dental research and how these may affect dentistry in the future. Most new advances in healthcare research are information-intensive.

Cristoph U. Lehmann, George R. Kim, Kevin B. Johnson, "Pediatric Informatics: Computer Applications in Child Health"
2009 | pages: 472 | ISBN: 0387764453

Now is a critical time in pediatric informatics. As information technologies - electronic health records (EHRs), personal health records (PHRs), computerized physician order entry (CPOE) - and standards (HL7) are developed to improve the quality of health care, it is imperative for policy makers and pediatricians to be aware of their impact on pediatric care and child health. Informed child advocates must be at the planning table as national and regional health information networks are developed to insure the unique health care needs of children are being met. "Pediatric Informatics: Computer Applications in Child Health" is a current digest of the important trends in pediatric informatics, written by leading experts in the field. This book explores how the management of biomedical data, information, and knowledge can optimize and advance child health. The contributors investigate whether the specific importance of pediatric informatics is derived from the biological, psychological, social and cultural needs that distinguish children from other populations. These distinctions create complexities in the management of pediatric data and information that make children a vulnerable population and require the development of a new body of knowledge in pediatric informatics.

Making the Case for Information. The evidence for investing in high quality health information for patients and the public
http://www.pifonline.org.uk/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/PiF-full-report-FINAL-new.pdf


„What is the evidence for investing in high quality health information for patients and the public? The provision of health information to patients and the public is now firmly embedded in health policy across the UK...Yet information for patients, in most places, remains a ‘nice to’ instead of a ‘must have’...Investment in the development and delivery of health information is often uncoordinated and in many cases absent.
Health information for patients and the public needs investment and a coordinated and systematic approach to delivery...

This Case for Information does just that. It identifies and sets out the evidence about the benefits of providing,and the harms of not providing, high quality health information for patients and the public...“
The Patient Information Forum (PiF) is the organisation for people working in consumer health information. PiF campaigns to ensure that consumer health information is central to high quality, patient-centred care and helps providers develop high quality information for their patients and the public.

"Healthcare Knowledge Management: Issues, Advances and Successes"
English | 2006 | ISBN: 0387335404 | 282 pages

Healthcare practitioners and managers increasingly find themselves in clinical situations where they have to think fast and process myriad diagnostic test results, medications and past treatment responses in order to make decisions.

Effective problem solving in the clinical environment or classroom simulated lab depends on a healthcare professional's immediate access to fresh information. Unable to consult a library for information, the healthcare practitioner must learn to effectively manage knowledge while thinking on their toes.

Knowledge Management (KM) holds the key to this dilemma in the healthcare environment. KM places value on the tacit knowledge that individuals hold within an institution and often makes use of IT to free up the collective wisdom of individuals within an organization. Healthcare Knowledge Management: Issues, Advances and Successes will explore the nature of KM within contemporary healthcare institutions and associated organizations. It will provide readers with an understanding of approaches to the critical nature and use of knowledge by investigating healthcare-based KM systems. Designed to demystify the KM process and demonstrate its applicability in healthcare, this text offers contemporary and clinically-relevant lessons for future organizational implementations.

The editors of this book have assembled a group of international contributors that reflects the diversity of KM applications in the healthcare sector. While many KM texts suffer from pitching theoretical issues at too technical a level, Healthcare Knowledge Management approaches the topic from the more versatile "twin" perspectives of both academia and commerce. This unique text is integrative in nature – a practical guide to managing and developing KM that is underpinned by theory and research.

"PACS and Digital Medicine: Essential Principles and Modern Practice"
English | 2010 | ISBN: 1420083651 | 367 pages

To improve efficiency and reduce administrative costs, healthcare providers, insurance companies, and governments are increasingly using integrated electronic health record (EHR) and picture archiving and communication systems (PACS) to manage patients’ medical information. Reflecting the latest applications of PACS technology, PACS and Digital Medicine: Essential Principles and Modern Practice discusses the essential principles of PACS, EHR, and related technological advancements as well as practical issues concerning the implementation, operation, and maintenance of PACS and EHR systems.

The book focuses on various components of PACS that use state-of-the-art technologies. The authors first present topics to consider prior to implementation, including design principles for PACS components and theory. They also cover post-installation quality control; security and privacy policies; maintenance, including upgrade/integration with other information systems; and governing standards. Each chapter includes an introduction to basic concepts and principles relevant to the topics, before exploring challenges that PACS users may encounter in daily work. Discussions are supplemented with more than 130 illustrations, along with case studies of implementation in two organizations.

A useful guide and broad overview of the field, this book presents key principles and practical steps for PACS and EHR implementations and maintenance. Although the technology and standards of healthcare IT will evolve over time, the theory and practical advice found in this text will remain pertinent in the future.

English | 1 edition | March 24, 2009 | ISBN-10: 0309126428 | 126 pages

There is great enthusiasm over the use of emerging interactive health information technologies-often referred to as eHealth-and the potential these technologies have to improve the quality, capacity, and efficiency of the health care system. However, many doctors, advocacy groups, policy makers and consumers are concerned that electronic health systems might help individuals and communities with greater resources while leaving behind those with limited access to technology.

In order to address this problem, the Institute of Medicine's Roundtable on Health Literacy held a workshop to explore the current status of communication technology, the challenges for its use in populations with low health literacy, and the strategies for increasing the benefit of these technologies for populations with low health literacy. The summary of the workshop, "Health Literacy, eHealth, and Communication: Putting the Consumer First," includes participants' comments on these issues.

A Systematic Review of Healthcare Applications for Smartphones.
Mosa AS, Yoo I, Sheets L.

BACKGROUND: Advanced mobile communications and portable computation are now combined in handheld devices called "smartphones", which are also capable of running third-party software. The number of smartphone users is growing rapidly, including among healthcare professionals. The purpose of this study was to classify smartphone-based healthcare technologies as discussed in academic literature according to their functionalities, and summarize articles in each category.

METHODS: In April 2011, MEDLINE was searched to identify articles that discussed the design, development, evaluation, or use of smartphone-based software for healthcare professionals, medical or nursing students, or patients. A total of 55 articles discussing 83 applications were sel ected for this study from 2,894 articles initially obtained fr om the MEDLINE searches.

RESULTS: A total of 83 applications were documented: 57 applications for healthcare professionals focusing on disease diagnosis (21), drug reference (6), medical calculators (, literature search (6), clinical communication (3), Hospital Information System (HIS) client applications (4), medical training (2) and general healthcare applications (7); 11 applications for medical or nursing students focusing on medical education; and 15 applications for patients focusing on disease management with chronic illness (6), ENT-related (4), fall-related (3), and two other conditions (2). The disease diagnosis, drug reference, and medical calculator applications were reported as most useful by healthcare professionals and medical or nursing students.

CONCLUSIONS: Many medical applications for smartphones have been developed and widely used by health professionals and patients. The use of smartphones is getting more attention in healthcare day by day. Medical applications make smartphones useful tools in the practice of evidence-based medicine at the point of care, in addition to their use in mobile clinical communication. Also, smartphones can play a very important role in patient education, disease self-management, and remote monitoring of patients.

http://www.healthcareitnews.com/news/5-critical-technologies-health-systems-should-require
The need for tools that help provide coordinated care is growing. And according to Sai Subramaniam, business head for Life Sciences & Healthcare at Persistent Systems, health IT professionals need to start thinking beyond traditional models of building and running applications, which tend to be "complex and expensive."
"Taking a platform as a service approach (PaaS)… healthcare IT professionals can now focus on building integrated care management applications and providing real value to physicians and patients," he said.
"The benefits for healthcare organizations, patients, and professionals include the ability to deliver custom risk and analytics tools faster, [the ability to] implement evidence-based rules and guidelines quicker, and having the capacity to help caregivers collaborate and intervene in real-time."
Subramaniam outlines five critical and enabling technologies health systems should require.
1. Predictive analytics and modeling tools. According to Subramaniam, these tools are used to "stratify" the population, identify at-risk patients, provide better provision screening tests, identify gaps in care, and facilitate better pre-care planning. "Such pre-care HIT tools will provide actionable information that a physician can use at [the] point of care," he said. "This can be bolstered by big data, such as text analytics and d Subramaniam. "Since the number and kinds of clinical quality measures will evolve, the tools have to be flexible."
2.  Business intelligence  tools. These tools are needed at the point of care, so physicians can quickly interpret data, define "health interventions," and support actions such as specialist referrals and disease management. "It's critical that the reports and dashboards are intuitive and interactive -- like graphs, heat maps, etc. -- for seamless clinical decision support," said Subramaniam. "Since the number and kinds of clinical quality measures will evolve, the tools have to be flexible."
3. Portal and CRM tools. These tools are used to manage patient's pre-care and post-care needs. "Tools such as health risk assessment and visit coordination are important for pre-care, whereas adherence and online tele-visits are important for post-care," said Subramaniam. CRM tools, he continued, allow care coordinators to track patients and intervene proactively, all while using integrated "contact center" technologies. "Portals can provide detailed educational information for patients to access and learn at their convenience," he said.
4. Mobility apps tools. Physicians look to these tools mainly for post-care procedures or outreach and education. "Patients need to be able to access and report critical information on the go to help them adhere to interventions defined at the point of care," said Subramaniam. "This includes accessing guidelines prescribed by physicians, as well as having the capability to report health information, such as sugar levels and blood pressure, back to the physician." Portals need to be accessible fr om smartphones, while providing access to tools like health information libraries and health calculators, Subramaniam added.
5. Collaboration and social tools. These allow health systems to collaborate, engage, and make long-term behavioral changes in the population. "Care coordinators should have access to online chat platforms that allow online interactions with fellow caregivers and facilitate better case management," said Subramaniam. Patients need to be on a community social platform, he continues, "wh ere games and activities will promote health behaviors like exercise, losing weight, smoking cessation, and alcohol abstinence."
