Protocols and Evidence based Healthcare: information technology tools to support best practices in health care, information technology tools that inform and empower patients.
This document discusses consumers' participation in clinical handovers between general practitioners (GPs) and hospitals. It notes that currently, formal discharge summaries are only issued to GPs 10-20% of the time and specialists provide formal feedback 10-20% of the time. The document proposes that a personally controlled electronic health record (PCEHR) could help by giving patients more timely access to their clinical information and allowing for easier sharing of information between healthcare providers. This could support chronic disease management and improve healthcare quality through more coordinated team-based care.
The document discusses key strategies for hospital success, including establishing the business case for health information technology, redesigning processes around new technologies, and using technology to extend patient-centered care beyond hospital walls. It also covers best practices like incorporating evidence-based design principles in construction, including stakeholders in the design process, and designing flexibility into buildings. Additional topics include promoting economic viability, the benefits of electronic medical records, achieving patient-centered care, comprehensive care planning, and using social media and marketing.
This document discusses initiatives to improve New Zealand's health IT system and addresses challenges. It proposes national and regional initiatives like a shared patient record, quality information in primary care, and integrated family health centers. Challenges include unhealthy competition, lack of system-wide awareness of costs and accountability, and politically-led versus management-led solutions. Based on experience, the document advocates developing integrated guidelines, standardizing protocols, aligning clinician and organization goals, measuring performance effectively, and developing clinician-led IT solutions and prototypes to understand impact.
Patient-centric care focuses on involving patients in their own care through shared decision making and improved communication. It has been shown to lead to better health outcomes while reducing costs. To achieve patient-centric care, providers must center care around the patient experience, advocate for population health, and find more cost-effective ways of delivering services. New technologies like telehealth, mobile apps, and wearables can also help facilitate more patient-centric approaches.
This document presents a framework for using data and technology to transform health and care outcomes in England by 2020. It identifies challenges facing the current system and proposes 12 actions to enable citizens to make healthy choices, give care professionals access to real-time patient data, make care quality transparent, build public trust in data sharing, support innovation, ensure staff can use technology, and get best value for taxpayers. The National Information Board will oversee implementing the framework through national support, local support, and development principles to help the health and care system meet its challenges.
The document summarizes the care.data program in the NHS which aims to improve patient care through better use of data. It will provide comprehensive and timely healthcare data to patients, professionals, providers and researchers. The program will extract primary care data from GP practices with patient consent to join it with other hospital data. It is being rolled out in phases and aims to eventually include social care and community health data. Strict information governance standards are in place to protect patient privacy and data security. The goal is to help identify variations or gaps in care quality, monitor outcomes over time, and support health services research.
Patient engagement is evolving to include a composite of practices that impact patient behaviors and health. Contemporary models of patient engagement include the HIMSS 5 phases of patient engagement and the Regional Primary Care Coalition's 6 dimensions of patient engagement. Meaningful Use Phase 3 identifies key priorities around patient access to health records and secure messaging. Barriers to patient engagement include defining engagement and integrating diverse engagement tools and technologies.
Providers know that successful care coordination is key to enhancing patient outcomes and better personalizing their experience. At its root, care coordination starts with effective communication, and healthcare organizations are increasingly turning to innovative technology solutions to solve their needs. To improve their care teams’ communication, coordination, and data capture capabilities, two of New York City’s leading healthcare organizations worked with two cutting edge tech solutions providers to design and implement innovative pilots as a part of the New York Digital Health Accelerator program. Utilizing real-life case studies, the panelists will discuss the design and implementation of the pilots, and lessons learned from their participation in the program.

Joan Saddler: Implications for putting patients and the public firstNuffield Trust
The document discusses the implications of NHS reforms for patient and public engagement and outlines three key points:
1) The reforms emphasize patient-led care and involvement of patient experience in quality measures and GP commissioning will require effective public engagement.
2) Mandatory engagement requirements may cause tension with discretionary powers and consortia will be legally required to involve and consult patients.
3) Understanding patient priorities from surveys and improving patient-centered care can boost outcomes, but sustaining change requires long-term cultural shifts more than quick fixes.

It notes that nurses are becoming major contributors of electronically captured data, but that the data is often interpreted and used in ways removed from its original purpose. It outlines six domains where increased data transparency could impact: accountability, choice, productivity, care quality, social innovation and economic growth. However, it stresses the importance of nurses actively participating in and influencing how this data is captured, interpreted and used.
The document describes the development and implementation of a Hospital Information System (HIS) at Christian Medical College (CMC) in Vellore, India. The HIS integrated various hospital departments like labs, medical records, pharmacy, dietary, and inpatient and outpatient areas. It allowed for real-time sharing of patient information between departments. This reduced costs and errors, improved efficiency of healthcare delivery, and enabled better decision-making at CMC.
Patient Centered Medical home talk at WVUPaul Grundy
To employers the cost of healthcare is now a business issue and this talk is about what one large buyer IBM did to drive transformation via broad coalition with other large employers to form the Patient Centered Medical Home movement and the covenant between buyer and provider away from the garbage we now buy episodic uncoordinated disintegrated care. In the change of convenient conversation we have worked with the Primary care providers to give us coordinated, integrated, accessible and compressive care with a set of principles know as the Patient centered medical home.
A Patient Centered Medical Home (PCMH) happens when primary care healers keeping that core healing relationship with their patients step up to become specialists in Family and Community Medicine. The move is to the discipline of leading a team that delivers population health management, patent centered prevention, care that is coordination, comprehensive accessible 24/7 and integrated across a deliver system. PCMH happens when the specialists in Family and Community Medicine wake up every morning and ask the question how will my team improve the health of my community today?
All over the world three huge factors are in play that is driving the concept of Patient Centered Medical Home. They are:
1) Cost and demography
2) Information technology and data (information that is actionable will equal a demand for accountability by the payer or buyer of the care)
3) Consumer demand to engage healthcare differently (at least as well as they can their bank- on line) have a question about lab results why not e-mail?
But at its core it is a move toward integration of a healing relationship in primary care and population management all at the point of care with the tools to do just that.

Suitable housing is essential for personal well-being and quality of life at all stages of life. It enables access to services, social relationships, and independence. Housing associations play an important role in supporting health by providing suitable accommodation and programs that prevent falls, reduce isolation, and encourage healthy behaviors, especially for older residents and those with disabilities or long-term conditions. Through adaptations, supportive housing, and care services, they can help people maintain independence and avoid expensive acute health services.
District councils’ contribution to public healthThe King's Fund
Our health is primarily determined by factors beyond just
health care. These slides illustrate the ways in which district
councils influence the health of local people through their key
functions and in their wider role supporting communities and
influencing other bodies.
The King’s Fund Events organise more than 20 health and social care events each year. Our highly-regarded conferences attract leading speakers from the government, the NHS, local authorities and the independent and voluntary sectors.
Jos de Blok set up Buurtzorg – which means ‘neighbourhood care’ in Dutch – with a team of four nurses. Today there are nearly 8,000 Buurtzorg nurses in 630 independent teams, caring for 60,000 patients a year. Nurses in Sweden, Norway, Japan and the United States are adopting the Buurtzorg model.
While women currently make up 44% of registered doctors in the UK, they are underrepresented in medical leadership roles, with only 24% of trust medical directors being women. Although 55% of medical students are now women, indicating they will likely become the majority of the medical workforce in the next decade, women currently account for just 32% of consultants compared to 54% of trainee doctors. Research has identified barriers for women progressing into leadership, such as work-life balance, organizational cultures, and personal expectations.
Our infographics highlight some key facts and figures around leadership vacancies in the NHS and some of the difficulties NHS organisations face in recruiting and retaining people for executive positions.
Sharing leadership with patients and users: a roundtable discussionThe King's Fund
‘What more is possible when patients, service users and those delivering services share the leadership task in health and social care?’
We held a roundtable discussion with patient leaders and organisational leads to discuss this question. Our slidepack summaries the conversations, including the opportunities and challenges for patient leaders, and where and how to start shared leadership working.
Making the case for public health interventionsThe King's Fund
In partnership with the Local Government Association, we have produced a set of infographics that describe key facts about the public health system and the return on investment for some public health interventions.
We hope they will be a useful resource for you – please feel free to use them in your office, in documents or presentations.

The document summarizes the findings and recommendations of the Commission on the Future of Health and Social Care in England. It identifies three key problems with the current system: it is unfair, funding is separate between health and social care, and services are not well coordinated. The Commission recommends a new system that 1) commissions health and social care together, 2) simplifies access and increases personal control, and 3) increases free social care provision over time. However, these changes would require more funding. The Commission believes the costs can be covered through tax increases focused on those who can afford to pay more, and that the reformed system would be more efficient and achieve better outcomes.
Local Advanced Lung Cancer: Artificial Intelligence, Synergetics, Complex Sys...Oleg Kshivets
Overall life span (LS) was 1671.7±1721.6 days and cumulative 5YS reached 62.4%, 10 years – 50.4%, 20 years – 44.6%. 94 LCP lived more than 5 years without cancer (LS=2958.6±1723.6 days), 22 – more than 10 years (LS=5571±1841.8 days). 67 LCP died because of LC (LS=471.9±344 days). AT significantly improved 5YS (68% vs. 53.7%) (P=0.028 by log-rank test). Cox modeling displayed that 5YS of LCP significantly depended on: N0-N12, T3-4, blood cell circuit, cell ratio factors (ratio between cancer cells-CC and blood cells subpopulations), LC cell dynamics, recalcification time, heparin tolerance, prothrombin index, protein, AT, procedure type (P=0.000-0.031). Neural networks, genetic algorithm selection and bootstrap simulation revealed relationships between 5YS and N0-12 (rank=1), thrombocytes/CC (rank=2), segmented neutrophils/CC (3), eosinophils/CC (4), erythrocytes/CC (5), healthy cells/CC (6), lymphocytes/CC (7), stick neutrophils/CC (8), leucocytes/CC (9), monocytes/CC (10). Correct prediction of 5YS was 100% by neural networks computing (error=0.000; area under ROC curve=1.0).

8 Surprising Reasons To Meditate 40 Minutes A Day That Can Change Your Life.pptxHolistified Wellness
We’re talking about Vedic Meditation, a form of meditation that has been around for at least 5,000 years. Back then, the people who lived in the Indus Valley, now known as India and Pakistan, practised meditation as a fundamental part of daily life. This knowledge that has given us yoga and Ayurveda, was known as Veda, hence the name Vedic. And though there are some written records, the practice has been passed down verbally from generation to generation.
