Speeding up Healthcare Application with HTTP/2CitiusTech
Healthcare data is being increasingly accessed over the public internet. With the rapid adoption of EHRs and patient portals, more and more healthcare technology providers are looking at providing the same features over the internet in a SaaS model to reduce feature to market time. As they embrace trends and begin supporting new use cases such as wearables, mobile health, AI and chat bots, more data gets transferred over the same public internet infrastructure
Secondly, there is a pressing need to optimize the time healthcare professionals spend on IT per patient instead of patient care. Hence, getting timely and accurate information is of utmost importance to ensure better patient care.
Patient engagement initiatives such as patient education, medication and visit reminder, positively impact patient outcomes and are a huge success if the applications built for the same provide seamless user experience. Internet based applications rely on HTTP. As web application became more prevalent, inefficiencies of HTTP need to be addressed.

Data mining is the field of Computer Science that forms the basis for data analytics. As the term specifies, it is utilized for ‘mining’ or extracting the most significant data from ‘Big Data’ or massive data sets. It not only serves as an extraction tool but also assists manufacturers and researchers in deriving hypotheses or conclusions from the existing Big Data sets, which can be applied toward improving existing services. Even though Data Mining is extensively utilized in commercial domains such as e-commerce or finance, it is indeed also proving to be vital for improving services in the health care domain. When utilized for developing or enhancing medical services, manufacturers should make sure their mining tool is safe and qualified enough to be integrated with medical devices...

This perennial favorite breakout session is back! This is the best opportunity to meet some of the federal government data experts who champion action in improving public access to information to catalyze innovation. Come learn how to use assets from the Department of Health & Human Services (HHS), the Department of Agriculture (USDA), the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and more. Each agency in the federal government is staffed by experts who are well versed in the information resources available from their division on data.gov (administrative data, survey data, research data, medical/scientific content, etc.) The Datalab will also feature opportunities for one-on-one meet-ups with data experts for “deep dives” into agency’s resources. Participants can join live demonstrations and check out new data resources and tools. The goal of the session is to give innovators and entrepreneurs an overview of new, updated, and emerging datasets that can be used to support new applications and services.
Fast Healthcare Interoperability Resources is a draft standard descr.pdfanuradhaartjwellery
Fast Healthcare Interoperability Resources is a draft standard describing data formats and
elements (known as \"resources\") and an Application Programming Interface (API) for
exchanging Electronic health records. The standard was created by the Health Level Seven
International (HL7) health-care standards organization.
FHIR builds on previous data format standards from HL7, like HL7 version 2.x and HL7 version
3.x. But it is easier to implement because it uses a modern web-based suite of API technology,
including a HTTP-based RESTful protocol, HTML and Cascading Style Sheets for user interface
integration, a choice of JSON or XML for data representation, OAuthfor authorization and Atom
for results.One of its goals is to facilitate interoperation between legacy health care systems, to
make it easy to provide health care information to health care providers and individuals on a
wide variety of devices from computers and electronic gadgets and to allow third-party
application developers to provide medical applications which can be easily integrated into
existing systems.
FHIR provides an alternative to document-centric approaches by directly exposing discrete data
elements as services. For example, basic elements of healthcare like patients, admissions,
diagnostic reports and medications can each be retrieved and manipulated via their own resource
URLs. FHIR was supported at an American Medical Informatics Association meeting by
companies like Cerner which value its open and extensible nature.
Application of FHIR -
Implementations
A number of high-profile players in the health care informatics field are showing interest in and
experimenting with FHIR, including CommonWell Health Alliance and SMArt (Substitutable
Medical Applications, reusable technologies). In 2014, the U.S. Health IT Policy and the Health
IT Standards committees endorsed recommendations for more public (open) APIs. The JASON
task force report on \"A Robust Health Data Infrastructure\" says that FHIR is currently the best
candidate API approach, and that such APIs should be part of stage 3 of the \"meaningful use\"
criteria of the U.S. Health Information Technology for Economic and Clinical Health Act.
Open source implementations of FHIR data structures, servers, clients and tools include
reference implementations from HL7 in a variety of languages, SMART on FHIR and HAPI-
FHIR in Java.
In 2016, a variety of applications were demonstrated at the FHIR Applications Roundtable in
July 2016 The Sync for Science profile builds on FHIR to help medical research studies ask for
(and if approved by the patient, receive) patient-level electronic health record data.
Implications for Healthcare Informatics
Because FHIR is implemented on top of HL7 and the HTTPS (HTTP Secure) protocol, messages
can be parsed by wire data analytics platforms for real-time data gathering. In this concept,
healthcare organizations would be able to gather real-time data from specified segments in FHIR
messages a.

Health Education on prevention of hypertensionRadhika kulvi
Hypertension is a chronic condition of concern due to its role in the causation of coronary heart diseases. Hypertension is a worldwide epidemic and important risk factor for coronary artery disease, stroke and renal diseases. Blood pressure is the force exerted by the blood against the walls of the blood vessels and is sufficient to maintain tissue perfusion during activity and rest. Hypertension is sustained elevation of BP. In adults, HTN exists when systolic blood pressure is equal to or greater than 140mmHg or diastolic BP is equal to or greater than 90mmHg. The
