Dr John Ovretveit's critique on Dr Yen-Fu Chen's presentation on publication bias in service delivery research for the CLAHRC WM Scientific Advisory Group, 10th June 2015, Birmingham, UK
The document is a wedding invitation for Bhavish Sharma and Deepthi Sharma. It invites guests to attend pre-wedding celebrations including a Sangeet musical celebration on an unspecified date where guests can dance and enjoy music. It also invites guests to attend the wedding ceremony on April 6, 2015 at City Pride Garden in Ajmer, India to celebrate the new beginnings and love between Bhavish and Deepthi.
Presentation given by Dr Sam Watson and Dr Yen-Fu Chen at the latest CLAHRC WM Programme Steering Committee meeting on 15th April 2015, at the University of Warwick.
The document discusses methodological challenges in assessing the effectiveness of interventions for coordinated care of chronic diseases. It summarizes preliminary findings from 81 reviews on interventions' impact on hospitalization rates. Key challenges include double counting of primary studies across reviews and determining appropriate ways to group heterogeneous interventions for analysis given interventions often have overlapping elements. Excluding reviews based solely on quality scores may overlook potentially useful outcomes data, requiring consideration of alternative strategies.

Over the past few years the APM Governance SIG (specific interest group) has run a series of events showcasing real examples of governance and sharing good practice.
We were delighted, on 10th June 2015, to welcome Helen Gamlin, Head of the Programme Management Office from Heathrow to present and share insights.
GovSIG welcomed members and guests to hear from LHR Airports (Heathrow) on lessons learned and the development of their governance of programmes.
Some delegates present may well have heard Chris Elliot present in May 2012 as Heathrow introduced a new governance model – it was certainly intriguing to see how things have moved on since then!
Heathrow is the busiest airport in the United Kingdom, the busiest airport in Europe by passenger traffic and the third busiest airport in the world by total passenger traffic. In 2014, it handled a record 73.4 million passengers and 470,695 transport movements.
Helen outlined the key developments that Heathrow has taken over the last few years to improve their flexibility to the governance of projects and project management and increase business accountability for realisation of programme benefits.
As at previous events, colleagues will had ample opportunity to discuss the analysis and trends with each other (and with Helen). All present were encouraged to offer their views on the extent to which these correlate to their own experiences.
The event also provided opportunities for attendees to:
Ask questions about the governance landscape at Heathrow
Feed thoughts, observations or challenges back to the Helen

Similar to Observations and Reflections of my visit to Rolls-Royce in Derby - Nathalie Maillard (20)
This document describes a comparative analysis project that evaluated whether a rapid qualitative analysis approach could deliver findings more quickly than a traditional in-depth analysis method. The rapid analysis used summary templates to analyze data within a short timeframe, while the in-depth analysis used coding and the Framework method. The results found that rapid analysis was much faster for data management but took longer for interpretation. Both methods produced similar key issues and recommendations, but the in-depth analysis provided more specific, context-informed findings. The document reflects on the applications and limitations of rapid qualitative analysis approaches.
This document discusses moving from current ad-hoc healthcare systems to a national learning health system. It outlines challenges facing healthcare like rising costs and an aging population. Current digital health data is underused. Examples show how data can enable epidemiological research, evaluate policies, and support clinical trials. Bigger efforts are needed to create a prototype national asthma learning health system. This would use various data sources to monitor asthma burden, improve outcomes and reduce deaths. The goal is an integrated system that continuously learns from patient care to drive discovery and improve value.

Digital India will need a big trained army of Health Informatics educated & trained manpower in India.
Presently, generalist IT manpower does most of the work in the healthcare industry in India. Academic Health Informatics education is not readily available at school & health university level or IT education institutions in India.
We look into the evolution of health informatics and its applications in the healthcare industry.
HIMMS TIGER resources are available to assist Health Informatics education.
Indian Health universities, IT Education institutions, and the healthcare industry must proactively collaborate to start health informatics courses on a big scale. An advocacy push from various stakeholders is also needed for this goal.
Health informatics has huge employment potential and provides a big business opportunity for the healthcare industry. A big pool of trained health informatics manpower can lead to product & service innovations on a global scale in India.

Microstomia, characterized by an abnormally small oral aperture, presents significant challenges in prosthodontic treatment, including limited access for examination, difficulties in impression making, and challenges with prosthesis insertion and removal. To manage these issues, customized impression techniques using sectional trays and elastomeric materials are employed. Prostheses may be designed in segments or with flexible materials to facilitate handling. Minimally invasive procedures and the use of digital technologies can enhance patient comfort. Education and training for patients on prosthesis care and maintenance are crucial for compliance. Regular follow-up and a multidisciplinary approach, involving collaboration with other specialists, ensure comprehensive care and improved quality of life for microstomia patients.

End-tidal carbon dioxide (ETCO2) is the level of carbon dioxide that is released at the end of an exhaled breath. ETCO2 levels reflect the adequacy with which carbon dioxide (CO2) is carried in the blood back to the lungs and exhaled.
Non-invasive methods for ETCO2 measurement include capnometry and capnography. Capnometry provides a numerical value for ETCO2. In contrast, capnography delivers a more comprehensive measurement that is displayed in both graphical (waveform) and numerical form.
Sidestream devices can monitor both intubated and non-intubated patients, while mainstream devices are most often limited to intubated patients.
