Introduction to the 2012 Indivo X Users' Conference, including a history of Indivo and Personal Health Records, a discussion of the reasons for Google Health's demise, and how Indivo's open architecture might provide a solution.
By Kenneth Mandl, MD MPH, Faculty, Boston Children's Hospital Informatics Program.
Healthcare institutions are aggressively moving towards meeting compliance with MU1 and MU2 with the implementation of full-featured Electronic Health Records. Concomitantly, there will be a massive increase in the amount of clinical data captured electronically. Business intelligence (BI) which traditionally has focused on financial data can be leveraged to use clinical data to support providers in delivering high quality, efficient care. In addition, BI coupled with population health analytics can help meet many Accountable Care Organization needs. This presentation will discuss the Denver Health journey in using BI in a variety of was to facilitate the attainment of high quality care.
Design Considerations to Maximize Medical Device Cloud ConnectivityGreenlight Guru
Medical device manufacturers are faced with a myriad of design decisions during product development. Several key decisions affecting market readiness must be addressed between bench-top prototypes and initiation of clinical trials. Among the most important are cloud connectivity considerations surrounding firmware, hardware, and use cases. The earlier cloud connectivity factors are identified, considered, and integrated into the design process, the more successful the resulting commercial roll-out in terms of cost, certification, and market acceptance.
• Key design factors medical device manufacturers should consider
• Advantages of considering connectivity early in the design process
• Practical use-case examples highlight more cost-effective clinical trials, wider market acceptance, and reduction in operational costs
This session took place live at the Greenlight Guru True Quality Virtual Summit, a three-day event for medical device professionals to learn to get their devices to market faster, stay ahead of regulatory changes, and use quality as their multiplier to grow their device business.
Reforming Medical Device approval processes especially in software requires careful consideration of shifting risks to patients without adequate protections.

Innovation in Enterprise Imaging: Clinical Context is What's NextTodd Winey
Clinicians have one word for what they want from your next generation enterprise imaging solutions. Context. A recent study in the Journal of Digital Imaging suggests that nearly 60% of radiology orders have no mention of important chronic conditions, calling it “an alarming lack of communication” that “may negatively impact interpretation quality.” Imaging orders such as “chest pain” or “lower abdominal pain,” for example, are essentially context free, giving clinicians little information to work with. Access to a complete clinical history behind those orders can help clinicians provide richer input for more accurate diagnoses and more effective care plans, along with results of the imaging study.

This review by the National Data Guardian for Health and Care (NDG), Dame Fiona Caldicott, makes recommendations to the Secretary of State for Health. These are aimed at strengthening the safeguards for keeping health and care information secure and ensuring the public can make informed choices about how their data is used.
The NDG proposes new data security standards for the NHS and social care, a method for testing compliance against the standards, and a new opt-out to make clear how people’s health and care information will be used and in what circumstances they can opt out.
Dame Fiona’s report argues that the public should be engaged about how their information is used and safeguarded, and the benefits of data sharing, with a wide-ranging consultation on her proposals as a first step.
A letter from Dame Fiona Caldicott and David Behan, Care Quality Commission Chief Executive, to the Health Secretary outlines the common themes between the NDG review and a review of data security in the NHS carried out by the CQC.
The Global Social Impact Investment Steering Group (GSG) was established in August 2015 as the successor to the Social Impact Investment Taskforce, established by G8. The GSG is continuing the work of the Taskforce in catalysing a global social impact investment market across a wider membership. Its members include 13 countries plus the EU, as well as active observers from government and from leading network organisations supportive of impact investment.
Across the world, attitudes are changing. Old certainties about tightly defined roles for government, civil society and business are dissolving. Social sector organisations are becoming more business-like, and business is looking ever more to delivering sustainable value.

Securing your Kubernetes cluster_ a step-by-step guide to success !KatiaHIMEUR1
Today, after several years of existence, an extremely active community and an ultra-dynamic ecosystem, Kubernetes has established itself as the de facto standard in container orchestration. Thanks to a wide range of managed services, it has never been so easy to set up a ready-to-use Kubernetes cluster.
However, this ease of use means that the subject of security in Kubernetes is often left for later, or even neglected. This exposes companies to significant risks.
In this talk, I'll show you step-by-step how to secure your Kubernetes cluster for greater peace of mind and reliability.

Climate Impact of Software Testing at Nordic Testing DaysKari Kakkonen
My slides at Nordic Testing Days 6.6.2024
Climate impact / sustainability of software testing discussed on the talk. ICT and testing must carry their part of global responsibility to help with the climat warming. We can minimize the carbon footprint but we can also have a carbon handprint, a positive impact on the climate. Quality characteristics can be added with sustainability, and then measured continuously. Test environments can be used less, and in smaller scale and on demand. Test techniques can be used in optimizing or minimizing number of tests. Test automation can be used to speed up testing.

9. Platform Leadership
Two key points:
1. To have platform potential…must satisfy two prerequisite conditions:
(1) It should perform at least one essential function within what can be
described as a quot;system of usequot; or solve an essential technological
problem within an industry, and
(2) it should be easy to connect to or to build upon to expand the system of
use as well as to allow new and even unintended end-uses.
2. … platform leaders must address both the technical and business aspects of
platform adoption.
