LECTURE
The Impact of Technology on Clinical and IT Systems
Introduction
One of the factors driving change in the health care delivery system is the rapidly evolving technology that emerges from research and development. Emerging technologies create rapid and profound change in the delivery system and may have drastic financial impacts. However, adapting new technologies without a clear understanding of what they can do for and to the system is never a good idea. They must be evaluated for their abilities to enhance the quality of care, along with their capacity to drive new revenue in a procedure-based delivery system. Finally, the cost of new technology is highly correlated with how new it is, and whether it is a stand-alone product with no competition. All of these factors combine to make it essential to do careful business and clinical analyses prior to committing to even the most appealing new technology.
In this module, we will examine two types of new technology: clinical applications and the electronic medical record (EMR).
Clinical Technology
In the realm of clinical technology, there are numerous subgroups. In selected subgroups, we will explore examples of new technology that is in the research and development pipeline.
Cardiovascular
The underlying theme of technology in cardiovascular care is the shift from significantly invasive approaches, such as open cardiac bypass surgery requiring a split sterna surgical approach and the use of a heart lung machine to maintain the patient during surgery, toward minimally invasive or noninvasive techniques. Ultra-wide band radar devices allow the measurement of cardiac output, heart rate, heart rhythm, and patterns of blood flow without any invasion of the body. The device is roughly the size of a deck of cards and can be worn in a shirt pocket without leads or monitor pads. The use of this type of radar-based approach allows noninvasive monitoring without pain or limitation of movement by patients.
Another cardiovascular application is the use of bio-absorbable, drug-eluting stents to open coronary arteries. The old technology required a surgical intervention that involved removing an artery from another part of the body and suturing it to the blocked coronary artery to provide a bridge for blood to flow past the blockage. This generally required hours in the operating room, with a patient on a heart bypass machine, and several days to a week in the intensive care unit after surgery. This has been largely replaced by placing stents or coils in the coronary arteries to hold them open. This is done in the cardiac catheterization lab under sedation or light anesthesia and is accomplished by threading a catheter through the arm or leg vein up to the heart and into the artery. However, historically these types of stents could block up again. The newest technology involves placing a bio-absorbable stent that eventually melts into the arterial wall, along with the drug-eluting aspect, which preven ...

mHealth Israel_Dr. Marvin Slepian_ Innovation: A Vital Ingredient for the Ad...Levi Shapiro
To remain as an effective leading force in the US, world-wide and society in general, Medicine has to actively adopt Innovation in its teaching and culture, rather than letting it occur passively. Dr. Slepian discusses Innovation Thinking and Science for addressing the enormous healthcare challenges facing the US.
Innovation is needed to overcome the many stresses that exist
on Medicine today - increased prevention, better Dxics and Txics
cost-effectiveness, increased access to care
Lecture on the role of information systems within healthcare. Adressing the various types of information systems and their respective benefits. Also, PACS maturity as a concept is introduced.
Dr Sanjoy Sanyal wrote this article when he was doing his Masters in Royal College of Surgeons of Edinburgh, University of Bath, United Kingdom.
It traces the origin of the term and discipline called 'Medical Informatics'; describes its evolution and mentions its current healthcare applicability and academic status.
It is fundamental towards understanding today's Information Explosion and its digital implications in all work atmospheres.
Today Dr Sanjoy Sanyal is Professor and Course Director of Neuroscience and FCM-III in Caribbean.
Medical imaging is part of a changing medical environment, a changing
patient environment and consequently a new medical world. In the
recent decennium one of the most important changes in radiology is the
conversion from analogue to digital. In no time medical images have
become interchangeable through the digital highway and could be postprocessed
in a different location. Teleradiology has become a reality
since then. We have seen the maturation of commercial international
teleradiology companies offering a wide portfolio of services. Another
aspect is the availability of image data for all medical specialties beyond
radiology and beyond the regular medical disciplines. An increasing
number of surgical or oncological specialties and even pharmaceutical
companies increasingly use image data to prepare a strategy for
operative procedures, to choose the right therapy, to decide which
prosthesis to the best to use, for follow-up or for post-processing
purposes. They are supported by many new techniques and software.
An increasing number of medical computer applications such as complex
navigation and visualisation tools based upon digital images is already
in clinical use or under development. Another trend is the increasing
interest in E-health and telemedicine in Europe, also among European
policy makers. Now we see mobile health that brings care directly into
the patient environment. The purpose of this presentation is to give a
comprehensive overview of and insight into these new developments and
to create awareness among radiologists of the increasing importance of
integration of medical imaging in a multidisciplinary environment.

The advent and advancement in technology specific to medical field has seen a migration of its
work across the globe, adapting higher and newer levels of m-health. Technology has been
successful in transforming the way traditional monitoring and alert system work to a modern
approach wherein minimizing the need for physical monitoring. Today, the field of healthcare
use varied monitoring systems to monitor the health of patients using ubiquitous and nonubiquitous
devices. These are sensor based devices that can read vital signs of patients and send
the data to the required personnel’s using mobile networks. This paper understands and
analyses how the monitoring and alert system works specific to m-health. m-health including
wearable and non-wearable devices read various vital signs and have the ability to monitor
health real-time and transfer the information collected using mobile network. m-health has
become an useful tool for elderly in this fast paced world where almost all the family members
are working or studying to keep track and maintain optimal health status. m-health alert system
involves the patient, the caretaker and medical service provider wherein the patient wears the
device and vital signs recorded are transferred the medical service provider who then analyses
the data collected and required changes in the medication are implemented. This paper
proposes a medical alert system that enlightens the capabilities of m-health making health
monitoring easy and reliable. It contains a three-level severity check and raises an alarm to the
caretaker, the physician or the ambulatory service provider.

"It must be realized that there is nothing more difficult to plan, more uncertain of success, or more dangerous to manage than the establishment of a new order of things; for he who introduces it makes enemies of all those who derived advantage from the old order and finds but lukewarm defenders among those who stand to gain from the new one" - Niccolo Machiavelli
