The document summarizes a concept for an improved hospital patient room called "The hospital room 2020" created by NXT Health. It recognizes NXT's goal of bringing healthcare design up to date by building community, introducing technology, and reintroducing clinical aesthetics. However, it notes the concept introduces unnecessary complexity and many of the suggested improvements could be achieved now with minimal costs instead of an engineered system. While the overall vision is positive, the design has issues and the goals could be better reached through simpler, more practical solutions.
For many doctors, the idea of a light, portable, powerful device that they could integrate with their daily professional lives was the stuff of fairy tales… until the iPad. Come and learn more about how doctors are using this device to improve point-of-care service, make rounding more efficient, etc. iPads will be available for hands-on study, and Kimberley (your technology fairy godmother) will explain how you can check one out!

As Kahlil Gibran, the famous theologian once said, “Progress lies not in enhancing what is, but advancing what will be”. The advancement of technology seems to move at such a rate that even ‘before you blink’ a new innovation is already introduced. The smart phone was a breakthrough technology just a short time ago, and now, it is fully integrated into life’s everyday experience. It is almost a certainty that today’s medical innovations will follow suit.

7 Pitfalls to Avoid in mHealth Web or App Design— White PaperUBM Canon
As medical and wellness devices converge, health care providers, mHealth companies, and device makers are facing a number of critical — and increasingly complex — issues, including:
• Ensuring that patients and HCPs actually use their apps and devices
• Presenting potentially confusing — or alarming — data so that it is understandable and actionable
• Unknowingly triggering the need for regulatory approval • Sharing and ownership of data, beyond HIPAA concerns
This White Paper illuminates 7 pitfalls that when avoided can increase the success of an mHealth web or app design.

Section 7.2Problem Solving
Incremental Creativity
While most people think of creativity as generating entirely new ideas based on imagina-
tion, there are several other ways to achieve it. Improving a product or service or a busi-
ness function through incremental improvements on existing ideas is less dramatic than
inventing something entirely new, but it is essential to organizational success. Applying
organizational theorist Karl Weick’s (1984) small wins strategy, these modest improve-
ments generate both momentum toward and confidence about achieving a larger desired
goal. Kotter (1995) considers creating short-term wins as one of the essential steps in his
organizational change model; recommending that aspiring change agents develop strate-
gies to achieve small but visible performance improvements, while also recognizing and
rewarding the employees responsible for achieving them.
Examples of this type of creativity in health care organizations include:
• Urgent care centers that allow people who need or want medical treatment right
away for a condition that is not so serious that they need to go to a hospital emer-
gency room. Originally disparaged as “doc-in-the-box” practices, today they are
operated by hospitals and medical groups as a cost-effective alternative to crowded
and expensive hospital emergency rooms.
• Hospitalists are physicians who oversee the care of patients while they are hospi-
talized. Usually internal medicine or other primary care physicians, they coordi-
nate with both the patient’s primary care physician and the different specialists
who provide consultation or treatment, as well as with the nursing team, to ensure
a smooth admission and discharge process and monitor follow-up care.

Étude PwC sur les objets connectés "The Wearable Future" (oct. 2014)PwC France
http://bit.ly/TheWearableFutureCP
L’étude du cabinet d’audit et de conseil PwC « The wearable future » montre que les « wearables » (vêtements ou accessoires connectés) sont de plus en plus présents dans le quotidien des Américains : en 2014 plus d’un Américain sur 5 déclare posséder au moins un « wearable ».
Ces nouveaux objets technologiques intéressent en priorité la génération Y puisqu’elle se déclare 55 % plus susceptible de posséder un « wearable », et 67 % plus attirée par ces nouvelles technologies.
Pour 3 Américains sur 4, ces différents « wearables » doivent à l’avenir permettre à la fois d’être plus réactifs et efficaces au travail, mais également de disposer de plus de temps libre.
The wearable trend is here and its impact will be broad and significant. From fitness, to wellness and beyond, wearable technology will be a major part of the internet of things movement.
Chances are that the delivery of your healthcare is about to evolve, if it hasn’t already. Collaboration technologies are transforming how doctors and patients interact – from remote video consultations to wearable health monitoring devices, the Digital Healthcare era is knocking!
We are still in the toddler phase of the “wearable” generation. Much of what we “touch” currently is just noise in the form of data.
Where is it going? We break down some predictions.

Recomendações da OMS sobre cuidados maternos e neonatais para uma experiência pós-natal positiva.
Em consonância com os ODS – Objetivos do Desenvolvimento Sustentável e a Estratégia Global para a Saúde das Mulheres, Crianças e Adolescentes, e aplicando uma abordagem baseada nos direitos humanos, os esforços de cuidados pós-natais devem expandir-se para além da cobertura e da simples sobrevivência, de modo a incluir cuidados de qualidade.
Estas diretrizes visam melhorar a qualidade dos cuidados pós-natais essenciais e de rotina prestados às mulheres e aos recém-nascidos, com o objetivo final de melhorar a saúde e o bem-estar materno e neonatal.
Uma “experiência pós-natal positiva” é um resultado importante para todas as mulheres que dão à luz e para os seus recém-nascidos, estabelecendo as bases para a melhoria da saúde e do bem-estar a curto e longo prazo. Uma experiência pós-natal positiva é definida como aquela em que as mulheres, pessoas que gestam, os recém-nascidos, os casais, os pais, os cuidadores e as famílias recebem informação consistente, garantia e apoio de profissionais de saúde motivados; e onde um sistema de saúde flexível e com recursos reconheça as necessidades das mulheres e dos bebês e respeite o seu contexto cultural.
Estas diretrizes consolidadas apresentam algumas recomendações novas e já bem fundamentadas sobre cuidados pós-natais de rotina para mulheres e neonatos que recebem cuidados no pós-parto em unidades de saúde ou na comunidade, independentemente dos recursos disponíveis.
É fornecido um conjunto abrangente de recomendações para cuidados durante o período puerperal, com ênfase nos cuidados essenciais que todas as mulheres e recém-nascidos devem receber, e com a devida atenção à qualidade dos cuidados; isto é, a entrega e a experiência do cuidado recebido. Estas diretrizes atualizam e ampliam as recomendações da OMS de 2014 sobre cuidados pós-natais da mãe e do recém-nascido e complementam as atuais diretrizes da OMS sobre a gestão de complicações pós-natais.
O estabelecimento da amamentação e o manejo das principais intercorrências é contemplada.
Recomendamos muito.
Vamos discutir essas recomendações no nosso curso de pós-graduação em Aleitamento no Instituto Ciclos.

New Directions in Targeted Therapeutic Approaches for Older Adults With Mantl...i3 Health
i3 Health is pleased to make the speaker slides from this activity available for use as a non-accredited self-study or teaching resource.
This slide deck presented by Dr. Kami Maddocks, Professor-Clinical in the Division of Hematology and
Associate Division Director for Ambulatory Operations
The Ohio State University Comprehensive Cancer Center, will provide insight into new directions in targeted therapeutic approaches for older adults with mantle cell lymphoma.
STATEMENT OF NEED
Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) is a rare, aggressive B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) accounting for 5% to 7% of all lymphomas. Its prognosis ranges from indolent disease that does not require treatment for years to very aggressive disease, which is associated with poor survival (Silkenstedt et al, 2021). Typically, MCL is diagnosed at advanced stage and in older patients who cannot tolerate intensive therapy (NCCN, 2022). Although recent advances have slightly increased remission rates, recurrence and relapse remain very common, leading to a median overall survival between 3 and 6 years (LLS, 2021). Though there are several effective options, progress is still needed towards establishing an accepted frontline approach for MCL (Castellino et al, 2022). Treatment selection and management of MCL are complicated by the heterogeneity of prognosis, advanced age and comorbidities of patients, and lack of an established standard approach for treatment, making it vital that clinicians be familiar with the latest research and advances in this area. In this activity chaired by Michael Wang, MD, Professor in the Department of Lymphoma & Myeloma at MD Anderson Cancer Center, expert faculty will discuss prognostic factors informing treatment, the promising results of recent trials in new therapeutic approaches, and the implications of treatment resistance in therapeutic selection for MCL.
Target Audience
Hematology/oncology fellows, attending faculty, and other health care professionals involved in the treatment of patients with mantle cell lymphoma (MCL).
Learning Objectives
1.) Identify clinical and biological prognostic factors that can guide treatment decision making for older adults with MCL
2.) Evaluate emerging data on targeted therapeutic approaches for treatment-naive and relapsed/refractory MCL and their applicability to older adults
3.) Assess mechanisms of resistance to targeted therapies for MCL and their implications for treatment selection
Flu Vaccine Alert in Bangalore Karnatakaaddon Scans
As flu season approaches, health officials in Bangalore, Karnataka, are urging residents to get their flu vaccinations. The seasonal flu, while common, can lead to severe health complications, particularly for vulnerable populations such as young children, the elderly, and those with underlying health conditions.
Dr. Vidisha Kumari, a leading epidemiologist in Bangalore, emphasizes the importance of getting vaccinated. "The flu vaccine is our best defense against the influenza virus. It not only protects individuals but also helps prevent the spread of the virus in our communities," he says.
This year, the flu season is expected to coincide with a potential increase in other respiratory illnesses. The Karnataka Health Department has launched an awareness campaign highlighting the significance of flu vaccinations. They have set up multiple vaccination centers across Bangalore, making it convenient for residents to receive their shots.
To encourage widespread vaccination, the government is also collaborating with local schools, workplaces, and community centers to facilitate vaccination drives. Special attention is being given to ensuring that the vaccine is accessible to all, including marginalized communities who may have limited access to healthcare.
Residents are reminded that the flu vaccine is safe and effective. Common side effects are mild and may include soreness at the injection site, mild fever, or muscle aches. These side effects are generally short-lived and far less severe than the flu itself.
Healthcare providers are also stressing the importance of continuing COVID-19 precautions. Wearing masks, practicing good hand hygiene, and maintaining social distancing are still crucial, especially in crowded places.
Protect yourself and your loved ones by getting vaccinated. Together, we can help keep Bangalore healthy and safe this flu season. For more information on vaccination centers and schedules, residents can visit the Karnataka Health Department’s official website or follow their social media pages.
Stay informed, stay safe, and get your flu shot today!
7. Is a not for profit organisation
They think about design related healthcare
problems. Collaborating to innovate.
8. The hospital room 2020 is a concept for an
improved patient environment.
9. It groups together several previous ideas
putting them in to an ideal plan that has now been realised as a 1:1 model.
Although very little information has been made available, this report aims to
look critically at the concept.
10. NXT assert that the current
system is inefficient.
However, also realise that the
environment is complex and
restrictive.
They do what they do in order to
create a platform for new ideas.
One day they hope that their
ideas will be implemented.
11. NXT Health operate using what they call “Concept to market design”.
It consists of a cradle to cradle loop of continuous development.
1.
Design
Concept
2.
Proving Grounds
3.
Realisation
Works with interdisciplinary
teams of experts to create a
design concept
Establishes a proof of
concept through tests and
prototypes
Refines the design through
test implementations in
the real world.
12.
13. The concept picks up on emerging trends in the healthcare industry.
As the group assessed, the industry lags behind and needs to be brought up to date.
Mainly the group has tried to:
Build
community
Introduce
technology
Reintroduce the
clinical aesthetic
14. NXT Health recognises that patients like company.
Although few details are given NXT health indicates an integration of social networks.
The idea was previously implemented in their integrated over bed table.
15. Technology in the concept is used in four main areas:
This part provides a large
screen at the foot of the
bed. It can be used for
sharing information
between the caregiver and
patient.
It also integrates a lot of
storage and mood lighting.
The companion is an over
bed table with an
integrated touch tablet. It
allows the patient to
interact with the outside
world, support networks
and the screen in front of
them.
It also integrates wireless
charging for their personal
tech and storage for their
personal items.
This is a deployable
workstation containing an
iMac and an iPad.
It allows the caregiver to
work beside the patient
when assessing them,
cutting down on follow up
paperwork and improving
organisation.
16. The concept utilises Corian by DuPont.
Although Corian is not new it deserves to be showcased in a clinical
environment.
• Corian is non-porous – making it more difficult for bacteria to colonise.
• Corian also allows for heat moulded shapes and joins – making it possible
to have a sink without silicon sealant that can be easily disinfected.
17. *In a 2005 study published in the Medical Journal of America, 400 visitors to an outpatients clinic were shown a set of photos.
Each set showed:
• a doctor in "business" attire, wearing a smart jacket and tie, with a stethoscope
• the same doctor in "professional" attire of starched white jacket, still with the shirt and tie and stethoscope
• the same doctor in scrubs and trainers with a stethoscope
• the same doctor in T-shirt, jeans and trainers, with stethoscope
When asked who they trust on average 76% of respondents chose the professional attire of starched white jacket, followed by scrubs and business dress. The casual look attracted just 4.7% of
the vote, although it scored more highly in questions that probed whether doctors looked "caring and compassionate".
Studies show that looking
professional is important for
doctors*. So why should the same
not apply to hospitals?
Recently the most prominent
trend is for hospitals to look like
hotel rooms.
18. One problem key to hospital organisation is clutter.
The 2020 concept keeps all necessary equipment and supplies inside a compact
storage solution inside the patient ribbon.
20. The key issue with the concept is that it is a heavily engineered and
complex concept. While it looks deceptively simple, layers of complexity
have been added.
21. Working with future standards and technologies introduces risk.
Healthcare organisations are risk averse and need a realistic roadmap to work to.
In creating a vision of the future NXT aims to spur advancement by
suggesting what the next standard might be.
22. He is deeply acquainted with hospital rooms.
He presents an alternative set of designs, which are used in healthcare already.
His product designs are unexciting and less than futuristic, but practical.
Michael Graves is an Architect who became a paraplegic.
23. One thing that Michael graves noticed about over bed tables is that
the underside is often unclean.
This is because cleaning crews are less than perfect, but also because
patients grab tables by the side to manoeuvre them over to themselves.
To combat this Michael Graves put a handle on one end of the table that
patients could use to move it.
24. In contrast, the NXT health concept actively increases surfaces,
creating the following new surfaces on the PCU alone:
In between
inserted tablet
and casing
Screen of tablet
Table side
In between leg
stem and tablet
casing/table at
swivel joint.
Underside of
induction
charging pad
protruding
from side.
25. In a recent UK study it was estimated that there was £27m worth of food wastage
across the NHS in a year.
Having food on the table top restricts the use of the tablet computer on the flipside.
Additionally the idea of a flipping table does not consider the way in which tables
are really used.
Typically hospitals are a place where people are ill; often this can come with a
loss of appetite.
26. Although having these pieces of equipment to hand is useful, 72% of doctors
already use tablet computers.
So why not just let them use what they have?
The system also has an unnecessary amount of extras.
One such piece is the caregiver hub.
The caregiver hub integrates an iMac and iPad.
27. Corian is very expensive.
While the use of Corian most likely stemmed from a sponsorship of the
organisation, there are alternative solid surface technologies.
However, it is likely also that Corian serves as an easy way of explaining that

29. An additional unnecessary element that could be value engineered out would be the
screen at the end of the patient ribbon.
It’s purpose is to provide demonstration capabilities to the physician.
This can be achieved much more cheaply than building an ecosystem.
The functionality could even be retrofitted to existing facilities.
30. Google chromecast is $35
It plugs in to a TV HDMI slot and communicates with mobile devices to run
applications and act as second screen.
Content can be run from both native applications loaded to the device, or
HTML5 applications from the cloud using the DIAL protocol.
31. The ability to run cloud applications is important for cost reduction.
Applications can be written in HTML5 meaning that one application could be
written to run as a native application via the browser of any phone or PC that
supports the standard.
