For wound care providers and other clinicians, 2017 continued to bring about a chaotic storm of healthcare reform based on quality measures, data registry requirements, and documentation standards. As has been previously stated in this journal, it remains to be seen if wound care practitioners will pool their limited resources and harness the power of their electronic health records to battle the “giant of healthcare reform.”1 This country’s push to enact and substantiate quality of care delivery can be seen through the uniting of clinical practice with increasingly sophisticated digital technology that allows for more accurate documentation and communication. For good reason, the focus of this union is being placed on the perspective of the patient (ie, how the patient receives healthcare information). However, it is becoming increasingly clear that there is a need for clinicians to be armed with devices that more easily and effectively facilitate the means to that end. This article will discuss the proliferation of healthcare-related digital apps that are both patient and clinician focused in an attempt to lay a foundation for wound care clinicians to become more technologically savvy and clinically compliant.

The Application of Data to Problem-Solving
In the modern era, there are few professions that do not to some extent rely on data. Stockbrokers rely on market data to advise clients on financial matters. Meteorologists rely on weather data to forecast weather conditions, while realtors rely on data to advise on the purchase and sale of property. In these and other cases, data not only helps solve problems, but adds to the practitioner’s and the discipline’s body of knowledge.
Of course, the nursing profession also relies heavily on data. The field of nursing informatics aims to make sure nurses have access to the appropriate date to solve healthcare problems, make decisions in the interest of patients, and add to knowledge.
In this Discussion, you will consider a scenario that would benefit from access to data and how such access could facilitate both problem-solving and knowledge formation.
To Prepare:
Reflect on the concepts of informatics and knowledge work as presented in the Resources.
Consider a hypothetical scenario based on your own healthcare practice or organization that would require or benefit from the access/collection and application of data. Your scenario may involve a patient, staff, or management problem or gap.
By Day 3 of Week 1

Discussion #1- Initial Post
All healthcare workers are trained to share the common goal of providing the best quality of care to their patients. Regardless of what role one may serve on the multidisciplinary team, they all have an obligation to accurately assess the needs of the patient, to efficiently collect and record data, to contribute to diagnosing, and to treat/ evaluate properly. “Informatics blend technology and information to blend something new that people, organizations and society can make use of” (Laureate, 2018). Advancement in technologies such as, electronic health records (EHR), electronic medication administration records (EMARS), computerized physician order entry (COPOE) and.
Payers are being challenged as the industry shifts from volume-based care to a value-based reimbursement structure that would benefit the patient, the healthcare provider and the payer. New payment models including fee-for-service only and pay-for performance creates impetus for payers to acquire, aggregate, and analyze data.
Healthcare data and its impact upon the patient care decision process via accurate, real-time, reliable data from disparate sources is creating a digital health revolution. Data-driven healthcare is beginning to have a huge impact addressing the challenges of every provider, through efficient handling of huge volumes of patient care data.
Providers need to move towards real-time analytics that have become critical to demonstrate their quality of care, as reimbursement by government programs can be contingent upon how providers are measured in “Quality of Care”. For example, the Medicare Access and CHIP Reauthorization Act (MACRA) of 2015, also called the Permanent Doc Fix, changes the way Medicare doctors are reimbursed with the implementation of a merit based incentive. The performance-based pressure is huge, which makes it imperative that every provider consider technology solutions. Read more at https://www.solix.com/solutions/data-driven-solutions/healthcare/
Big Data in Healthcare
Hospital and healthcare providers can use big data to expand the scope of their projects and draw comparisons over larger populations of data. Because big data involves the use of automation and artificial intelligence, data can be processed in larger volumes and higher velocity to uncover valuable insights for Management.
Big data enables management to proactively identify issues with real-time access to the data so that decisions can be base more on hard evidence and facts, rather than emphasizing on guesswork and assumptions about customers, employees, and vendors. Applying analytics to big data creates many opportunities for healthcare businesses to gain greater insight, predict future outcomes and automate non-routine tasks.
Healthcare industries have gone through massive technology driven transformations over the past decade. This is a result of the significant advancement in digitized, disruptive, open sourced and pervasive healthcare information technologies and peripherals in application, that are continuously producing huge volumes of diversified data. In a recent literature review, Agrawal and Prabakaran1 suggested that big data are an integral part of “the next generation of technological developments” that reveal new insights from vast quantities of data being produced from various sectors, including health care. (Shah J Miah, Edwin Camilleria, and H. Quan Vub).
Healthcare requires a lot of analysis and less room for error, with big data and analytics procedure can be game changer. Healthcare busines requires to analyze, store, and continuously update patient’s data and these tasks cannot efficiently be achieved without the help of big data.
According to Pastorino, the use of big data in health care can provision the design of solutions that improve patient care and can generate value and new strategies to overcome dynamic challenges in healthcare organizations. This is attributed to big data in health care providing an opportunity to detect meaningful patterns, which in turn produce actionable knowledge for precision medicine and various healthcare decision-makers. (Shah J Miah, Edwin Camilleria, and H. Quan Vu)
Harmony Alliance stated that opportunities offered by big data “will only materialize when healthcare systems move beyond the mere collection of large amounts of data. Linkage of previously separated data sets and their analysis using appropriate big data analytics offer new ways to accelerate research and to identify the right treatment for individual patients. Access to large data sets that paint a more comprehensive picture of patients allows patient-relevant outcomes to be measured more accurately.”
Big data is becoming crucial in this time of Covid-19, where data need to be collected from different corner of the globe. Data are collected in a big amount and need to be processed in real time so the decision-makers can have enough information to work on. Today’s world is interconnected, and pa ...

Classmate’s Discussion 1
The technological advancements that have occurred in the field of healthcare have greatly changed the way people view and interact with the healthcare system. They have also led to the reduction of costs and the increasing efficiency of the system. We expect that the future of healthcare will continue to be influenced by information technology.
Due to the technological advancements that have occurred in the field of healthcare, physicians are now able to spend less time with their patients. This has allowed them to provide more effective and efficient care to their patients. In the future, we can expect that the increasing number of specialists who can delegate their work to other doctors will have a significant impact on the healthcare system. The increasing efficiency of doctors is expected to have a significant impact on the shortage of specialist physicians in the future. This issue could be solved using technology. Hopefully, the use of information technology can help boost the number of specialist physicians (Patric, 2022).
Electronic health records have revolutionized the way healthcare is done. Despite the progress that has been made in terms of keeping and tracking these records, they are still not widely used yet. This means that the kind of growth that was expected from the adoption of these records has not materialized. Although the adoption of electronic health records has been made in various parts of the world, it’s still not widely used in all areas. This means that the ability to keep track of one’s medical history is still very important (Patric, 2022).
The increasing importance of information technology in healthcare has led to the prediction that the cost of healthcare will eventually come down. Various factors such as better accessibility and efficiency will help make healthcare more affordable and more effective.
It’s widely believed that keeping one's health is much cheaper and easier than treating a.
Big Data Risks and Rewards (good length and at least 3-4 references .docxtangyechloe
Big Data Risks and Rewards (good length and at least 3-4 references everything in APA 7 format)
When you wake in the morning, you may reach for your cell phone to reply to a few text or email messages that you missed overnight. On your drive to work, you may stop to refuel your car. Upon your arrival, you might swipe a key card at the door to gain entrance to the facility. And before finally reaching your workstation, you may stop by the cafeteria to purchase a coffee.
From the moment you wake, you are in fact a data-generation machine. Each use of your phone, every transaction you make using a debit or credit card, even your entrance to your place of work, creates data. It begs the question: How much data do you generate each day? Many studies have been conducted on this, and the numbers are staggering: Estimates suggest that nearly 1 million bytes of data are generated every second for every person on earth.
As the volume of data increases, information professionals have looked for ways to use big data—large, complex sets of data that require specialized approaches to use effectively. Big data has the potential for significant rewards—and significant risks—to healthcare. In this Discussion, you will consider these risks and rewards.

We Call It “Social Realization” — Reasserting Brand Influence within Social to Connect with Consumers
Chrissy Stanojev, Senior Social Media Strategist, MRM//McCANN
Consumers are content creators with high expectations from the brands they care about. They value peer connections, and peer influence is vital. Now more than ever, consumers have the ability to shape brands. And social has been the agent of change. Social Realization recognizes that social is not just a channel, platform, or a behavior, or even publishing content to a Facebook page. Social Realization is reasserting brand influence to connect with consumers. The success of Social Realization relies heavily on the relationship between an agency and a pharmaceutical company. It is crucial for a partnered agency to identify and understand the factors impacting the brand while keeping the brand’s reputation and safety at the forefront.
• Become a trusted partner through constant research and an in-depth knowledge of the brand(s), category and key trends impacting the market
• Stay in lock step with the latest social platform capabilities to enable rather than hinder Pharma’s presence in the social sphere

Observability Concepts EVERY Developer Should Know -- DeveloperWeek Europe.pdfPaige Cruz
Monitoring and observability aren’t traditionally found in software curriculums and many of us cobble this knowledge together from whatever vendor or ecosystem we were first introduced to and whatever is a part of your current company’s observability stack.
While the dev and ops silo continues to crumble….many organizations still relegate monitoring & observability as the purview of ops, infra and SRE teams. This is a mistake - achieving a highly observable system requires collaboration up and down the stack.
I, a former op, would like to extend an invitation to all application developers to join the observability party will share these foundational concepts to build on:
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.

WILL MOBILE APPS BRING
WOUND CARE TECHNOLOGY
TO THE “CUTTING EDGE”?
Chrissy Stanojev
“In any given moment, we have two options: to step forward into growth or to
step back into safety.”
– Abraham H. Maslow
F
or wound care providers and other
clinicians, 2017 continued to bring
about a chaotic storm of healthcare
reform based on quality measures, data
registry requirements,and documentation
standards.As has been previously stated in
this journal,it remains to be seen if wound
care practitioners will pool their limited
resources and harness the power of their
electronic health records to battle the“gi-
ant of healthcare reform.”1
This country’s
push to enact and substantiate quality of
care delivery can be seen through the
uniting of clinical practice with increas-
ingly sophisticated digital technology that
allows for more accurate documentation
and communication. For good reason,
the focus of this union is being placed on
the perspective of the patient (ie, how the
patient receives healthcare information).
However,it is becoming increasingly clear
that there is a need for clinicians to be
armed with devices that more easily and
effectively facilitate the means to that end.
This article will discuss the proliferation
of healthcare-related digital apps that are
both patient and clinician focused in an
attempt to lay a foundation for wound
care clinicians to become more techno-
logically savvy and clinically compliant.
HEALTHCARE APPS
@ YOUR FINGERTIPS
Today’s variety of digital healthcare
apps can be useful for patient educa-
tion and adherence, as well as for serv-
ing as treatment documentation tools.
(A sampling of apps is shown in Figure
1 above.) However, harnessing the in-
credible opportunity that specific apps
can bring to the wound care industry
space might be those that provide ac-
cess to patient outcomes data. In the
opinion of the author, mobile applica-
tions such as the TapCloud, eKare in-
Sight®
2.0, and Tissue Analytics could
change the wound care space as we
know it within the next 3-5 years.
These apps are examples of those that
aggregate important outcomes data (eg,
patient-generated health data [PGHD],
wound tissue data) into actionable in-
sights with the ability to dramatically
impact the quality of care being provid-
ed. In a time where quality, objective,
and timely recorded documentation
reigns supreme, these apps could be in-
strumental to the success of all wound
care clinicians. (It should be noted that
currently, none of these apps are recog-
nized by the Centers for Medicare
Medicaid Services [CMS] for the re-
porting of quality measure data as part
of the Merit-Based Incentive Payment
System [MIPS]. CMS does recog-
nize the Patient-Reported Outcomes
Measurement Information System for

although none of these
tools are specific to wound care.
TapCloud is a comprehensive plat-
form that covers more than 90 clini-
cal conditions and connects patients
and clinicians outside the clinical set-
ting. Rather than biometric data, such
as number of steps or blood pressure,
the data focus is on how the patient is
feeling (compared to yesterday). The
platform has two parts: the patient
app provides information to and col-
lects information from patients, and
the clinical dashboard synthesizes the
large volume of individual data points
and converts them into an easy-to-
use visualization. The app was created
as a way to capture the voice of the
patient by collecting the right data at
the right time to enable better health
outcomes.”3
TapCloud’s platform pro-
vides care plans, reminders, and criti-
cal health information to patients.
Through patent-pending technology,
information about the patient can be
gathered — information such as how
the patient is feeling, presence of any
pain or other symptoms, medication
and care plan tracking, disease progres-
sion, medication side effects, historical
behavior, and patient engagement.3
TapCloud then “translates” PGHD
into usable information for clinicians
and visualizations enable rapid, ef-
fective clinician intervention (that is
bilingual). In real time, clinicians can
grasp what is happening with a patient,
as well as potential contributing fac-
tors to their health status. Extensive
research and engineering by the in-
Sight 2.0 have validated overall system
accuracy and reproducibility of 3D
volumetric measurements.To that end,
the inSight device has been shown to
reduce intra- and interoperator vari-
ability while significantly reducing
time to acquire measurements. Built
to operate on an iPad and iPhone X,
the mobile platform and its use should
be familiar to clinicians. The app
streamlines wound measurement, as-
sessment, and treatment planning, and
obtaining wound measurement is as
simple as taking a photo using a tablet
or iPhone X. The eKare inSight is a
HIPAA-compliant cloud solution built
on Aptible, an organization that seeks
to help developers excel at data secu-
rity and compliance.Through this app,
users can safely share and analyze data
with their care teams on a common
platform to improve care coordination
and patient-centered management.
APPS THAT GATHER PGHD
QUALITY MEASURES DATA
Apps that provide PGHD are ahead
of the projected five-year curve in
which such data will be relied upon
more heavily; meaning that using these
apps will put wound care clinics, clini-
cians and their practices ahead of that
curve.4
Consider:
• Patient outcomes data are directly
related to the clinician’s practice,
allowing for identification of key
outcomes-related indicators, treat-
ment insight, and patient adherence
insight that clinicians can leverage
to make adjustments within their
own practice.
• Taking ownership of ample, viable
opportunities to pioneer this indus-
try vertical through partnerships that
enable clinicians to work with apps
and/or other technology developers
to request inclusion of information,
such as the U.S. Wound Registry’s
(USWR’s) MIPS-approved quality
measures, directly within the app.
• Leveraging apps to harness real-world
data to impact coverage based on
proven effectiveness through PGHD.
• Utilizing PGHD apps to serve as
clinician-listed “clinical practice

under MIPS. (Note: Specific
CPIAs must be cross walked to the
list provided by CMS and submit-
ted to CMS through a qualified
clinical data registry.)
• Leveraging the unique, broad, and
diverse wound care specialty to
serve as a trusted strategic partner
for app developers, manufacturers,
and industry at large.
THINKING AHEAD/
CURRENT DIGITAL LANDSCAPE
Currently, social media data analysis
show that healthcare practitioners are
utilizing social media to communicate
with their peers rather than leverag-
ing social media as a tool to provide
information to patients/caregivers
and raise awareness of the wound care
industry (Figure 2, page 17). The
wound care space is unique; thus, find-
ing relevant or helpful information is
difficult and, in turn, leaves patients
and caregivers in a seemingly barren
“patient centered” digital landscape.
To identify a viable point of entry in
the social ecosystem for wound care,
one can look to similar or “lookalike
demographics” to better understand
the manner in which that target pa-
tient demographic communicates and
engages across the digital ecosystem.
For wound care, the lookalike audi-
ence is the larger and overwhelmingly
supportive chronic illness community
(ie, #Spoonies). By engaging with this
pre-existing community, wound care
can begin to carve its own niche pres-
ence. “Wound healing” search data,
in comparison to the large volume
of “chronic condition” search topic
queries, show viable opportunity for
engagement within the chronic illness
community (Figure 3, page 17).
THE BIG PICTURE
An omnipresent digital and social
ecosystem will effectively direct pa-
tients and caregivers to educational
information and raise awareness of the
wound care industry to improve healing
of chronic wounds and patients’ quality
of life.The future-forward approach for
wound care clinicians should be “app
inclusive, social media inclusive, and
digital presence inclusive.” n

Providers’ Attitudes Impact
Patients’ Technology Adoption
A new report published by The Lan-
cet claims that patients’access to emerg-
ing diabetes technology can be influ-
enced in part by the attitudes of their
healthcare clinicians towards embrac-
ing specific technologies. According
to the report Access to Diabetes Technol-
ogy: The Role of Clinician Attitudes, the
role of clinicians in recommending
or approving technology for patients
suggests that their attitudes could be
central in mediating patient access to
technology. Other factors taken into
account include funding limitations
and varying characteristics of different
clinics. Visit www.thelancet.com for
