Biomedical Communications
National Library of Medicine

Personal Health Records (PHRs) are proposed as solutions to many of the problems concerning record keeping and unification of data.This refers to a patient from multiple sites, and has attracted much attention in the lay press and industry.The National Library of Medicine (NLM) is developing an open source PHR that takes advantage of NLM’s rich knowledge and vocabulary resources. In addition to managing these records, the first version of the system will provide links to NLM’s knowledge resource and reminders about needed preventive care.

Weill Cornell Medical College
Director of Quality and Patient Safety
Komansky Center for Childrens’ Health at New York Presbyterian Hospital

The Health Information Technology Evaluation Collaborative (HITEC) is a multi-institutional effort to maximize the impact of HEAL NY, a $250 million investment by New York State in health information technology (IT) through the application of rigorous evaluation methodology. HITEC is conducting economic, quality, safety, and public health evaluations of health IT, as well as characterizing consumers and providers opinions’ of health IT.

6B. LIES AND LISTS – LESSONS OF ELECTRONIC HEALTH RECORDS IN MEDICINEWeb Cast

(Intermediate Level)

Scott Wallace

President & CEO
The National Alliance for Health Information Technology

Five years into the national effort to establish a national health information system, it is clear that some of the things health practitioners have been told about electronic health records simply aren’t true, and that there are some unambiguous lessons about what clinicians should do to ensure electronic health records enable better care for patients. This session will explore the lessons and provide some insights for anticipating the next five years in electronic medicine.

6C. UTILIZING DATA FROM ELECTRONIC DOCUMENTATION

(All Levels)

Ruth Mooney, PhD, MN, BSN

Consultant
Ruth Mooney Enterprises

This presentation will explore evidence-based practice and electronic documentation. We will explore the implementation of several systems and follow the use of data generated from those systems. Examples include implementation of a falls prevention model using electronic documentation, “Smart Pumps” for IV and PCA administration, and electronic medication administration.

6D. DEVELOPING NEW MODELS OF PERSONAL HEALTH RECORDS: HEALTH 2.0, SECOND LIFE AND BEYOND

Co-director of the Patient Simulation Center
Fellow, CHIRAD

This presentation explores the increasingly patient-driven development of personal health records. Building on recent developments from Google,Microsoft and other ‘non-traditional’ providers of personal health records, as
well as other developments within health care settings (e.g. the UK’s NHS HealthSpace and Denmark’s sundhed.dk), the presenters explore the implications of “Health 2.0” developments, such as “Second Health,” and implications of other new applications for the nature of, and forms of interaction with, health records.

6E. TRUSTWORTHINESS OF DATA IN HEALTH CARE INFORMATION SYSTEMS: WHAT IS IT?
HOW TO ASSESS IT?

The quality and accuracy of the data in Health Care Information Systems (HISs) often directly impact the
safety, quality, and revenues of health care organizations. In this presentation, a panel of experts will assist frontline administrators, clinicians, and informaticians in harnessing the quality and accuracy of the HISs’ data by identifying potential sources of data errors, describing methods to evaluate them, and suggesting approaches to
minimize the risk of such errors.

6F. FULFILLING THE PUBLIC TRUST IN THE SECONDARY USE OF HEALTH DATA: THE MAYO CLINIC EXPERIENCE

(Expert Level)

Marcelline Harris, PhD, RN

Nurse Researcher
Mayo Clinic

There is a public trust that a greater good will be achieved when data collected in the course of providing care are made available for secondary use. This presentation describes the principles, practices, and information infrastructures that have enabled Mayo Clinic to maintain that trust for over 100 years as health records have evolved from index cards to chartless, digital systems.
