This TED talk explains well how data and informatics can be used in healthcare and help patients. He talks about how it can prevent health issues that the patient is susceptible to based on patient genomics and biologics. Building in live prediction charts based on individual level data can help us to improve health outcomes. This models can predict your healthcare and would allow you to address it. Aaron Black also talks about the risks of working with data. He mentions the importance of accuracy of the information collected for valid outcomes. Aaron Black emphasized how data in healthcare can be a privacy issue. andersa41 https://padlet.com/andersa41/tpppxg9s8iakgkpk/wish/2448368518 2023-01-18 14:01:44 UTC https://padlet.com/andersa41/tpppxg9s8iakgkpk/wish/2448368518 andersa41 https://padlet.com/andersa41/tpppxg9s8iakgkpk/wish/2448399477  This website not only explains what it is but also explains what Nurses that work in Informatics do and what their responsibilities are. With the COVID pandemic a lot of jobs focused on working online. When I thought about Nurse Informatics I thought they mostly work from home but what I found out was different. They work in hospitals, urgent care clinics, counseling centers, technology companies, ambulatory care centers, healthcare product companies, EHR companies, and many more.]]> 2023-01-18 14:21:43 UTC https://padlet.com/andersa41/tpppxg9s8iakgkpk/wish/2448399477 What is Nursing Informatics? andersa41 https://padlet.com/andersa41/tpppxg9s8iakgkpk/wish/2448402162 Nursing informatics is a specialty that combines technology and patient care.
 The ANA defines it as: "the specialty that integrates nursing science with multiple information and analytical sciences to identify, define, manage, and communicate data, information, knowledge, and wisdom in nursing practice."

It talks about TIGER initiative with some background on it. It also has some case studies and Recommendations. Recommendations are written in a way as to what  Information technology vendors,  Healthcare delivery organizations, Government and policy makers and etc. do for this initiative to be successful.]]> 2023-01-25 13:54:52 UTC https://padlet.com/andersa41/tpppxg9s8iakgkpk/wish/2456165720 Tiger Initiative History andersa41 https://padlet.com/andersa41/tpppxg9s8iakgkpk/wish/2456177706 Since we are talking about TIGER initiative this week I thought it is a good idea to find something that talks about what is it. I liked this website since it tells the history of how TIGER initiative came about and different phases of it. This website also has a quiz that can be completed.]]> 2023-01-25 14:03:26 UTC https://padlet.com/andersa41/tpppxg9s8iakgkpk/wish/2456177706 andersa41 https://padlet.com/andersa41/tpppxg9s8iakgkpk/wish/2464053125
This website explains well the importance of interoperability for nurses and patients. It also talks about the biggest challenges that nurses face with regards to data access and exchange across systems and recommendations to other health care systems on how to support their nurses through advancing interoperability. The care would be much better and faster if the data from prior visits or encounters with patient would be available together with the information about the patient themselves and their own health management. As an occasional patient myself I do get frustrated when I get asked the same questions over and over again and I answer "no" just to avoid giving explanation to those repeated questions.

As a patient comes in doctors and nurses have to go through different files and noted to see a full picture and patients have to re-introduce themselves to doctors. Creating a system that shares information between hospitals will allow doctors to know what tests to order improving healthcare quality for patients.]]> 2023-02-01 04:59:28 UTC https://padlet.com/andersa41/tpppxg9s8iakgkpk/wish/2464055774 andersa41 https://padlet.com/andersa41/tpppxg9s8iakgkpk/wish/2464057308 This article talks about the history and future of Data, Information, Knowledge and Wisdom Model. For example how Wisdom was added later on to Data, Information, and Knowledge data. Also I liked how it showed different systems that relate to different steps of this "pyramid".]]> 2023-02-01 05:01:40 UTC https://padlet.com/andersa41/tpppxg9s8iakgkpk/wish/2464057308 DIKW Framework explanation andersa41 https://padlet.com/andersa41/tpppxg9s8iakgkpk/wish/2464058221 As a visual learner I learn and retain information best from pictures/videos. I liked this video as it explains step by step what each of those steps are. It also presents it as a pyramid which explain well how each one of those steps depends on the step prior.]]> 2023-02-01 05:03:03 UTC https://padlet.com/andersa41/tpppxg9s8iakgkpk/wish/2464058221 How to improve patient outcomes by exhibiting meaningful use andersa41 https://padlet.com/andersa41/tpppxg9s8iakgkpk/wish/2482879780 Meaningful use and developing a custom EHR solution
I like this website because it not only talks about meaningful use but also talks about EHR software development. It is nice to look at it from a different side. It talks about certain needs healthcare providers might need while using EHR and how it can be accomplished.

How technology can be used to improve access to quality healthcare
I love finding TED talks about topics we study it's way more engaging. This talk talks about the meaningful use and EHRs and how it improves the quality of health care. Listening to it makes me realize how grateful we should be for the healthcare access we have. He also mentions how EHR can help deal with barriers faced as a healthcare providers. Great TED talk apart from the speaker making fun of Boris Johnson...

How ownership of our health records can save lives andersa41 https://padlet.com/andersa41/tpppxg9s8iakgkpk/wish/2482887442 This TED talk hits home. I am an immigrant myself and can understand his frustration. He talks about how his mom had to be diagnosed with asthma once again when coming to a new country which is very upsetting considering you have to watch your loved one suffering. He also talks about limits of EHRs such as they are nation based.]]> 2023-02-15 03:15:31 UTC https://padlet.com/andersa41/tpppxg9s8iakgkpk/wish/2482887442 Read "Fostering Research on the Economic and Social Impacts of Information Technology" at NAP.edu andersa41 https://padlet.com/andersa41/tpppxg9s8iakgkpk/wish/2498569171 This website explains in dept different kinds of research that can be done and how they can be used. It might be of help when reading the dataset and not understanding how it was done. It also talks about concepts described in asynchronous lecture like Metadata.]]> 2023-02-28 20:18:01 UTC https://padlet.com/andersa41/tpppxg9s8iakgkpk/wish/2498569171 Health Information Exchange: Making a Difference andersa41 https://padlet.com/andersa41/tpppxg9s8iakgkpk/wish/2498571596 This video is talking about how HIE made a difference in healthcare. For example, before HIE it took a very long time to track down things that healthcare providers really needed on a real-time basis. And now HIE changed things in a positive ways such as with flooding health records aren't lost but instead they are still stored electronically.]]> 2023-02-28 20:20:22 UTC https://padlet.com/andersa41/tpppxg9s8iakgkpk/wish/2498571596 Telemedicine and Telehealth andersa41 https://padlet.com/andersa41/tpppxg9s8iakgkpk/wish/2498573876 This week I learned that Telehealth has been booming due to the pandemic. It is important to know what is suitable for a telehealth appointment and what is not. The legal guidelines and technical requirements need to be investigated for successful visits, as well as good communication skills. This website provides resources on information on all of that.]]> 2023-02-28 20:22:34 UTC https://padlet.com/andersa41/tpppxg9s8iakgkpk/wish/2498573876 Making Telehealth Work For You andersa41 https://padlet.com/andersa41/tpppxg9s8iakgkpk/wish/2498575427 This video shows all the benefits for a patient using telehealth. Parents or caregivers of elderly patients are also able to use telehealth to alleviate the stress of coming to the office. Telehealth visits also may help patients who need an in-person appointment to actually get in and be seen. There are not enough doctors around these days so it is nice that telehealth is an option for our ever-growing healthcare industry.]]> 2023-02-28 20:24:02 UTC https://padlet.com/andersa41/tpppxg9s8iakgkpk/wish/2498575427 What is Gamification? A Few Ideas andersa41 https://padlet.com/andersa41/tpppxg9s8iakgkpk/wish/2498578225 This video lays out the concept of Gamification in a clear, easy-to-understand way. As a gamer myself I love games. Games combined with something useful to learn-even better. It can also be a good learning technique for people, especially kids (aka the teddy bear with diabetes and insulin game).]]> 2023-02-28 20:26:34 UTC https://padlet.com/andersa41/tpppxg9s8iakgkpk/wish/2498578225 TED Talk: The Power of Gamification in Education andersa41 https://padlet.com/andersa41/tpppxg9s8iakgkpk/wish/2498579435 Another TED Talk. This person talks about how games are important for learning especially at a young age. Learning with games was replaced with grades and tables and a specific system that makes kids bored and does not promote any learning.]]> 2023-02-28 20:27:37 UTC https://padlet.com/andersa41/tpppxg9s8iakgkpk/wish/2498579435 Understanding and fighting alert fatigue andersa41 https://padlet.com/andersa41/tpppxg9s8iakgkpk/wish/2527131490 This website provides a lot of information on alert fatigue and includes things that can help to reduce it. As a nurse on a floor with many TELE monitors, I can say I have witnessed alert fatigue when no one is looking at the monitor because it goes off so often.]]> 2023-03-22 13:09:44 UTC https://padlet.com/andersa41/tpppxg9s8iakgkpk/wish/2527131490 andersa41 https://padlet.com/andersa41/tpppxg9s8iakgkpk/wish/2527139529 This video explains how alert fatigue occurs. Some alerts we see on a day-to-day basis do not require any clinical intervention and having these unnecessary pop-ups makes it extremely difficult to slow down and read a pop-up you may actually be important. This video brings the dangers to light but shows it needs to be improved on a more technological basis and how it does not fall only on doctors and nurses to fix.]]> 2023-03-22 13:14:46 UTC https://padlet.com/andersa41/tpppxg9s8iakgkpk/wish/2527139529 Big data needs big privacy andersa41 https://padlet.com/andersa41/tpppxg9s8iakgkpk/wish/2527142579 One of the things he talks about in this TED talk is that usually, data in healthcare isn't easy to access because of privacy reasons. As said in the video, this can prevent researchers from accessing the data they need for cancer and others. Even though data needs to be encrypted and not shared, sometimes it might be a bad thing.]]> 2023-03-22 13:16:42 UTC https://padlet.com/andersa41/tpppxg9s8iakgkpk/wish/2527142579 Privacy Issues & Technology in Healthcare Organizations andersa41 https://padlet.com/andersa41/tpppxg9s8iakgkpk/wish/2527165011 This article does a great job of addressing privacy concerns within healthcare. For example, health privacy has become increasingly important due to the rapid rate of technology integration in healthcare. New technologies like mobile apps allow you to view test results or past medical history. Now we are able to track substantially larger amounts of information about a patient than ever before and put it in an easy-to-access place such as a cloud-based service.]]> 2023-03-22 13:30:24 UTC https://padlet.com/andersa41/tpppxg9s8iakgkpk/wish/2527165011 How your brain responds to stories and why they're crucial for leaders andersa41 https://padlet.com/andersa41/tpppxg9s8iakgkpk/wish/2527169864 This TED talk talks about how storytelling can affect people. Stories are a great way to connect to other people and for example, when stakeholders feel connected to you it might be easier to persuade them. Stories make our whole brain "light up" and experience things that we are told about. When we are at the movie theater we might experience elevated heart rates to the things we see on the screen. It is also a critical skill for a leader and the act of storytelling helps people to trust you more.]]> 2023-03-22 13:33:27 UTC https://padlet.com/andersa41/tpppxg9s8iakgkpk/wish/2527169864 9 Ways Businesses Are Channeling the Power of Data andersa41 https://padlet.com/andersa41/tpppxg9s8iakgkpk/wish/2527171998 One of the things I learned this week was how data can be used to convince people using numbers. Collecting meaningful data and sharing it with the right software can be very persuasive. This not only applies to healthcare but even businesses that sell cars.]]> 2023-03-22 13:34:40 UTC https://padlet.com/andersa41/tpppxg9s8iakgkpk/wish/2527171998 Engaging Students with Visual Stories: Using Infographics in Nursing Education andersa41 https://padlet.com/andersa41/tpppxg9s8iakgkpk/wish/2527174353 Infographics can help capture attention and make complex knowledge understandable, making it a useful teaching/learning strategy. Although infographics can be effective to engage students, they are infrequently used because of educator inexperience with this technology. This article gives a general overview of using infographics in nursing education and includes resources for developing and spreading infographics as well as step-by-step instructions based on evidence.]]> 2023-03-22 13:36:08 UTC https://padlet.com/andersa41/tpppxg9s8iakgkpk/wish/2527174353 7 Common Types of Infographics andersa41 https://padlet.com/andersa41/tpppxg9s8iakgkpk/wish/2527176545 This week we learned about visualizing data and infographics. Just like storytelling, infographics can be very useful. Also, there are multiple types of infographics that can be used that are described in this video. Using infographics can be a quick way of quickly understanding data. It is also a more interesting way to observe information.]]> 2023-03-22 13:37:22 UTC https://padlet.com/andersa41/tpppxg9s8iakgkpk/wish/2527176545 Ethics: Yes, Even When Nobody is Watching andersa41 https://padlet.com/andersa41/tpppxg9s8iakgkpk/wish/2527179583 Since we talked about ethics this week I thought this video is perfect for it. It explains what ethics means and how it can affect us and people close to us when "no one is watching". As a speaker gave an example of her kids seeing her behaviors and learning from her. Also, she spoke of where our personal ethics come from. I can see how it can relate to medical professionals since sometimes our job is dependent on ethics and sometimes "no one is watching".]]> 2023-03-22 13:39:02 UTC https://padlet.com/andersa41/tpppxg9s8iakgkpk/wish/2527179583 6 Ethical Issues in Healthcare in 2020 andersa41 https://padlet.com/andersa41/tpppxg9s8iakgkpk/wish/2527180978 This week we learned about legal and ethical issues in nursing. In healthcare, we have ethical parameters to follow and we must keep patients protected by keeping their health information private. It is critical to understand the standards of care, adhere to evidence-based recommendations, and prioritize the patient. This website talks about 6 ethical issues in healthcare that arose in recent times.]]> 2023-03-22 13:39:54 UTC https://padlet.com/andersa41/tpppxg9s8iakgkpk/wish/2527180978
