  1. Topics in BMI: Course Objectives Prof. Steven A. Demurjian, Sr. Computer Science & Engineering Department The University of Connecticut 371 Fairfield Road, Box U-255 Storrs, CT 06269-2155 steve@engr.uconn.edu http://www.engr.uconn.edu/~steve (860) 486 - 4818

  2. What is Informatics? • Informatics is: • Management and Processing of Data • From Multiple Sources/Contexts • Involves Classification (Ontologies), Collection, Storage, Analysis, Dissemination • Informatics is Multi-Disciplinary • Computing (Model, Store, Process Information) • Social Science (User Interactions, HCI) • Statistics (Analysis) • Informatics Can Apply to Multiple Domains: • Business, Biology, Fine Arts, Humanities • Pharmacology, Nursing, Medicine, etc.

  3. What is Informatics? Informatics People Information Technology Adapted from Shortcliff textbook • Heterogeneous Field – Interaction between People, Information and Technology • Computer Science and Engineering • Social Science (Human Computer Interface) • Information Science (Data Storage, Retrieval and Mining)

  4. What is Biomedical Informatics (BMI)? • BMI is Information and its Usage Associated with the Research and Practice of Medicine Including: • Clinical Informatics for Patient Care • Medical Record + Personal Health Record • Bioinformatics for Research/Biology to Bedside • From Genomics To Proteomics • Public Health Informatics (State and Federal) • Tracking Trends in Public Sector • Clinical Research Informatics • Deidentified Repositories and Databases • Facilitate Epidemiological Research and Ongong Clinical Studies (Drug Trails, Data Analysis, etc.)

  5. What are Key BMI Focal Areas? • T1 Research • Transition Bench Results into  Clinical Research • Clinical Research • Applying Clinical Research Results via Trials with Patients on Medication, Devices, Treatment Plans • T2 Research • Translating “Successful” Clinical Trials into Practice and the Community • Clinical Practice • Tracking all of the Information Associated with a Patient and his/her Care • Integrated and Inter-Disciplinary Information Spectrum

  6. Where/How is BMI Utilized? T1 Research (Bench  Clinical) • Transfer of Knowledge from Laboratory or Bench to Clinical Trials • Move Genomic Research from Bench (Lab) to Clinical Trial (or Genetic/Test Intervention) • Transfer in Lab/Bench Research to Pre-Clinical and Early Clinical Human Subject Research • Exs: • New Genetic Test for Autism • Tested on Samples from DNA Repository • Transition to Actual Patient Population • Growing new Jaw Bone in Mice for Dental Implants – Transition to Human Tissue

  7. Where/How is BMI Utilized? Clinical Research (Trials) • Wide Range of Implications from Medical Treatment to Medication Regime • Multi-Phased Process for Clinical Trials: • Phase I: First Stage – 20-80 Healthy Patients • Phase II: Second Stage – 20-300 Patients • IIA – Dosing – How Much of Drug Should be Used • IIB – Efficacy – How Well Does Drug Work • Randomized Clinical Trials (Not all Get Drug) • Phase III: Multi-Center Trials – 300-3000 • Longer Term, Data Collected, Multiple Locations • Preparation of Data for Regulatory Approval (FDA) • Phase IV: Ongoing Monitoring of Drug After Approval

  8. Where/How is BMI Utilized? Clinical Research (Trials) • Differing Perspectives for Carrying out Research: • Patients: Drug, Treatment Regime, or Device • Increased Dose of Existing Drug (Safety/Effective) • Applying Drug to New Disease • Compare Two or more Treatments • Epidemiological • Study Existing Data for Trend • Against Existing Data Repositories • Patients with CHF and Diabetes Taking Statins • Tracking Communicable Disease/Outbreaks • Phases I, II, III, and IV Apply • Bad Results in IV – Pull Drug (Vioxx)

  9. Where/How is BMI Utilized? T2 Research (Clinical Research Practice/Community) • Practice-Oriented Translation Research • Results: Clinical Trails  Clinical Practice • Strategies for Establishing/Implementing New Technologies • Improvements in Practice • New Evidence-Based Guidelines • New Care Models • Phase III Success Translated to Health Providers • Examples • Statin Drugs (Lipitor) and Exercise • New Treatment Regime for Chronic Disease

  10. Where/How is BMI Utilized? Clinical Practice • Dealing with Patients – Direct Medical Care • Hospital or Clinic • Physician’s Office • Testing Facility • Insurance/Reimbursement • Tracking All Data Associated with Patients • Medical Record • Medical Tests (Lab, Diagnostic, Scans, etc.) • Prescriptions • Stringent Data Protection (HIPAA) • Distributed Repositories, Inability to Access Data in Emergent Situations, Competition, etc.

  11. What is Medical Informatics? • Clinical Informatics, Pharmacy Informatics • Public Health Informatics • Consumer Health Informatics • Nursing Informatics • Systems and People Issues • Intended to Improve Clinical outcomes, Satisfaction and Efficiency • Workflow Changes, Business Implications, Implementation, etc… • Patient Centered – Personal Health Record and Medical Home • Care Centered – Pay for Performance, Improving Treatment Compliance

  12. What is Bionformatics? • Focused on Research Tools for T1: • Genomic and Proteomic Tools, Evaluation Methods, Computing And Database Needs • Information Retrieval and Manipulation of Large Distributed (caBIG) Data Sets (cabig.cancer.gov/index.asp) • Often Requires Grid Computing • Includes Cancer and Immunology Research • Increasing Need to Tie These Separate Types of Systems Together = Personalized Medicine • Biology and the Bedside (www.i2b2.org)

  13. Where is Data/How is it Used? • Medical And Administrative Data Found in Clinical Information Systems (CIS) Such As: • Hospital Info. Systems Electronic Medical Records • Personal Health Records such as Google Health and Microsoft Healthvault • Pharmacy, Nursing, Picture Archiving Systems • Complex Data Storage and Retrieval – Many Different Systems • T1 Research Increasingly Reliant on CIS • T2 Research is Reliant on: • End Systems for Embedding EBM (Evidence-Based Medicine) Guidelines • Measuring Outcomes, Looking at Policy

  14. What are Major Informatics Challenges? • Shortage of Trained People Nationally • Slows adoption of Health Information Technology • Results in Poor Planning and Coordination, Duplication of Efforts and Incomplete Evaluation • What are Critical Needs? • Dually Trained Clinicians or Researchers in Leadership of some Initiatives • Connect all folks with Informatics Roles across Institutions to Improve Efficiency • Multi-Disciplinary: CSE, Statistics, Biology, Medicine, Nursing, Pharmacy, etc. • Emerging Standards for Information Modeling and Exchange (www.hl7.org) based on XML
