Mobile Information and Coordination for Health Care

This study explores the opportunities for error and the importance of clinical alerting in patient data coordination and decision making. The study examines the information needs of healthcare professionals and proposes solutions such as mobile access to patient data, coordination of care through virtual whiteboards, event monitoring for interactions and alerts, and health information resources through infobuttons.

  5. Study of Information Needs - Methods • Surveys • Focus groups • Observational studies • Nurses and physicians studied

  6. Study of Information Needs - Results • Mobile access to patient data • Coordination of care • Interactions and alerts • Health information resources

  7. Study of Information Needs - Solutions • Mobile access to patient data: PatCIS • Coordination of care: Virtual Whiteboard • Interactions and alerts: Event Monitoring • Health information resources: Infobuttons • Mobile access to patient data • Coordination of care • Interactions and alerts • Health information resources

  8. Mobile Access to Patient Data: PatCIS • WebCIS: desktop-based access to patient data • Web browser on phone/Palm Pilot combination • Different screen layout • Slower access • New security problems

  9. PatCIS Architecture

  10. Coordination of Care: Virtual Whiteboard • Database of users and schedules • Clinicians’ patient lists in WebCIS • Web server application manages messages among team members

  11. Interactions and Alerts: Event Monitoring • Rule-based monitoring system • Waits for trigger events • Evaluates logic to determine warnings • Medical Logic Modules (Arden Syntax) • Web-based, insitution independence: Vigilens • “Push” is possible with Palm Phones • Not yet developed for integrated with PalmCIS

  12. Health Information Resources: Infobuttons • Links between clinical data and on-line resources • PubMed searches • Microbiology results and Medline • Culture sensitivity tests and Micromedex

  13. Decision Making Decision Making Decision Making Wireless Palm-based Error Reduction PatCIS Patient Data Vigilens Clinical Alerting Infobuttons Health Information Virtual Whiteboard Coordination Coordination

  14. Discussion • Poor information access uninformed decisions • Ineffective communication poor care coordination • Wireless, hand-held technology can help • Technical problems solved • Security problems solved • Evaluation is the next step

  15. Conclusion Wireless hand-held communication and access to information work. But do they work well?
