Modeling Precision Feedback Knowledge for Healthcare Professional Learning and Quality Improvement.

AMIA ... Annual Symposium proceedings. AMIA Symposium
Healthcare providers learn continuously, but better support for provider learning is needed as new biomedical knowledge is produced at an increasing rate alongside widespread use of EHR data for clinical performance measurement. Precision feedback is...

What Complexity Science Predicts About the Potential of Artificial Intelligence/Machine Learning to Improve Primary Care.

Journal of the American Board of Family Medicine : JABFM
Primary care physicians are likely both excited and apprehensive at the prospects for artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML). Complexity science may provide insight into which AI/ML applications will most likely affect primary care in...

Comparison of Robotic and Laparoscopic Colectomies Using the 2019 ACS NSQIP Database.

Southern medical journal
OBJECTIVES: Robot-assisted laparoscopic surgeries (RLSs) have become increasingly common in the past decade alongside conventional laparoscopic surgeries (CLSs). In general, RLSs have been reported to be superior to CLSs; therefore, we compared both ...

Clinical Informatics and Quality Improvement in the Pediatric Intensive Care Unit.

Pediatric clinics of North America
Clinical informatics can support quality improvement and patient safety in the pediatric intensive care unit (PICU) in several ways including data extraction, analysis, and decision support enabled by electronic health records (EHRs), and databases a...

Understanding challenges of using routinely collected health data to address clinical care gaps: a case study in Alberta, Canada.

BMJ open quality
High-quality data are fundamental to healthcare research, future applications of artificial intelligence and advancing healthcare delivery and outcomes through a learning health system. Although routinely collected administrative health and electroni...

Clinical decision support for severe trauma patients: Machine learning based definition of a bundle of care for hemorrhagic shock and traumatic brain injury.

The journal of trauma and acute care surgery
BACKGROUND: Deviation from guidelines is frequent in emergency situations, and this may lead to increased mortality. Probably because of time constraints, 55% is the greatest reported guidelines compliance rate in severe trauma patients. This study a...

Are rib fractures stable? An analysis of progressive rib fracture offset in the acute trauma setting.

The journal of trauma and acute care surgery
BACKGROUND: Rib fractures serve as both a marker of injury severity and a guide for clinical decision making for trauma patients. Although recent studies have suggested that rib fractures are dynamic, the degree of progressive offset remains unknown....
