These technologies are especially critical for those aiming to achieve Sustainable Health Communities, where all parties are connected, intelligent and aligned. While hospitals and health networks are already familiar with electronic medical records (EMRs) and health information exchanges (HIEs), they will need to become comfortable with a group of new solutions — some that the payer community has relied on for years and others that will put the data from EMRs and HIEs to the test.

Patient And Pharmacists communication. Having long been a fan of early, and dumb, comedies, I am quite familiar with the “dope slap.”

Patient And Pharmacists communication

It was perfected by Moe Howard but employed by many before and since. A Google-searched definition describes a dope slap as the physical equivalent of "Whatta you, a moron?! " Its purpose is to slap some sense into a person quickly (or if your technique is on par with Moe’s, several people at once) who can obviously use an instant jolt of common sense. While I haven’t thought about the dope slap in quite some time, it came to mind recently when looking at some common “what were you thinking?”

Practices in health care. Despite the completely foreign setting, most memorable was the fact that such an extended conversation took place. Revelation.

But new electronic medical links with her community health center reassured doctors that her mysterious vomiting was not an acute issue.

Ten-Minute Blood Test

But current methods for testing these proteins are too expensive and require too much blood to be performed regularly. A microfluidic chip in clinical trials does on a single chip in 10 minutes what normally takes multiple technicians hours to do–and with just a single drop of blood. Researchers hope to make bedside diagnostics based on blood proteins a reality by bringing down the cost of such tests by at least an order of magnitude. The diagnostic chip is being developed by Caltech chemistry professor James Heath and by Leroy Hood, the president and founder of the Institute for Systems Biology, in Seattle.

Social network for Patients/ IBM

This week the company revamped its "patient portal. " Dubbed the IBM Patient Empowerment System, it now acts like a social network for participating patients. Especially intriguing here is the interactive nature of the Patient Empowerment System--if a person has an urgent question about the interaction of two drugs, the system will cross check his or her medical records and background and warn yes or no to taking a particular medicine. It also allows patients to log in, update their profiles with prescription information, symptom complaints, blood pressure readings, and to find other patients struggling with similar illnesses or diseases. A patient can send a message to other patients and ask questions about certain medications or offer advice from personal experience.

The IBM system is different for its focus on institutional affiliations--hospitals sign up and integrate the portal into their office procedures. Patients Like You/ Social network.
