Advance clinical processes
GIS is for
Analyze relationships among: Environmental factors Socioeconomic factors Disease outcomes
Ultimately, it is hoped that the meaningful use compliance will result in:
Better clinical outcomes Improved population health outcomes Increased transparency and efficiency Empowered individuals More robust research data on health systems
Immunization Information Systems (IIS)
Confidential, computerized, and population-based Collect and merge vaccination data Data from vaccination providers Point of care: immunization history for vaccine schedule
Procedural Knowledge
Conventional computer programs Complex knowledge but will not change a lot Temporal logic to determine when a dose is due: dates, minimum ages, and several wait-intervals
2011-2012 Stage 1
Data capture and sharing
Example of community level data
Data on lead levels in the soil at various sites within a community
Tabular Knowledge
Forecasting params in tables Minimum acceptable age Minimum recommended age Minimum wait intervals from previous dose
Chronic Exposure Models use what kind of models?
General Circulation Models
Rule-Based Knowledge
IfThen for clinical logic When a dose should be given Which tabular params applies Which vaccine brand or preparation should be recommended
Meaningful Use Defined Meaningful use is using certified electronic health record (EHR) technology to:
Improve quality, safety, efficiency, and reduce health disparities Engage patients and family Improve care coordination, and population and public health Maintain privacy and security of patient health information
2016 Stage 3
Improved outcomes
Acute Exposure Models use what kind of techniques?
Lagrangian estimation techniques
Databases:
MS Access, Postgres SQL, TOXLINE,
Computerized information systems for environmental health benefit
Practitioners of environmental health Clinical toxicologists
Basis for Comparison Primary Data Secondary Data Process
Primary Very involved Secondary Quick and easy
Basis for Comparison Primary Data Secondary Data Meaning
Primary data refers to the first hand data gathered by the researcher himself. Secondary data means data collected by someone else earlier.
Basis for Comparison Primary Data Secondary Data Specific
Primary: Always specific to the researcher's needs. Secondary: May or may not be specific to the researcher's need.
Basis for Comparison Primary Data Secondary Data Available in
Primary: Crude form Secondary: Refined form
Basis for Comparison Primary Data Secondary Data Cost effectiveness
Primary: Expensive Secondary: Economical
Basis for Comparison Primary Data Secondary Data Accuracy and Reliability
Primary: More Secondary: Relatively less
Basis for Comparison Primary Data Secondary Data Source
Primary: Surveys, observations, experiments, questionnaire, personal interview, etc. Secondary: Government publications, websites, books, journal articles, internal records etc.
Basis for Comparison Primary Data Secondary Data Collection time
Primary:Long Secondary: Short
Basis for Comparison Primary Data Secondary Data When
Real time data Past data
vital statistics have
Several datasets Each set has multiple fields NVSS standardized core data elements All states use ICD10 for CoD
Community-level data:
ambient conditions that may influence health
Secondary Data is the readily available form of data collected from various sources like
censuses, government publications, internal records of the organization, reports, books, journal articles, websites and so on.
General circulation models can predict
climate changes
Secondary data implies second-hand information which is already
collected and recorded by any person other than the user for a purpose, not relating to the current research problem.
Acute Exposure Models: Predict dispersion of particles of sizes with
defined distributions, based on their original states of motion, size, and other parameters
Primary data is data originated for the first time by the researcher through
direct efforts and experience, specifically for the purpose of addressing his research problem. Also known as the first hand or raw data.
Secondary data offer several advantages as it is
easily available, saves time and cost of the researcher.
Modeling in Toxicology and Environmental Health Use mathematical
exposure models
whats the difference between global health and international health
global is equity for all and international is equity for another poor country.
example of primary health data
individual patient record entered into hospital EHR
Aggregate data :
information that has already been processed.
global health encourages what kind of work?
multidisciplinary work
public health determine
necessary processes and mechanisms for: communication, intervention, dissemination of information amongst PH partners
Modeling in Toxicology and Environmental Health Use knowledge about situations that are similar but
not identical to those about which we know
international health encourages what kind of work?
not multidisciplinary
HPAC can predict the concentrations of an agent within relevant areas
of 3-dimensional space as a function of time
LHD stands for
public health department
Primary data collection is quite expensive, as the research is conducted by the organization or agency itself, which requires
resources like investment and manpower.
If: Hib.prior = 1 and not Hib_inactive and Hib1_age_in_months ≥ 12 and Hib2_final_parameters_met then: due.Hib2_final If: Hib.prior = 1 and not Hib_inactive and Hib1_age_in_months < 12 and Hib2_final_parameters_met then: due.Hib2 If: Hib.prior = 1 and not Hib_inactive and Hib1_age_in_months ≥ 12 and not Hib2_final_parameters_met then: next.Hib2_final If: Hib.prior = 1 and not Hib_inactive and Hib1_age_in_months < 12 and not Hib2_final_parameters_met then: next.Hib2
rule based knowledge
Secondary data objective and the method adopted for acquiring data may not be
suitable to the current situation.
Primary data can be collected through various methods like
surveys, observations, physical testing, mailed questionnaires, questionnaire filled and sent by enumerators, personal interviews, telephonic interviews, focus groups, case studies, etc.
data types
text, numeric, date/time
HPAC can model with
typical", current, or near-term weather
In primary data collection The data collection is
under direct control and supervision of the investigator.
Seecondary Data has some disadvantages associated with this, as the data is gathered for the purposes other than the problem in mind, so the
usefulness of the data may be limited in a number of ways like relevance and accuracy.
