Leveraging device data to enable better patient care: UNC Health's approach

Monday, September 30th, 2024 | 12:00 PM - 1:00 PM CT

Medical devices hold vast amounts of data, and forward-thinking health systems are starting to put it to use to support proactive clinical decision making.

Once the data is acquired, normalized and analyzed appropriately, clinicians can use it to answer critical questions surrounding a patient's condition, ultimately improving care delivery.
Join David McSwain, MD, Chief Medical Informatics Officer at UNC Health System, and Rachini Moosavi, Chief Analytics Officer, as they share how to actually leverage this data to support and enhance patient care.

Key learning points:

Understand the need for a hospitalwide, device-agnostic approach to integrate bedside medical devices for clinical documentation automation
How data can be aggregated and contextualized to optimize real-time decision making and foster new clinical surveillance workflows
Learn about data utilization and continuity for patient throughput and transitions of care across settings
