health No Comments »

The Critical Role of Open Source and Open Standards on the Road to Secure and Robust Healthcare

About this Event
FIWARE is known for its ability and speed to address urgent challenges and the needs of society, companies, and public administrations. The need for ready-to-use solutions, based on Open Source and open standards principles – to help automate data sharing – continues to grow rapidly. This has, once again, become evident during the current COVID-19 pandemic.

More and more sharing tools are available, driven by Open Source principles, allowing relevant parties to access existing solutions as well as build on top of widely available ‘off the shelf’ solutions. Moreover, present circumstances are also a test case for data safety and cybersecurity, especially when handling health and personal data.

To showcase the ways in which the FIWARE Community members are on the frontline of helping the health sector to become more secure and robust, no least in times of a global pandemic, this free virtual experience brings together private and public businesses and developers to discuss how Open Source technology is contributing to addressing urgent challenges and the needs of society and the world as a whole.

The FIWARE Healthcare DAY will feature outstanding keynote and specialist speeches from experts in the field, as well as real-life use cases coming from across the world highlighting how health authorities and other relevant parties can leverage Open Source technologies to better track patients, aid to contain viruses and build a robust healthcare system.

Robust Healthcare Process Improvements – Dr. Mark Chassin

Dr. Mark Chassin, president of the Joint Commission, discussed his organization’s new “robust process improvement” (RPI) tools. Though the Joint Commission will not require healthcare organizations to adopt the tools, “we expect that when they see how effective they are they will want to use them,” Chassin said. The tools are created by measuring the magnitude of a healthcare organization’s problem and examining why the process is failing; then the Joint Commission translates those learnings into actionable interventions that can be applied to other medical organizations as well.

The Commission’s new “Center for Transforming Healthcare” will house the effort, which, Chassin said, responds directly to what its customers have demanded: not only identification of problems, but the tools to address them.

Once thought as a futuristic threat to humankind, artificial intelligence is now a part of everyday life. In healthcare, AI is changing the game with its applications in decision support, image analysis, and patient triage. Today, artificial intelligence is helping physicians make smarter decisions at the point of care, taking the hassle and uncertainty out of viewing patient scans, and cutting down on physician burnout. With AI’s continued integration into healthcare, caring for patients has become a matter of working smarter, not harder.
