Beware the ‘pod slurping’ employee
I wrote about“pod slurping” a few weeks ago but cNet News.com did a better job.
CIOs of hospitals and healthcare IT managers need to pay attention to what they said:
A U.S. security expert who devised an application that can fill an iPod with business-critical data in a matter of minutes is urging companies to address the very real threat of data theft.
Abe Usher, a 10-year veteran of the security industry, created an application that runs on an iPod and can search corporate networks for files likely to contain business-critical data.

On RSS Readers, Divorce and Marriage
In just a few days, Google Reader will be history. I've used it to create over 18,000 Tweets, so yes, I will miss Google Reader. The end has pushed me into a divorce (or maybe it's just a separation?!) — from Google. I describe my Google divorce as kind of like when a married couple with children decide to separate … they still have to see their exes for the sake of the kids (and I still have my blogs with Google's Blogger, for now anyway), and it may be a cordial, but not quite blissful separation, but is still necessary.A number of my fellow diabetes blogging peers have already migrated from Google'...

TechTool review of WIkEM by Christopher Kim on iOS and Android
Website: – iTunes - Android - Website
WikEM is a database of Emergency Medicine information. It is a medical wiki which means that users can edit and add information themselves (although not directly through the app). Wikis are essentially crowd-sourced information (Wikipedia being the most famous example). WikEM started as junior doctors putting together a list of revision notes and expanded from there. The mobile apps allow users to access the online content in a mobile-friendly version.
Design and User Interface
It looks like a wiki. A...

TechTool review of Figure1 by Movable Science on iOS
Website: – iTunes - Website
Figure1 is really what we have all been talking about in the FOAM world for some time. It’s a way of storing patient photos on your phone, taking consent and sharing them with others for educational purposes.
It’s only out in the US at the moment, but I’ve had a sneak preview to see if it’s up to expectations
Design and User Interface
The design is ok, but could use some work to improve it. The overall style and colour scheme looks great, but the photo feed doesn’t. All you see is giant photos in a long list ...

TechTool review Epocrates Bugs + Drugs by Epocrates on iOS
Website: – iTunes - Website
Bugs + Drugs uses cloud-based information on bugs and their sensitivities. Epocrates has joined up with athenahealth to create this app. athenahealth provides data from its electronic health records (it has 15 million patients) and that information is geo-analysed and presented to you by Epocrates.
Essentially you can view geographically-targeted information about the bugs and sensitivities that are prevalent.

My digital filing cabinet – Evernote
Evernote is a piece of software that is becoming an increasingly indispensable part of my life. I don’t really use it for writing or taking notes, but as a searchable repository of just about any piece of information I may need access to in the future. The trick is that I am storing it all in one application, so I will never need to wonder where I have saved something on the computer, or where I have stashed a bit of paper – If it’s worth saving, it’s in Evernote!
Some of the things I use it for are
saving all bills, statements, letters or any other paper pieces of information I want to retain. I ...

Apple ' s iPhone and Watch Function as Medical Research Tools
As someone who is currently participating in an Apple/University of Michigan research study, I have a front row seat to a project that combines an iPhone, Apple Watch, and a blood pressure monitor to gather data. I have referred to this home-based technology as awearable health ecosystem (WHE) (see:The Evolution of"Wearable Health Ecosystems" and Associated Partnerships). A recent article in the NYT delved into the emerging Apple role in medical research (see:Apple ’s Reach Reshapes Medical Research).

Johns Hopkins: Thanks to EHRs, time with patients seems “squeezed out” of medical training, investigator says
Question: Who would have thought it? That there is yet another potentially deadly unintended consequence of bad health IT and health IT hyper-enthusiasm?Suggested answer: anyone who truly understands the issues at the intersection of medicine, information science, information technology, and Social Informatics - which probably excludes 95% of the health IT "experts", pundits and opportunists.Which only goes to show how dense such people can be - as the medical trainees of today will be treating them, their families, and their children in the future:Johns Hopkins MedicineRelease Date: 04/23/2013 Time w...
