Translate a Document Instantly with Lexmark Translation Assistant
One of the coolest things about my work here at Healthcare IT Today is when I see something that almost feels magical.  In most cases, that’s when multiple technologies are brought together in a way that the solution is just incredible.  This is how I felt when I saw the new Translation Assistant product from Lexmark. Watch the full demo video with Seth Johnson, Industry Director for Healthcare at Lexmark, below to see the solution in action.  However, the solution is really quite simple.  You can scan in any document to the Lexmark scanner and it will print out (or email) a translated version of the document ne...

These Three Things Can Bring EHRs to the Next Level
The following is a guest article by Dr. Mark Pratt, Chief Medical Officer at Altera Digital Health The patient quietly sits while her physician delves into the data stored in her electronic health record, combing through different screens for specific information. It takes longer than both expect, precious minutes that diminish the available time for an actual conversation about the patient’s health status and the physician’s recommendations. This familiar scene exemplifies the unnecessary burdens traditional EHRs have placed on providers, patients, and the overall healthcare system. As a former ER physician and curren...

A Glimpse at the Future of Preventative Treatment for Aging
At some point, the various measures of biological age currently under development and assessment will coalesce into some form of consensus measurement, largely agreed upon, the objections to its use minimal and circumstantial. At that point, a great deal of effort will go into assessing established and new interventions that might decrease or slow the progression of that consensus measure of biological age. It will likely take some decades for the back and forth of real time validation of interventions to treat aging to progress thereafter, but things will certainly become a great deal more heated once the research communi...

Juggling medicine and motherhood: a doctor ’ s journey
When my children were in preschool, parents often commented at school events that they did not know I worked or was a physician. I never knew how to handle that double-edged sword. Ostensibly a compliment, their surprise at a working parent’s presence at school felt like an insult; their shock over my medical life cast Read more… Juggling medicine and motherhood: a doctor’s journey originally appeared in KevinMD.com.

Mitochondrial Transplantation as a Treatment for Kidney Damage
It is interesting see an increased focus on assessing the ability of mitochondrial transplantation to be useful in a variety of circumstances, not just as a treatment to reduce the mitochondrial dysfunction that occurs with aging. The limiting factor in bringing mitochondrial transplantation to the clinic is chiefly the speed at which the research and development communities can achieve the logistical advances needed to reliably produce enough mitochondria to deliver to an entire organ (at first), and the whole body (later). It is likely the case that mitochondria will have to be patient-matched by haplotype of mitochondri...

How to Talk to a Doc
BY KIM BELLARD For better and for worse, our healthcare system is built around physicians. For the most part, they’re the ones we rely on for diagnoses, for prescribing medications, and for delivering care.  And, often, simply for being a comfort.   Unfortunately, in 2023, they’re still “only” human, and they’re not perfect. Despite best intentions, they sometimes miss things, make mistakes, or order ineffective or outdated care. The order of magnitude for these mistakes is not clear; one recent study estimated 800,000 Americans suffering permanent disability or death annually.  Whatever the real...

Creating an inclusive medical culture
“We want you all to do better,” said the presenter to the medical students, as if only the next generation can enact change … the next time around. This session is one of many aimed at making the culture of medicine more inclusive and collaborative—less hierarchical and less patriarchal. Medicine has a longstanding history of Read more… Creating an inclusive medical culture originally appeared in KevinMD.com.

Why Are So Many Healthcare Companies Still Being Breached?
The following is a guest article by Terry Ray, SVP, Data Security GTM, and Field CTO at Imperva Despite satisfying regulatory requirements, 93% of healthcare organizations have experienced a data breach within the past three years and 57% have been breached more than five times over that span. The alarming frequency and severity of these breaches leave many wondering why. The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) is one of the most well-known –  though broadly misunderstood – data protection regulations, and it includes stiff penalties for noncompliance. With such stringent protections in place, ...

OMI Pocket Guide
  📕OMI Pocket Guide TheOMI Pocket Guide (https://omiguide.org) is a user-friendly online resource designed to help healthcare professionals learn how to recognize subtle signs of acute coronary occlusion on the ECG which represent occlusion myocardial infarctions (OMI). Learning to recognize OMIs is an important clinical skill because it helps identify the subpopulation of " NSTEMIs " who are likely to be found with total thrombotic occlusion at the time of cardiac catherization.Although there are more criteria to consider when looking for OMIs compared to STEMIs, anyone can learn them, and this guid...

Fatty Acid Metabolism as a Commonality in Different Approaches to Slowing Aging
In this study, we report systemic changes in the molecular regulation of biological processes under multiple lifespan-extending interventions, by jointly leveraging systems-level analyses on two mouse liver proteomic datasets, which were generated in the NIA Longevity Consortium, and a previously published mouse liver transcriptomic dataset. Differential Rank Conservation (DIRAC) analyses of mouse liver proteomics and transcriptomics data show that mechanistically distinct lifespan-extending interventions (acarbose, 17α-estradiol, rapamycin, and calorie restriction) generally tighten the regulation of biological modules. ...

A Look at Hyland ’ s Approach to Healthcare RPA
One of the hottest topics in healthcare right now is RPA (Robotic Process Automation).  We’re seeing it pop up everywhere and for good reason.  Good RPA can automate the mundane tasks that are wasting your staff’s time.  Plus, done right it can improve the quality of the output as well. At the HIMSS conference, Hyland was doing demos of their RPA Solution and we wanted to learn more.  In the video below, you’ll learn more from Ashley Ljubi, Sales Solution Engineer at Hyland, about healthcare RPA.  Ljubi shares what RPA is and how it can be used to emulate a person.  If a person can click it, RPA ca...
