This study aimed to understand how a metaverse-based (virtual) workspace can be used to support the communication and collaboration in an academic health informatics lab.

Coronavirus disease (COVID)-related misinformation is prevalent online, including on social media. The purpose of this study was to explore factors associated with user engagement with COVID-related misinformation on the social media platform, TikTok. A sample of TikTok videos associated with the hashtag #coronavirus was downloaded on September 20, 2020. Misinformation was evaluated on a scale (low, medium, and high) using a codebook developed by experts in infectious diseases. Multivariable modeling [...]

As computational methods for detecting symptoms can help us better attend to patient suffering, the objectives of this study were to develop and evaluate the performance of a natural language processing keyword library for detecting symptom talk, and to describe symptom communication within our dataset to generate insights for future model building.

Tumor registries are a rich source of real-world data which can be used to test important hypotheses that inform clinical care. Exploratory data analysis at the level of individual subjects, when enhanced by interactive data visualizations, has the potential to provide novel insights and generate new hypothesis.

Situational awareness and anticipatory guidance for nurses receiving a patient after surgery are keys to patient safety. Little work has defined the role of artificial intelligence (AI) to support these functions during nursing handoff communication or patient assessment. We used interviews to better understand how AI could work in this context.

There is much interest in utilizing clinical data for developing prediction models for Alzheimer's disease (AD) risk, progression, and outcomes. Existing studies have mostly utilized curated research registries, image analysis, and structured electronic health record (EHR) data. However, much critical information resides in relatively inaccessible unstructured clinical notes within the EHR.

Inter- and intra-observer variability is a concern for medical school admissions. Artificial intelligence (AI) may present an opportunity to apply a fair standard to all applicants systematically and yet maintain sensitivity to nuances that have been a part of traditional screening methods.

To provide a method for evaluating the interoperability of Fast Healthcare Interoperability Resources (FHIR®) clients and servers supporting different FHIR resources, profiles, and versions, and to determine the feasibility of FHIR servers supporting multiple FHIR Implementation Guides (IGs).

To characterize COVID-19 patients in Indiana, United States, and to evaluate their demographics and comorbidities as risk factors to COVID-19 severity.

Since 2019, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services covers remote physiologic monitoring (RPM) for blood pressure (BP) per hypertension diagnosis and treatment guidelines. Here, we integrated Omron VitalSight RPM into the health system's electronic health record to transmit BP and pulse without manual entry, assessed feasibility, and used pragmatic prospective matched cohort studies to assess initial effects in (1) uncontrolled (last two office BP ≥140/90 mmHg) and (2) general [...]
