This is how We Think

Hello, it has been a while for me to post here. Here I am.

I first watched Professor Richard Miller’s talk ” This is How We Dream” back 2009. It is still relevant for today’s world and healthcare industry. Please enjoy .

What healthcare can learn from nuclear power industry?

Just came back from 2014 Symposium on Human Factors and Ergonomics in Health Care in Chicago. I attend a session presented by experts from AAMI, the Association for the Advancement of Medical Instrumentation  titled Safety and Risk in Health Care and Nuclear Power: Learning From Each Other .     By learning from nuclear power industry,  healthcare industry can use technology effectively and efficiently with systems engineering, human factor approaches. The re-engineered  new healthcare delivery system should integrate people, technology, process, organization and external environment. The cross industry collaboration is critical to transform the healthcare delivery.  Simulation will play more important roles on training, assessment, usability testing and process redesign.

“In Praise of Fresh Air” and Medical Simulation 2.0

Finished the #IMSH2012  this Wednesday Feb 1. On my way home, ads inside newspaper did got my attention and inspiration.  That was the new brand and logo promotion from J.C. Penney by Ron Johnson (previous Apple executive) (Disclosure,  I don’t have  personal financial conflict of interest).  The key message is ” In praise of fresh air”.  The IMSH2012 draw near 3000 people around the world.   Beyond the fresh air we had at San Diego, I had chance to talk old and new friends.  Their insights made me thinking: What is the next 10 years for medical simulation community?

Simulation Game for Transfusion Medicine: Transformative Fusion of Innovative Blood Management Technologies

Dr.Mark Ereth, Professor of Anesthesiology introduced new iPad application TransFuse in today’s Mayo Clinic’s third annual Social Media Summit. It is created in collaboration with the Center of Innovation at Mayo Clinic to educate and challenge clinicians as to the best blood transfusion threshold practices.
