Wearables Have To Evolve To Remain Relevant12/2/2015
When wearables arrived on the stage a few years ago, they were mainly seen as devices peripheral to healthcare.

Others, however, predict wearables are merely a passing fad that will soon fade. What’s clear is that in order to make the potential for wearables a reality, the application of the technology will need to change.

Reducing Diagnostic Errors Through Clinical Decision Support5/20/2016
Physicians have long approached diagnoses as a mixture of art and science. CDS is a means to bolster the science portion by providing a broader clinical view of the patient, including clinical details from ambulatory EMRs and the systems of labs, radiology departments, and more combined with evidence-based best practices. CDS systems operate mainly in the background of an EMR, monitoring clinical documentation as it is being entered, and issue alerts when information, often not available at the point of care, suggests a different course of action. In certain instances, these alerts can mean the difference between a timely and accurate diagnosis and a potentially dangerous diagnostic error.
