UNSTRUCTURED Technology is advancing at extraordinary rates with novel data being generated which could potentially revolutionary different therapeutic areas of medicine. However, adoption is medicine is hampered by a lack of trust, particularly for biometric monitoring technologies (BioMeTs) where a key question facing frontline healthcare professionals is are BioMeTs fit for purpose? Here, we discuss pragmatic barriers and guidance regarding BioMeTs, cumulating in a proposed guidance framework to better inform their development and deployment in digital medicine. Furthermore, the framework proposes a process to establish an audit trail of BioMeTs (hardware and algorithms), to instil trust amongst multidisciplinary users.

Abstract Challenges in the design of efficient EOR field pilots have been discussed and documented in the industry, particularly when it comes to optimization of monitoring plans for technical and economical perspectives. This paper explores the benefits of pilot planning where the monitoring/control strategies are included in the early stages of the design to reduce risk of measurements ambiguity and ensure good quality pilot results evaluation. It addresses the use of new and existing technology in monitoring by highlighting the advantages and challenges of each alternative including potential pairing of complementary options to achieve the pilot objectives including illustration of the use of continuous and sporadic measurements on the evaluation. The proposed approach starts with a review of reservoir performance, heterogeneity and pilot objectives to ascertain the plausible monitoring technologies/strategies to aid during the pilot de-risking, followed by the identification of adequate novel and mature monitoring options, which are specific to EOR type and measurement nature (permanent, time lapse, etc.). Advantages of incorporating the monitoring strategy as integral part of the pilot design, as well as evaluation of the effectiveness/viability in the presence of uncertainty of the selected monitoring alternatives are discussed providing a reference of suitable/plausible EOR specific technologies. The paper illustrates the importance of selecting monitoring alternatives that feed off each other and the importance of using fit-for-purpose evaluation algorithms and a digitally enabled, structured approach to analyze and democratize pilot results and enable actionable decisions in operations.

This article explores the South African government’s national school workbook intervention aimed at addressing poor learner performance in the context of teacher under-preparedness and curriculum reform. It shows how the workbooks use a distance education approach to provide pedagogical and content support for teachers, albeit in the context of classroom teaching, to compensate for teachers’ pedagogical challenges. This article uses a mixed methods research approach to explore how teachers, learners and parents used the workbooks and shows that while the distance educational design scaffolded teaching, additional support is necessary to enable the intervention to be more impactful.
