Comprehensive Characterization

The comprehensive characterization of clinical and severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) testing data for patients with repeatedly positive SARS-CoV-2 tests can help prioritize suspected cases of reinfection for investigation in the absence of sequencing data and for continued surveillance of the potential long-term health consequences of SARS-CoV-2 infection.

OBJECTIVE: To challenge the standard of practice by evaluating the identification of medication discrepancies found depending on type of access to an electronic health record (EHR). In other words, is there a difference in the number of discrepancies between a pharmacist with only access to the postacute long-term care (PALTC) EHR (ie, single-access pharmacist [SAP]) compared with a pharmacist with access to both the PALTC and hospital EHRs (ie, dual-access pharmacist DAP) In October 2018, the Improving Medicare PostAcute Care Transformation (IMPACT) Act mandated admission drug review (DRR) upon admission to a postacute, long-term care (PALTC) facility.<br/> SUMMARY:This was a prospective study investigating the occurrence of medication therapy problems (MTP) identified by two different DRR processes; SAP versus DAP. Data were collected in a community hospital and a stand-alone PALTC facility. It was found that the DAP identified more safety-related medication needs and medication omissions than an SAP. There was a significant association between the type of access and whether a MTP (ie, yes or no) was discovered, the type of medication-related need, and MTP category.<br/> CONCLUSION: These results strongly suggest that current standard of practice should change to require access to both hospital and PALTC EHR systems for a pharmacist completing the medication reconciliation. Until the gap in EHR interoperability is closed, the potential breakdown in communication associated with SAP places patients transitioning from hospital to PALTC facilities at increased risk for medication problems and accompanying adverse medication events.

This chapter introduces a model approach to long-term digital preservation of Electronic Health Record (EHR). The long-term digital preservation is an emerging trend in the environment of digital libraries. However, legal or business needs may cause the use of digital preservation strategies in different fields. This is the case of the EHR as part of the information system of a healthcare institution. After a reasonable space of time without activity, an EHR becomes a passive information unit. Consequently, this passive information unit remains safe in a separate information system where the main purpose is digitally preserving this information on a long-term basis. There are two appropriate methodologies, Trustworthy Repository Audit and Certification Criteria (TRAC) and a Reference Model for Open Archival Information System (OAIS). These methodologies can widely be adopted by health care organizations to preserve EHR in the long-term.

Regional Health made a commitment as part of quality and patient safety initiatives to have an electronic health record before the federal government developed the concept of “meaningful use.” The “One System of Care, One Electronic Chart” concept was a long-term goal of their organization, accomplished through electronically sharing a patient’s medical record among Regional Health’s five hospitals and other area health care facilities. Implementing a hybrid electronic record using a scanning and archiving application was the first step toward the long-term goal of an electronic health record. The project was successfully achieved despite many challenges, including some limited resources and physician concerns.
