Interactive Visual Exploration of Electronic Health Records
A HCIL 2008 Symposium Workshop
May 30th, 2008, Friday, 9:30am-5:P30pm
Overview
This workshop is a part of the Human-Computer Interaction Lab's Annual Symposium. We encourage you to attend these presentations about the research being done at the Lab! Visit the HCIL Symposium page for more information. As electronic health records (EHR) become more widespread, they enable clinicians and researchers to pose complex queries that could benefit immediate patient care and deepen understanding of medical treatment outcomes. However, the current design of patient databases and query tools makes some queries difficult to pose. This workshop will address efforts to develop visualization tools for physicians, clinical researchers, and medical administrators seeking to improve diagnostic decisions, treatment plan outcomes, and hospital quality assessment. Challenges include design of visual query interface, rapid execution of the queries, and comprehensible exploration of the results.
Topics
- Multiple EHR visualization
- Exploration of temporal patterns
- Single/multiple EHR summary
- Visual query interface
- On-field evaluation
Thank you All For Coming!
