    Description/Abstract:
    Improving Accuracy and Saving Time: Electronic Vitals Documentation Vitals signs are perhaps the most fundamental component of patient evaluation. Although there is overwhelming agreement that vital signs are crucial to both detecting and responding to patient status, the methods in which vital signs are documented in electronic health records (EHR) has received limited attention in the research literature. Current practice is to document vital signs on a piece of paper as they are being taken and then later transcribed to the EHR. This practice utilizes poor use of clinical time, increases the chance of errors and causes a delay in clinical decision making possibly leading to escalation of care. This project intends to use evidence based technology methods to electronically document vital signs in real time. This method of adopting an informatics based solution in a general medical surgical unit will demonstrate quality improvement, improved safety and cost containment.

    Description/Abstract:
    This talk was the third panelist in the Data Empowering Social Justice Session for the 4th Annual UC Data Day Conference hosted by UC Libraries. Christopher J. Sullivan, School of Criminal Justice, University of Cincinnati Talk Title: Working with Agency Data to Better Understand Racial Disparities: The Case of Disproportionate Minority Contact with the Juvenile Justice System This presentation is based on a recently-concluded study that sought to better understand patterns of disproportionate minority contact (DMC) in Ohio’s juvenile justice system. The project required extensive assessment and integration of record data that varied in their structures, availability of key fields, and operational definitions, which were collected or extracted from dozens of local juvenile court and police agencies across the state. Currently lead federally-funded research studies on juvenile risk and needs assessment and important reforms in Ohio’s juvenile justice systems.

    This talk was the first panelist in the Data Empowering Social Justice Session for the 4th Annual UC Data Day Conference hosted by UC Libraries. Theresa M. Culley, Professor and Head of Biological Sciences, University of Cincinnati Talk Title: Lessons From Publishing: Do Researchers in Developing Countries Receive Credit for Their Work? My laboratory is working to better understand if scientists in developing countries, where the majority of plant biodiversity occurs, are receiving proper scientific recognition for their research in the form of authorship in the peer-reviewed literature. We are also interested in promoting shared, accessible data that may be used in future studies to make novel advancements in the biological field. Our research thus far indicates that many scientists in developing countries are not being included in the published literature as authors
