Open Source Software and the Path to EHR Heaven (Part 2 of 2)
The previous segment of this article explained the challenges faced by health care organizations and suggested two ways they could be solved through free and open source software. We’ll finish the exploration in this segment of the article.
Situational awareness would reduce alert fatigue and catch errors
Difficult EHR interfaces are probably the second most frustrating aspect of being a doctor today: the first prize goes to the EHR’s inability to understand and adapt to the clinician’s workflow and environment. This is why the workplace redounds with beeps and belches from EHRs all day, causing alert fat...

Climate Crisis Call to Action: Major Obstacles but Hope for an “Energized Base”
We have known for more than half a century that the earth is heating up and scientists have long foretold the consequences. Yet in these same decades, the earth’s population has increased dramatically; the demand for convenience, quality of life, and consumer goods has expanded; energy consumption and CO2 emissions have skyrocketed; and we are living in the hottest climate on record. So why aren’t we doing more to stop this catastrophe?
One way to answer this question is by contrasting our inertia with the successful response to another public health crisis: the AIDS epidemic. Act Up, the political movement of t...

The UN ’ s Extreme Poverty Report: Further Evidence US Healthcare Is Divorced From Reality
By DAVID INTROCASO, Ph.D.
In May Philip Alston, the United Nation’s Special Rapporteur on Extreme Poverty, and John Norton Pomeroy Professor of Law at New York University Law School released his, “Report of the Special Rapporteur On Extreme Poverty and Human Rights on His Mission to the United States.” The 20-page report was based, in part, on Alston’s visits this past December to California, Georgia, Puerto Rico, West Virginia and Washington, D.C. After reading the report and the response to it, one is again forced to question how legitimate is our concern for the health and well being of the poor, or ...

Results from the 2018 Libertarianism vs. Conservatism Post-Debate Survey
As part of a yearly summer tradition, the Heritage Foundation and Cato Institute co-host a debate in which interns at both think tanks debate whether conservatism or libertarianism is a better ideology. Following this year’s debate, the Cato Institute conducted a post-debate survey of attendees to ask who they thought won the debate and what they believe about a variety of public policy and philosophical issues. The post-debate survey offers a unique opportunity to examine how young leaders in the conservative and libertarian movements approach deep philosophical questions that may be inaccessible to a general au...

Why Oncologists Should Decline to Participate in the Right to Try Act
I just published my 8th Law and Ethics in Oncology column in the ASCO Post: "Why Oncologists Should Decline to Participate in the Right to Try Act."
On May 30, 2018, President Donald J. Trump signed into law the Trickett Wendler, Frank Mongiello, Jordan McLinn, and Matthew Bellina Right to Try Act of 2017. This law creates an additional and alternative pathway for patients with a “life-threatening disease or condition” to access investigational medicines outside the clinical trial system. Since there are more than 1,100 cancer medicines currently under investigation, this law will materially impac...

Grief and the Healing Property of Time
This article will not begin to address the complexities presented in suicidal, homicidal, child or antepartum, perin atal, or postpartum bereavement.)For most adults who experience the death of a loved one, they will move through normal grief reactions without any pathology.[11] What I try to reframe are the expectations we have regarding what ’s “appropriate coping”. Sometimes I get called to a family because the patient or family is crying too much; other times it’s because they aren’t crying at all. What I want everyone to know is either response is acceptable. Grief can cause you to withdraw from people and a...

A Libertarian ’ s Case Against Free Markets in Healthcare
By ROMAN ZAMISHKA
In the final act of Shakespeare’s Richard III the eponymous villain king arrives on the battlefield to fight against Richmond, who will soon become Henry VII. During the battle Richard is dismounted as his horse is killed and in a mad frenzy wades through the battlefield screaming “A horse, a horse! My kingdom for a horse!” Richard shows us how market value can change drastically depending on the circumstances, or your mental state, and even the most absurd exchange rate can become reasonable in a moment of crisis.
This presumably arbitrary nature of prices should be the first thing a...

MADE at The University of Iowa Turns Clinicians ’ Ideas into Medical Products
New medical devices and technologies are being unveiled on a daily basis, as readers of Medgadget know well. Medical professionals are provided so much newly discovered knowledge that they end up creating new devices to take advantage of that knowledge. The medical device industry has a problem keeping pace, so universities are trying to pull on the slack.
One recently launched initiative to help with that is MADE at The University of Iowa. This is an innovative program that we wanted to learn more about, particularly since many other institutions are considering their own similar approaches. We spoke with Jordan Kaufmann,...

Leishmaniasis in Palestine
In the following charts, I’ve compared reported incidence rates for cutaneous leishmaniasis in the two states which comprise Palestine. Note that disease rates in a third area (Gaza / West Bank) are two- to three-fold those reported by Israel and Jordan. Significantly, current rates in Syria (per 100,000) are approximately one hundred-fold those of Israel (280 vs. 3 in 2016) [1,2]
