ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Though public health is an information-intense profession, there is a paucity of workforce with Public Health Informatics and Technology (PHIT) skills, which was evident during the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic. This need is addressed through the PHIT workforce program (2021-2025) by the Office of the National Coordinator for training and to increase racial and ethnic diversity in the PHIT workforce. The objective is to share details on the Training in Informatics for Underrepresented Minorities in Public Health (TRIUMPH) consortium, funded by the PHIT workforce program. METHODS: The TRIUMPH consortium is a collaboration between academic and practice partners with a commitment to training 879 students in PHIT. The Schools of Public Health and Nursing at the University of Minnesota, Jiann-Ping Hsu College of Public Health at Georgia Southern University, Morehouse School of Medicine, and Public Health Informatics Institute offer PHIT training through various programs. Academic institutions focus on student recruitment, developing courses/curriculum, and granting degrees/certificates, and the role of practice partners is to support experiential learning through internships/practicums. RESULTS: The TRIUMPH consortium is progressing toward its goals, with 692 students (79%) already trained in a PHIT modality as of December 2023. The learners comprise diverse race/ethnicity, including White (48%), Black/African American (32%), Asian (10%), White Hispanic (5%), American Indian/Alaska Native (2%), and Black Hispanic (1%). Numerous internships have been completed in settings ranging from state/local public health agencies to health care delivery systems. Diversity initiatives were supported by partnering with existing programs (e.g., the AMIA First Look program and the Nursing Knowledge Big Data Science conference). CONCLUSION: This consortium model is an excellent approach to informatics training and sharing expertise across partners. It provides scalability and broader geographic outreach while presenting opportunities to students from underrepresented backgrounds. Lessons learned have implications for overall informatics training (e.g., partnerships models, promoting racial/ethnic diversity).

ABSTRACT

Medical and preventive integration effectively bridges the gap between "treating diseases" and "preventing diseases". Over the years, medical and preventive integration research has focused on chronic and chronic infectious diseases, with insufficient attention to acute ones. Confronting newly emerging infectious diseases establishing continuous monitoring, early warning, emergency response, and appropriate treatment will be a key focus for developing and reforming the healthcare system. Interoperability and sharing of medical and health data are essential prerequisites for bridging the gap between medical treatment and disease prevention and are also important for promoting intelligent surveillance and early warning of infectious diseases. Informatization is necessary to achieve efficient collaboration between medical treatment and disease prevention. Reviewing the development of medical and health informatization in the United States and Europe, this paper compares and discusses the problems and challenges in developing medical and health informatization in China. The aim is to provide references for the development of medical and health informatization and the innovation of medical and preventive integration mechanisms in the country.

ABSTRACT

The US public health infrastructure has been historically underfunded, a condition that was exacerbated by the COVID-19 pandemic. This was especially noted in the area of public health informatics. It was also acknowledged that the lack of a diverse public health workforce made it more difficult to address biases and disparities effectively. In 2021 the Office of the National Coordinator awarded $73 million to 10 awardees to develop public health informatics and technology (PHIT) workforce training. The Gaining Equity in Training for Public Health Informatics and Technology (GET PHIT) award utilizes various methods to train and engage minority and underserved populations in the field of public health informatics. Evaluations of the bootcamps and internships to date have shown generally positive results, both in terms of skills acquired and overall experiences. These results indicate that integrating the fields of public health and data science in non-degree, short-term experiences can have positive outcomes.

ABSTRACT

The role of informatics in public health has increased over the past few decades, and the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has underscored the critical importance of aggregated, multicenter, high-quality, near-real-time data to inform decision-making by physicians, hospital systems, and governments. Given the impact of the pandemic on perioperative and critical care services (eg, elective procedure delays; information sharing related to interventions in critically ill patients; regional bed-management under crisis conditions), anesthesiologists must recognize and advocate for improved informatic frameworks in their local environments. Most anesthesiologists receive little formal training in public health informatics (PHI) during clinical residency or through continuing medical education. The COVID-19 pandemic demonstrated that this knowledge gap represents a missed opportunity for our specialty to participate in informatics-related, public health-oriented clinical care and policy decision-making. This article briefly outlines the background of PHI, its relevance to perioperative care, and conceives intersections with PHI that could evolve over the next quarter century.

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVES: The objective of this study is to highlight innovative research and contemporary trends in the area of Public Health and Epidemiology Informatics (PHEI). METHODS: Following a similar approach to last year's edition, a meticulous search was conducted on PubMed (with keywords including topics related to Public Health, Epidemiological Surveillance and Medical Informatics), examining a total of 2,022 scientific publications on Public Health and Epidemiology Informatics (PHEI). The resulting references were thoroughly examined by the three section editors. Subsequently, 10 papers were chosen as potential candidates for the best paper award. These selected papers were then subjected to peer-review by six external reviewers, in addition to the section editors and two chief editors of the IMIA yearbook of medical informatics. Each paper underwent a total of five reviews. RESULTS: Out of the 539 references retrieved from PubMed, only two were deemed worthy of the best paper award, although four papers had the potential to qualify in total. The first best paper by pertains to a study about the need for a new annotation framework due to inadequacies in existing methods and resources. The second paper elucidates the use of Weibo data to monitor the health of Chinese urbanites. The correlation between air pollution and health sensing was measured via generalized additive models. CONCLUSIONS: One of the primary findings of this edition is the dearth of studies identified for the PHEI section, which represents a significant decline compared to the previous edition. This is particularly surprising given that the post-COVID period should have led to an increased use of information and communication technology for public health issues.

ABSTRACT

[ABSTRACT]. The Pan American Health Organization/ World Health Organization (PAHO/WHO) Anti-Infodemic Virtual Center for the Americas (AIVCA) is a project led by the Department of Evidence and Intelligence for Action in Health, PAHO and the Center for Health Informatics, PAHO/WHO Collaborating Center on Information Systems for Health, at the University of Illinois, with the participation of PAHO staff and consultants across the region. Its goal is to develop a set of tools—pairing AI with human judgment—to help ministries of health and related health institutions respond to infodemics. Public health officials will learn about emerging threats detected by the center and get recommendations on how to respond. The virtual center is structured with three parallel teams: detection, evidence, and response. The detection team will employ a mixture of advanced search que- ries, machine learning, and other AI techniques to sift through more than 800 million new public social media posts per day to identify emerging infodemic threats in both English and Spanish. The evidence team will use the EasySearch federated search engine backed by AI, PAHO’s knowledge management team, and the Librar- ian Reserve Corps to identify the most relevant authoritative sources. The response team will use a design approach to communicate recommended response strategies based on behavioural science, storytelling, and information design approaches.


[RESUMEN]. El centro virtual contra la infodemia para la Región de las Américas de la Organización Panamericana de la Salud/Organización Mundial de la Salud (OPS/OMS) es un proyecto liderado por el Departamento de Eviden- cia e Inteligencia para la Acción en la Salud de la OPS y el Center for Health Informatics de la Universidad de Illinois, centro colaborador de la OPS/OMS en sistemas de información para la salud, con la participación de personal y consultores de la OPS en toda la Región. Su objetivo es crear un conjunto de herramientas que combinen inteligencia artificial (IA) y los criterios humanos para apoyar a los ministerios de salud y las instituciones relacionadas con la salud en la respuesta a la infodemia. Los funcionarios de salud pública reci- birán formación sobre las amenazas emergentes detectadas por el centro y recomendaciones sobre cómo abordarlas. El centro virtual está estructurado en tres equipos paralelos: detección, evidencia y respuesta. El equipo de detección empleará una combinación de consultas mediante búsqueda avanzada, aprendizaje automático y otras técnicas de IA para evaluar más de 800 millones de publicaciones nuevas en las redes sociales al día con el fin de detectar amenazas emergentes en el ámbito de la infodemia tanto en inglés como en español. El equipo de evidencia hará uso del motor de búsqueda federado EasySearch y, con el apoyo de la IA, el equipo de gestión del conocimiento de la OPS y la red Librarian Reserve Corps, determinará cuáles son las fuentes autorizadas más pertinentes. El equipo de respuesta utilizará un enfoque vinculado al diseño para difundir las estrategias recomendadas sobre la base de las ciencias del comportamiento, la narración de historias y el diseño de la información.

ABSTRACT

La pandemia de COVID-19 evidenció que la vigilancia epidemiológica no disponía de recursos para responder a los aumentos de casos ni a los brotes. La alta transmisibilidad comunitaria entre la población escolar en la ciudad de Barcelona al inicio de la sexta ola tensionó la unidad de vigilancia de COVID-19 de la ciudad. Mediante metodología SCRUM se desarrolló e implementó Germina, una herramienta informática capaz de capturar, armonizar, integrar, almacenar, analizar y visualizar diariamente datos de múltiples fuentes de información. Germina permite identificar agrupaciones de tres o más casos escolares y calcular indicadores epidemiológicos. La implementación de Germina facilitó la respuesta epidemiológica a la sexta ola de COVID-19 en el ámbito escolar en Barcelona. Esta herramienta es aplicable a otros ámbitos de exposición y a otras enfermedades transmisibles. El uso de herramientas informáticas automatizadas, como Germina, mejora los sistemas de vigilancia epidemiológica y apoya la toma de decisiones basada en la evidencia.(AU)


The COVID-19 pandemic showed that epidemiological surveillance was under-resourced to respond to increases in cases and outbreaks. The high community transmissibility among the school population in the city of Barcelona at the beginning of the sixth wave strained the local COVID-19 surveillance unit. Using SCRUM methodology, Germina was developed and implemented as a software tool capable of capturing, harmonizing, integrating, storing, analysing and visualizing data from multiple information sources on a daily basis. Germina identifies clusters of three or more school cases and calculates epidemiological indicators. The implementation of Germina facilitated the epidemiological response to the sixth wave of COVID-19 in the school setting in the city of Barcelona. This tool is transferable to other exposure settings and communicable diseases. The use of automated informatics tools such, as Germina, improves epidemiological surveillance systems and supports evidence-based decision making.(AU)
