Fresh perspectives on clinical terminologies, code mapping, and patient insights from the experts at IMO.
With the easing of COVID-19 restrictions countries are reducing genomic surveillance, limiting the data necessary to prepare for new variants.
Learn how ontologies give systems, like your EHR, the “knowledge” they need to support automated reasoning.
Increasing interoperability in healthcare is a positive step – but one that requires paying attention to patient privacy issues.
In our series of blogs – What’s in a variant? – we have been discussing how to best translate SARS-CoV-2 sequencing data into a useable format to serve a variety of pandemic use cases. In this final installment, we explore our final application – patient care.
It would be difficult to find an area of healthcare that has not been touched by the COVID-19 pandemic. The widespread adoption of telehealth services is no exception. Our latest blog and eBook explore this evolving trend.
In part two of our four-part blog series about COVID-19 variants, we explained the importance of data harmonization, which must occur before sequencing, clinical, and epidemiologic data can be combined. In part three, we look at how to maintain the link between patients and their sequence.
Part one of our blog series about SARS-CoV-2 variants explained the value of combining viral sequencing data with epidemiological and clinical information in the fight against the pandemic. But challenges remain. To be useable, data must be understandable for all users – a process that’s not as straightforward as it seems.
As concern around the delta variant – among other mutations – of the SARS-CoV-2 virus grows, it’s critical that we take advantage of all the resources at our disposal to help combat the pandemic. A key tool in our toolbox? Harnessing the power of genomic sequencing. In part one of this four-part blog series, we’re explaining the value of sequencing with respect to emerging variants.
Creating a certifiable vaccine card for COVID-19 within the US is a complicated process. But taking these passes worldwide presents a whole new set of factors to consider. In part two of our digital health pass series, we take a look at some of the additional struggles behind creating an international certification standard.
