Using social knowledge networking technology to enable meaningful use of electronic health record technology in hospitals and health systems.
In this paper, Rangachari (1) reviewed the theoretical literatures on technology use & implementation, and identified a framework for understanding & overcoming unintended adverse consequences of implementing Electronic Health Records; (2) outlined a broad project proposal to test the applicability of the framework in enabling "meaningful use" of Electronic Health Records in a healthcare context; and (3) identified strategies for successful implementation of Electronic Health Records in hospitals & health systems, based on the literature review and application.

More than half of US hospitals have at least a basic EHR, but stage 2 criteria remain challenging for most.
The investigators used American Hospital Association data to assess progress and challenges in EHR adoption. They found that most hospitals are able to meet many of the stage 2 meaningful-use criteria, but only 5.8 percent of hospitals are able to meet them all.

A novel web-based depth video rewind approach toward fall preventive interventions in hospitals.
The purpose of this study was to implement a web-based application to provide the ability to rewind and review depth videos captured in hospital rooms to investigate the event chains that led to patient’s fall at a specific time. It proposes a novel web application to ease the process of search and review of the videos by means of new visualization techniques to highlight video frames that contain potential risk of fall based on our previous research.
