Developing Solution-Focused Partnerships with Industry Using Data Analytics-Patient Centered Informatics (PCI): Connecting Consumers and Providers

Dr. Josette Jones is the program director of the Department of BioHealth Informatics at the Indiana University School of Informatics and Computing (SoIC) in Indianapolis (IUPUI), where she prepares students with skills they will need as health informatics professionals. These competencies include patient-centered care, interdisciplinary teamwork, evidence-based practice, and the ability to use informatics to improve and expand the delivery and quality of care. Additionally, at IUPUI, she has been instrumental in developing the graduate curricula in nursing and health informatics and health information technology.

Her current research program focuses on analyzing, formalizing and representing (ontology) how health care providers, including nurses, and health care consumers collect and manage data, process data into information and knowledge, and make knowledge-based decisions and inferences for health care. This empirical and experential knowledge is used in order to broaden the scope and enhance the quality of professional practice as well as interactive patient self-management support. Her research also capitalizes on Internet technology and its widespread acceptance as an information resource for providers and consumers alike.

Dr. Jones' use of data to improve consumer and provider experiences is another example of how IUPUI faculty are TRANSLATING RESEARCH INTO PRACTICE.

    Development of User-Centered Interfaces to Search the Knowledge Resources of the Virginia Henderson International Nursing Library
    (2003) Jones, Josette; Harris, Marcelline; Thompson, Cheryl Bagley
    The primary aim of this collaborative research project was to develop "tell and ask" functional interface where the nurse communicates with the knowledge base by making logical assertions based on his/her domain knowledge.

    Searching for Patient Educational Information Using Electronic Resources: An Exploration of Nurses' Search Behavior
    (2003) Jones, Josette F.; Brennan, Patricia F.
    Nurses are willing to use browser-based electronic resources, such as the WWW to search for patient educational information. But there are problems: Successful searching requires skills unfamiliar to nurses, search results are presented in long undifferentiated lists of available information, and nurses lack the time to sort the search results. The primary aim of this research was to examine the process by which nurses in clinical settings search for patient educational information using browser-based electronic resources.

    Large Scale Semantic Annotation of Radiology Reports
    (Office of the Vice Chancellor for Research, 2010-04-09) Mahoui, Malika; Kashyap, Vinay; Jamieson, Patrick; Jones, Josette; Friedlin, Jeffrey
    The development and testing of automated information extraction (IE) systems depends on semantically annotated free text. This presentation reports on the results of a large scale annotation project of a radiology corpus, the Roentgen corpus, consisting of 594,000 deidentified radiology reports with 36 million words, and 4.3 million sentences supplied by Indiana University. The presentation highlights the (1) sentence-based approach in defining propositions annotating the corpus, (2) as well as the annotation framework that is incrementally built and refined in order to facilitate the process of annotation.

    Decision Support System For Geriatric Care
    (Office of the Vice Chancellor for Research, 2010-04-09) Palakal, Mathew; Pandit, Yogesh; Jones, Josette; Xia, Yuni; Bandos, Jean; Geesaman, Jerry; Pecenka, Dave; Tinsley, Eric
    Geriatrics is a branch in medicine that focuses on the healthcare of the elderly. We propose to build a decision support system for the elderly care based on a knowledgebase system that incorporates best practices that are reported in the literature. A Bayesian network model is then used for decision support for the geriatric care tool that we develop.

    Broadband and Health Care: Legal and Policy Issues with Personal Health Records (PHR)
    (2010-10-14) Hook, Sara Anne; Jones, Josette
    This session will discuss the security, privacy and accessibility of PHRs and how the 2009 ARRA stimulus provisions (HITECH Act) and the 2010 National Broadband Plan facilitate, hamper or leave gaps in the implementation of PHRs for managing health information. It will also highlight unsettled legal issues with PHRs and the impact of state and federal legislation and government agencies.

    If the World Can Be Your Oyster, Why Settle for Clams: Enhancing Student Learning through Meaningful Work and Global Reach
    (2011-04-15) Jones, Josette; Hook, Sara Anne
    This presentation will showcase the various approaches taken in online courses and in one-on-one interactions to enhance student learning and provide students with the opportunity for collaboration and connections at the local, national and even international level. Some of the approaches include service learning, international initiatives, participation in faculty research projects, faculty-guided student research at the undergraduate and graduate level, peer evaluation, co-authoring and co-presenting of research results and use of technology to build partnerships and create community.

    Managing Patient Health Across Diverse Spaces: Using Activity Theory to Model Pervasive Decision Support
    (2012) Faiola, Anthony; Boston-Clay, Crystal; Jones, Josette; Downey, Michael; Newlon, Christine M.
    Clinical decision support (CDS) systems can offer health care providers and patient data that is intelligently filtered and presented in ways to enhance diagnosis and long-term health care management, both within and outside clinical spaces. Challenges to this information management include diagnostic error and inefficiencies from conflicting, incomplete, or suboptimal clinical systems [3] as well as extending care outside the traditional clinical environment. We propose a Clinical Activity Model (CAM) to understand pervasive CDS system design and use across multiple health care spaces as patients move between critical care, recovery, and long-term home care. We discuss CAM in the context of research findings comparing a novel CDS system with traditional modes of data delivery and by describing use of that system as a mobile diagnostic tool to bridge clinical care and home care.
