After Evidence-Based Design: Creating a Collaborative Science of Healthcare Delivery to Reduce Harm in Critical Care

*********************************
There is now a CONTENT FREEZE for Mercury while we switch to a new platform. It began on Friday, March 10 at 6pm and will end on Wednesday, March 15 at noon. No new content can be created during this time, but all material in the system as of the beginning of the freeze will be migrated to the new platform, including users and groups. Functionally the new site is identical to the old one. webteam@gatech.edu

Full Summary: A seminar on the collaboration between Johns Hopkins’ Armstrong Institute and Georgia Tech’s SimTigrate Design Lab focused on rigorous methods, clear metrics for patterns of care, transparent reporting of outcomes, shared sources of data and tools, and simulations and field tests of innovative solutions.

Despite nearly two decades of quality improvement in healthcare and in evidence-based design, U.S. healthcare remains too dangerous, costly, and stressful. This session discusses a growing collaboration between the Johns Hopkins’ Armstrong Institute and Georgia Tech SimTigrate Design Lab. This collaboration focused on rigorous methods, clear metrics for patterns of care, transparent reporting of outcomes, shared sources of data and tools, and simulations and field tests of innovative solutions. Its learnings point the way toward systems approaches for patient safety in the ICU and how to effectively incorporate integrated technology, process, and physical design of spaces and devices.

  • Learn the key requirements necessary for superior patient- and family-centered care in ICU and inpatient hospital rooms.
  • Obtain metrics for measuring design to achieve requirements.
  • Present findings in an actionable format.
  • See how research can be effectively applied in a healthcare design project.

Panelists:
Adam Sapirstein, Associate Professor, Dept. of Anesthesiology and Critical Care Medicine; Director, Division of Adult Critical Care Medicine; Co-director, Surgical Intensive Care Organization; Director, Division of Adult Critical Care Medicine; Johns Hopkins Medicine
Craig Zimring, Professor and Director, SimTigrate Design Lab, College of Architecture, Georgia Institute of Technology
