We’re thrilled to announce our Keynote Speaker for the FDB Customer Conference. Prepare to be transformed as Stephen Trzeciak, MD, a renowned physician scientist and co-author of "Compassionomics: The Revolutionary Scientific Evidence that Caring Makes a Difference," takes the stage and addresses the current compassion crisis in healthcare. His groundbreaking research demonstrates the substantial impact of compassion on patient outcomes, healthcare provider well-being, and overall healthcare costs. Dr. Trzeciak will explore compelling evidence and share powerful stories showing that compassion is much more than a soft skill—it's a vital element of healthcare that can lead to life-changing outcomes. He will highlight how just 40 seconds of compassionate interaction can make a life-or-death difference. Plan to join us October 9-11, 2024 at the Omni Austin Hotel in Austin, Texas!

Large language models featuring generative artificial intelligence can rapidly and accurately screen patients with heart failure for eligibility in clinical trials, which could make it cheaper and faster to evaluate new treatments and bring successful ones to patients, according to a study published in the New England Journal of Medicine AI. “We saw that large language models hold the potential to fundamentally improve clinical trial screening. Now the difficult work begins to determine how to integrate this capability into real-world trial workflows in a manner that simultaneously delivers improved effectiveness, safety, and equity,” Samuel Aronson, ALM, MA, a co-senior author of the study, said.

A study done at The Mount Sinai Hospital and reported in Critical Care Medicine found that AI-generated alerts significantly improve patient care and outcomes. “Traditionally, we have relied on older manual methods such as the Modified Early Warning Score to predict clinical deterioration. However, our study shows automated machine learning algorithm scores that trigger evaluation by the provider can outperform these earlier methods in accurately predicting this decline. Importantly, it allows for earlier intervention, which could save more lives.” Read more about the study from Todd Shryock via Medical Economics: https://bit.ly/3xR12bu | #AIinHealthcare #ClinicalWorkflows #AIAlerts #PtSafety

A non-profit representing cancer centers has published its latest biannual survey on the current state of cancer drug supplies—and it paints a complicated picture of shortages and the health of the supply chain. “Most [cancer centers surveyed] are still managing shortages for more than one type of medication right now. These shortages not only put a burden on patients, caregivers, and providers, but they could also delay vital clinical trials and slow the pace of progress for new cancer therapies,” Crystal Denlinger, MD, Chief Executive Officer, National Comprehensive Cancer Network® (NCCN®), said in a statement. Chad Van Alstin has the story for Health Exec: https://bit.ly/4cN3YVr | #HealthcareSupplyChain #DrugShortages #PtSafety #DrugKnowledge #CancerTreatment
In a national survey, 89% of cancer centers report drug shortages
