2. IS Research Projects • Participating Faculty • Computer Science – R. Kelly • Stony Brook Health Science Center – A. Bicker,A. Singer, M. LoGuidice • Marine Science – R. Wilson, S. Piontkovski • In-Place Research Contract Support • Emergency Medicine Foundation (through 12/2006) • Millennium NYStar (through 2006) • US HRSA (through 2007) • Sea Grant, NY • NSF Division of Environmental Biology (through 2006)

3. Projects Themes • Health Science Systems • Process reengineering • Reduction in medical errors • Knowledge representation • Marine Science Systems • Sensor systems • Web data display • Image processing • Wireless applications

4. US Healthcare Issues • Costs are enormous • Quality is not consistent with cost • Error rate is significant • Adverse events in approximately 3% of hospital stays • More than 50,000 fatalities per year

5. Anesthesiology Record Keeper • Support – SB Hospital • Problem • Improve accuracy of anesthesia data recording • Reduce documentation requirement for anesthesiologists • Approach • Analyze OR processes • Automatic monitor data capture • Integrate with hospital data • Allow data overrides • Status • Now in use in all Stony Brook Hospital Operating Rooms (ORs) • DB allows for case analysis and data mining

6. Monitor QA • Support - NYStar/US HRSA • Approach • Record monitor data during surgery for a large data sample • Develop techniques for analyzing and comparing these recorded data streams • Build a flexible network of stream integration modules • Build stream analyzers to identify potential harmful conditions that are otherwise unobservable • Capture secondary patient outcomes • Relate secondary outcomes to monitor patterns and drug administration • Provide stream data analysis for clinical trial drug effectiveness studies

7. Emergency Room System • Support – Emergency Medicine Foundation & NYStar/US HRSA • Problem • Warning indicators missed or received following discharge • Patient candidates for clinical trials not identified • Approach • Include an automated rule base for discharge analysis and clinical trial candidates • Automatically obtain patient clinical data • Process electronic rules against patient clinical data • Provide hospital alerts to previously unidentified conditions

8. Marine Data Display • Problem • Develop a real-time system for the capture, analysis, and display of water/air data • Approach • Provide a Web-based interface with images generated in response to user requests • Integrate Google Maps data with marine charts and images • Integrate historical marine data with real-time data

9. LI Sound Sensor Network • Stony Brook has instrumented the P.T. Barnum vessel with air and water sensors • Sensors connected to a shipboard server • Transmission of sensor data to ground station approximately once per minute • Additional sensors planned

10. LI Sound and Plankton Display • Real-time for LI Sound • Historical data for Europe and Asia • Image combination • Merge of chart and image data • Data selection
