The document provides an overview of the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) and its requirements for protecting patient health information. HIPAA was enacted to improve health insurance coverage and reduce fraud and waste. It protects all identifiable patient health records, including names, dates of birth, diagnoses, and test results. HIPAA mandates administrative safeguards for privacy, including access controls, security training, and protocols for handling security incidents and terminated employees. Non-compliance can result in civil and criminal penalties up to $250,000 and 10 years in prison. The presentation emphasizes the importance of training and teamwork to prevent HIPAA violations.

This document contains a presentation by Tony Haile, CEO of Chartbeat, about analyzing online user behavior and content engagement data. It includes data about factors like the correlation between ad exposure time and brand recall, how device usage varies throughout the day, what content receives the most and least reads per click, and the percentages of traffic from direct visits and social media by device. The presentation explores how to use this data to improve online experiences and monetization strategies.
Huffman codes are a type of variable-length code that represents characters using codewords of different lengths. The Huffman coding algorithm builds the Huffman tree by repeatedly combining the two lowest frequency characters until a full binary tree is created, with the lowest frequency characters having the longest codewords. This results in an optimal prefix code where no codeword is a prefix of another, and the expected length of the encoded data is minimized.

Critical problem of modern medical informatics are: fragmented information, documents and patient data stored in a large number of information systems that are not connected. Another problem is lack of unified international standards in the field of medical informatics, communication and exchange of data. This situation presents a major problem for medical staff on one side and the patient on another. Patient has big problems to get access and collect his medical records. On the other hand medical workers always work on partial patient data, the one that they have in their own system. Crucial data for patient treatment that can critically affect the healing process are scattered in the hospital, medical and specialist information systems.
Company Parsek d.o.o. designed an integrated healthcare portal - Vitaly, allowing the patient and medical staff have access to all data in the form of intuitive web portal. Vitaly is safe, user-friendly, web-based tool that connects and unites stakeholders, information and medical documentation. Vitaly connect stakeholders in process prior to treatment, during the treatment process and in the post treatment process. Vitaly allows and encourages interaction between patients and medical staff; the exchange of documents, messages, results of examinations, effects of medications and the patient's well-being. Communication between Vitaly and other information systems is based on international standards in the field of medical informatics (IHE and HL7) and a special focus on secure and encrypted exchange of all information and documents.
The specialty fields vary from nation to nation, the division of specialties can be sometimes blurry and can seem fairly arbitrary, overlapping. It seems strange since medicine today is very science based, and science itself is very international. Doctors from all over the world try hard to exchange knowledge and be cutting edge. But still the specialty fields remain a bit different and not truly synchronized.

Stakeholders can deliver high value care by engaging patients, doctors, nurses, administrators, managers, and IT providers. Engaging these groups allows for patient self-management and active aging, patient-centric care, and integrated care. It also improves care services, supports new business models, controls costs, and analyzes and plans healthcare activities and trends. Engagement provides patients intuitive access to health data and services, doctors real-time access to clinical data, nurses optimized tasks and communication, administrators control over specialist activities and costs, managers analyses of territorial activities and trends, and IT providers reliable and modular solutions.

- Parsek started with JBoss ESB 4.10 on JBoss AS 5.1 but found ESB had disadvantages like being old technology, slow redeploys, and hard to test.
- They tested and migrated to SwitchYard which is EE6-based, fast to deploy, and easier to test. All ESB logic was moved to EJBs and they upgraded to JBoss AS 6.x.

Insight 2019: Tran Quoc Baos Groundbreaking Role in Vietnams Healthcare Revolution
At the 2019 Insight Symposium, hosted by the Malaysia Healthcare Tourism Council (MHTC), Tran Quoc Bao made history as the first Vietnamese keynote speaker. His presentation on Untapped Opportunities of High-Quality Healthcare Demand in Vietnam showcased the countrys emerging role as a leader in global healthcare, further solidifying his place as a visionary in the field.
As the Chief Planning and Marketing Officer of City International Hospital (CIH) in Ho Chi Minh City, Bao has been instrumental in transforming Vietnam into a global hub for medical tourism. Under his leadership, CIH has grown into a beacon of excellence in Asias healthcare landscape, frequently cited by top global media like Bloomberg, Travel & Leisure, and US News.
With a capacity of 320 beds and 21 medical specialties, CIH treats over 400,000 outpatients annually, 25% of whom come from abroad. This impressive reach is a testament to the hospitals international reputation, which was further solidified when it became a preferred provider for the U.S. Embassy and Consulate in Vietnam.
Baos leadership is defined by a series of innovative initiatives. In 2018, he led a partnership with Philips to open a state-of-the-art diagnostic center, enhancing CIHs diagnostic capabilities. He also oversaw the creation of the Satellite 115 Emergency Center, expanding the hospitals ability to provide comprehensive interventional care.
Among Baos standout achievements is the CIH Stroke Center, one of only 15 such facilities in Ho Chi Minh City. This specialized center has positioned CIH as a leader in stroke care, attracting patients from across Vietnam and beyond.
Baos impact extends beyond the hospital. In 2019, he launched the Pharmacity-CIH Convenience Clinic, Southeast Asias first healthcare model of its kind. In collaboration with Pharmacity, Vietnams leading pharmacy chain, the clinic offers accessible and affordable healthcare, revolutionizing how medical services are delivered to the local population.
Furthermore, Baos global vision extended to sports when CIH became the official medical partner for the Immortal Triumph tournament by One Championship. This partnership highlighted CIHs commitment to world-class emergency and specialized care, further elevating Vietnams healthcare profile on the international stage.
Tran Quoc Baos innovative leadership continues to shape the future of healthcare, positioning City International Hospital and Vietnam as rising stars in the global medical tourism market. Through his dedication and vision, Bao has not only elevated CIH but has placed Vietnam at the forefront of the healthcare revolution.

MALARIA - Pharm D III year Therap .pptxAyesha Fatima
油
Malaria is a life-threatening disease. Its typically transmitted through the bite of an infected Anopheles mosquito. Infected mosquitoes carry the Plasmodium parasite. When this mosquito bites you, the parasite is released into your blood stream.
Phylum : Protozoa
Subphylum : Apicomplexa (Sporozoa)
Class : Telosporea
Genus : Plasmodium
Species : vivax
Plasmodium is one of the most harmful parasites of man.
It is a digenetic, intracellular parasite that lives in the liver cells and RBC of man. (It is extracellular in mosquito).
Its primary host is the female Anopheles mosquito and the secondary host is man. Reservoir host is monkey.
The infective stage is sickle shaped sporozoite and the mode of infection is inoculation.
Four species of Plasmodium cause four types of malaria in man.
They are
i) Plasmodium vivax benign tertian malaria
ii) Plasmodium falciparum malignant tertian malaria
iii) Plasmodium ovale mild tertian malaria
iv) Plasmodium malariae quartan malaria
Of all these four species, Plasmodium vivax is the most common and most widely distributed malaria parasite.
OBJECTIVES AND USE OF ANTIMALARIAL DRUGS
The aims of using drugs in relation to malarial infection are:
(i) To prevent clinical attack of malaria (prophylactic).
(ii) To treat clinical attack of malaria (clinical curative).
(iii) To completely eradicate the parasite from the patients body (radical curative).
(iv) To cutdown human-to-mosquito transmission (gametocidal).
These are achieved by attacking the parasite at its various stages of life cycle in the human host .
Antimalarials that act on erythrocytic schizogony are called erythrocytic schizontocides
Antimalarials that act on pre erythrocytic as well as exoerythrocytic (P. vivax) stages in liver are called tissue schizontocides,
Antimalarials which kill gametocytes in blood are called gametocides.
Severe and complicated falciparum malaria
This includes P. falciparum infection attended by any one or more of
Hyperparasitaemia,
Hyperpyrexia,
Fluid and electrolyte imbalance,
Acidosis,
Hypoglycaemia,
Prostration,
Cardiovascular collapse,
Jaundice,
