Journal Entry 5: Data Manipulation and
Presentation
Lesson learned Journal Entry 5:
Data Manipulation and Presentation
I learned many
things about data this week and the good and bad of data manipulation. I
learned about the use of cloud computing
in data manipulation as a long term storage solution for the interdisciplinary
field of Bioinformatics. They have been looking for solutions to extrapolate
the vital information from the rapid accumulation of the data and using the
internet has been proposed. Rita brought
to the forefront that there can be ethical issues with the data and information
in the way it is presented and we need to careful of the quality of data and
the source. Adam discussed the new mobile
technology and how it will change the healthcare landscape. The access to data and the ability to provide
care when analyzing this data makes this program valuable. Joy explained the
new technology of Google glasses and how they can visualize data by wearing
these glasses. This can be very helpful to emergency room physicians because
they can view vital sign, lab reports, through this application via the Droid. Fiona
spoke about the presentation of data and how some presentations are good and
some are poor.
Data
management and manipulation can impact activities of daily living and social
contact with Google glasses, be presented in PowerPoint presentations or be
part of the newest mobile technology. It is advancing daily and we as healthcare
providers need to be aware of the many avenues of data.
