SUMMARY:CME for Physicians Series: Advancing Discovery of Geomarkers for Patient-Centered Care
DESCRIPTION:Presented by Jacqueline W. Curtis\, Ph.D.\, Associate Professor\, Co-Director\, GIS Health & Hazards Lab\, Department of Population and Quantitative Health Sciences\, School of Medicine\, Case Western Reserve University and Visiting Associate Professor\, Mercer University School of Medicine\, Columbus\, Georgia \nLearning Objectives:\n– Understand how 80% of patient health can be addressed outside of clinic walls\n– Understand current applications of geospatial technologies and data in clinical medicine\n– Identify geomarkers as complements to biomarkers for patient-centered care \nDetails\nThe National Academy of Medicine estimates that approximately 20% of patient health can be addressed through medical care within clinic walls\, but that 80% is driven by what happens beyond. Geomarkers are an emerging way to characterize this 80%. They are complements to biomarkers and are based on data from the full suite of geospatial technologies\, such as GPS-enabled sensors (e.g.\, air quality) and satellite data (e.g.\, heat exposure). These and other environmental exposures can be integrated with social determinants of health and then linked to patient-level data in Electronic Health Records (EHRs) through Geographic Information Systems (GIS). This approach enables more comprehensive and personalized health care.
