Medication Reconciliation Completed By Pharmacy On Admission From The Ed, Lauren Humiston, Rachael Duncan, Nancy J. Fry

General Submissions: Presentations (Oral and Poster)

Purpose: Medication reconciliation should be performed at all transitions of care according to the Institute for Healthcare Improvement and AHRQ Patient Safety Network. A recent systematic review on errors in medication history at admission estimated that 54-67% of all admitted patients have at least one discrepancy between the medication history obtained by the admitting clinicians and the actual preadmission regimen and that, in 27-59% of those cases, such discrepancies have the potential to cause harm. This project aimed to assess the accuracy of a newly implemented pharmacy-driven admission medication reconciliation service based in the ED.

Design: This was a quality …

Canada In A Climate Disrupted World, Simon Dalby, Daniel Scott, Clay Dasilva, Alex Suen

Geography and Environmental Studies Faculty Publications

Climate change has already begun impacting economies and societies across the globe, and its impacts are expected to increase into the future. Adaptation to climate change is and will continue to be one of the greatest policy challenges facing the Canadian government. However, im- portant and much-needed work on understanding the future of climate change has not yet been completed. Gaps remain in the body of academic, government, and other policy-relevant publications. Specifically, there is a relative paucity of research done on the indirect impacts of climate change on Canada. These external impacts outside of Canada’s borders may have second-order …

Stories of Andrews: Gabriela Melgar

About six years ago a student found her way into my office at Campus Ministries. As she walked in, I was immediately impressed by her sincerity and unassuming confidence. She and her friends, leading a group called “Makarios,” hoped to infuse Hispanic churches with their music ministry. Wow! I was inspired by their sense of mission and desire to shift from passive participants in a resource-rich environment to proactive leaders bringing the treasure of their time and talent. Gabi struck me as an able leader who had a heart for helping people. There was more …

Goat Boy Legend, Elise Teichert

USU Student Folklore Fieldwork

Back in Orangeville, a long time ago, there was a little baby who was abandoned by his parents on a goat farm. No one really knows why they left him, other than they didn’t want him. Must have been an ugly kid. The goat farmer found the boy but couldn’t take care of him, so he left him to live with the goats. The boy grew up with the goats but started changing as he got older. I don’t think he ever learned to speak, just make “baaaaaing” noises like the goats. He started to get really hairy, grow hooves …

Slave To The Algorithm? Why A 'Right To An Explanation' Is Probably Not The Remedy You Are Looking For, Lilian Edwards, Michael Veale

Duke Law & Technology Review

Algorithms, particularly machine learning (ML) algorithms, are increasingly important to individuals’ lives, but have caused a range of concerns revolving mainly around unfairness, discrimination and opacity. Transparency in the form of a “right to an explanation” has emerged as a compellingly attractive remedy since it intuitively promises to open the algorithmic “black box” to promote challenge, redress, and hopefully heightened accountability. Amidst the general furore over algorithmic bias we describe, any remedy in a storm has looked attractive. However, we argue that a right to an explanation in the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) is unlikely to present a …

Abracadabra, Hocus Pocus, Same Song, Different Chorus: The Newest Iteration Of The "Science" Of Lie Detection, Carrie Leonetti

Richmond Journal of Law & Technology

The “lie detector” is the holy grail of criminal investigation and adjudication. Dissatisfied with the jury’s ability to sort truth-tellers from liars, police, prosecutors, and criminologists have longed dreamed of a scientific talisman that would definitively sort the guilty from the innocent.

Drowning In Big Data: Abundance Of Choice, Scarcity Of Attention And The Personalization Trap, A Case For Regulation, Sofia Grafanaki

Richmond Journal of Law & Technology

These eye-catching headlines are just a sample of the headlines that have dominated the news recently. So the secret is out. The Internet can no longer be seen as a utopian place where everyone is equal and freedom is the status quo. Not everything that has to do with technology is simply a “technical” issue. “The technical is political.” There are always values and politics involved in the structure, design and architecture of technology; put differently, these issues are socio-technical and have a deep effect on what sorts of citizens we become.
