3:50 Neural Prostheses: Crossing the Last Meter in Personal Telecommunications Gerald E. Loeb, M.D., Professor of Biomedical Engineering, Director of Medical Device Development, Alfred Mann Institute for BiomedicalEngineering, Deputy Director, NSF Engineering Research Center for Biomimetic MicroElectronic Systems, University of Southern California Fully implanted medical devices are monitoring and controlling ever more complex bodily functions, including the very senses and muscles with which individuals interact with the exter-nal world. Such devices employ complex and proprietary wireless protocols to send power and data between their internal and external components. Their external components inex-orably become connected to the worldwide web of telecommunications that has now crossed the last kilometer into everyone’s home, facilitating centralized management of medicalrecords and treatment. Eventually, these data could include such personal experiences as the scenes and sounds in the patient’s environment, if and how such data were actually pre-sented to the nervous system, and what autonomic responses and motor behaviors they evoked. There are many technological and socioeconomic reasons why this will all take a greatdeal longer than we either hope or fear, but now might be a good time to start thinking about where we want to go with all this emerging technology.

4:20 Homeostasis By Networked Implants: Toward A Technological Immuno/Endocrine System?Mauro Ferrari, Ph.D.A major component of the concept of digital health is the distribution of networked sensing, monitoring and therapeutic delivery stations. These will have the objective of maintaining suit-able balances of molecular actors and counteractors, in a dynamic response to varying physiological, pathological, and environmental conditions. For these stations ever to be deployedwithin the body as implants, it will be necessary to solve a number of daunting technical problems, each in broad generality, as opposed to approaches limited to a subset of sensedmolecules, physical conditions, and delivery agents. The problems include the time-controlled release of agents, starting with sustained zero-order, and progressing to remotely activat-ed, preprogrammed, and self-regulated release in response to a detected set of conditions - all within the context of functional biocompatibility for the desired applications. Our grouphas been active in these fields for several years - a report on our progress and unsolved challenges will be presented in this talk.

4:50 Implantable Telesensor Integrated CircuitsThomas L. Ferrell, Ph.D., Research Professor, Physics, University of Tennessee Telesensor capsules have been developed for the NIAAA for implantation into mammals. The capsules report the concentration of administered ethanol and the metabolite acetaldehydeand the body temperature. In vivo test data from WiStar rats will be shown along with details of the sensors and telemetry.

2:10 Beyond the Electronic Medical RecordDonald W. Rucker, M.D., M.S., M.B.A., Vice President and Chief Medical Officer, Siemens Medical Solutions USA

Over the last two decades, much of clinical computing has been around lab results and narrative text. Work has focused on making the paper chart electronic. In the next two decades, clinical computing will shift from passive data storage to an active role automating steps in the care process. Learn how today's cutting edge technologies such as computerized physician order entry will blend into tomorrow’s workflow automation.

5:20 Development of Wearable Sensors for Physiological MonitoringDaniel Traviglia, Member of Technical Staff, Draper Laboratories The development of wearable sensors will enable individuals to monitor their health on a real-time basis without interfering with daily activities or reducing quality of life. These sensorswill empower patients with increased physiological information and facilitate the transition of healthcare from the clinic to the home, and from treatment to prevention. The challenge,however, is to develop wearable sensors that complement lifestyle and provide both accurate and relevant physiological information. Military interest in wearable sensors has providedthe ability to remotely acquire cardiopulmonary data from deployed soldiers. Physiological monitoring by the military also reduces the risk to medical personnel via remote triage andcommunicates important health status during the “golden hour” that follows many traumatic injuries. Additionally, the introduction of wearable sensors for battlefield soldiers would helpmedical facility preparation for combat injuries. The development of new wearable sensors could benefit directly from the integration of enabling technologies such as MEMs sensors,distributed intelligence, robust fault-tolerant software, signal processing and sophisticated data encryption for the secure transfer of sensitive information.

9:00 Medical Device Interoperability and Acute Instrument Control• Why do we need this? How can medical device interoperability and acute instrument control improve the quality and

efficiency of healthcare?• Where is the greatest bang for the buck? What is the priority order of interoperability and control-related problems for

the healthcare industry to tackle? • How do you see vendors and healthcare institutions collaborating to develop and support interoperability standards?

(Is it in vendors’ interests to work together to make interoperability a reality?)• What can the users of medical devices do today and how can they be agents of change?

8:30 Medical Device Interoperability: Enabling Improvements in Safety and Efficiency in Support of theNational HIT MissionJulian M. Goldman, M.D., Program Director, Medical Device “Plug-and-Play” Interoperability Program at CIMIT and Massachusetts

General Hospital, and Physician Advisor to Partners HealthCare Biomedical Engineering Medical devices are essential to the practice of modern medicine. Physiologic measurements of blood pressure, oxygen level, and body weight; acquisition of x-ray and ultra-sound images; and support of breathing and heart rate, are all routine procedures that require the use of medical devices. However, despite our growing reliance on sophisti-cated medical devices, each device stands alone as an island making it difficult to bring together multiple devices into interoperable systems to improve patient care and to avoidunnecessary accidents. An open interoperability framework to support medical device data communication and device control is necessary to create accurate and completeelectronic health records, error-resistant medical device systems with safety interlocks, effective clinical decision support tools, and decrease the total cost of ownership of net-worked medical systems.

of health information will develop from the availability and mining of health information in curative, preventive and wellness activities across traditional and nontraditional ecosystem partic-ipants. The emergence of new businesses with new business models is already evident both in the United States and elsewhere. We can expect that additional innovation in business mod-els will form around electronic health records and other health information as consumers use this information in as yet unanticipated ways. There are major opportunities for secure IT infra-structure providers and new services in this field.

11:50 Ethical Challenges with Global Digital HealthcareJerry C. Collins, Ph.D., Research Associate Professor of Biomedical Engineering, Vanderbilt University Digital health is a promising, challenging frontier. Access to RFID, monitoring and databasing technology holds promise to the individual for more comprehensive medical knowledge,possibility of preventive and earlier interventions, and lower-cost health care, and in general freer, healthier, more carefree living. These technological advances also raise fears of lossof privacy, less free living, discovery of uninsurable disease and genetic conditions. Challenges to the emerging digital health industry involve educating the public and the health carecommunity about the benefits and risks of digital health and charting a course that maximizes the risk/benefit ratio in a way that generates enthusiasm and eventual adoption by publicand private sectors.

12:20 Reliability Assessment of Life Sustaining Medical ElectronicsAnthony Primavera, Ph.D., Senior Advisor, Advanced Process Development, Boston Scientific - Cardiac Rhythm ManagementWhile military, aerospace and automotive electronics must endure extreme end use conditions, few applications require a more robust overall product reliability than life sustaining med-ical products. Life sustaining medical / implantable devices have extremely high demands placed on them for very obvious reasons: They sustain a person’s life. Therefore, the prod-ucts must work consistently for long periods of time (in many cases > 10 years) without the benefit of downtime, battery recharging, or repair. In addition, the products should not causepatients adverse effects under any circumstances. While the implantable electronics device enjoys one of the most benign end use environments (37C)+/- 2 degrees, the overall relia-bility concerns are extremely high. Patients expect and deserve to lead a healthy and active life after receiving an implanted device. To further complicate matters, each patient providesa unique set of needs and requirements. Examples of unique needs includes product therapy, patient age, weight, activity level, living environment, and regional / country regulatoryrequirements. In an attempt to ensure a robust product, extreme reliability and process testing is required to prove long term reliability. This presentation discusses reliability require-ments and approaches to assess long term robustness of implantable medical devices.

12:50 Lunch on Your Own (Luncheon Workshop Sponsorship Available)

2:00 Mobile Device Selection and MethodologyKen Bobis, Ph.D., Chief Technology Officer and Director, Development & Software Engineering, Mayo Clinic The Arizona campus of Mayo Clinic is implementing Computerized Provider Order Entry (CPOE) in the summer of 2006. In preparation for this implementation, we have conducted aproject to select mobile devices for the hospital stall. This included a usability lab and field test, supported by user requirements and participant surveys. The project culminated in theselection of two mobile devices which will be offered to staff. Due to the rate of change, this decision will be reviewed periodically to ensure the best device for this critical health carefunction.

2:30 Medical Records in your Pocket: Integrating Personal Health Information with Electronic Medical Records

using an iPod®David Kibbe, M.D., M.B.A., Director, Center for Health Information Technology, American Academy of Family Physicians We will present a scenario where patients can better manage their own care and providers can eliminate unnecessary treatment by using PHR and EMR applications with standard fileformats and making medical information available for transport on a patients iPod. This example will demonstrate the need to adhere to standards for data interchange and push the lim-its of integrating (and gaining control over) patient information from the home to the office and beyond. Using accepted standards and readily available technology, we believe this inte-gration concept can improve patient compliance in the management of their own conditions and give practitioners more actionable information to improve patient care.
