Study Notes

PICO Examples and Evidence Pyramid

PICO examples: kids with acute otitis media, 2-4 y/o
Evidence pyramid: from case reports/case series to randomized controlled trials (RCTs)

Levels of Evidence and Common Types of Clinical Questions

Levels of Evidence: GRADE framework (1-4)
Common types of clinical questions: therapy, prognosis, diagnosis, harm, cost

Barriers to Clinical Practice Guidelines (CPGs)

Practice setting, contrary opinion, sparse data, lack of local champions
CPGs may be too long, lack patient input, and incentives for adoption

Medical Imaging Informatics: study of imaging for patient care
PACs: Picture-archiving and communication systems for medical imaging
Advantages of digital imaging systems and barriers to transition to filmless radiology

Veterans Health Administration's Teleradiology Network

Launched in 2007 to provide radiology coverage to all regions
Required faster processors, higher capacity disk drives, and faster network speeds

Types of Digital Detectors and Disadvantages of PACS Systems

Types: Computed Radiography (CR) and Digital Radiography (DR)
Disadvantages: cost, legislation, interoperability, bandwidth limits, and viewing speed
