Phase 2
Princess Alexandra Hospital offers data for medication harm
research
A research project from the University of Queensland School of Pharmacy has started collaborating with the Princess Alexandra Hospital to use digital technologies in reducing rehospitalisation cases due to medication harm.
Researcher Dr Nazanin Ghahreman-Falconer noted that in Queensland alone, up to a quarter of adult patients are being re-admitted to hospital within 28 days, further placing a burden on an already overwhelmed health system.
Her research seeks to use predictive modelling in preventing rehospitalisation after a heart attack. Digital tools will be developed to identify cardiac patients at the most risk of being readmitted to the hospital due to medication harm.
Based on a media release, the first phase of the project involves a consultation with stakeholders and the development of a medication management and support toolkit for discharged patients. Following this, the second phase involves using AI and PAH's data to identify patients at risk of medication harm.

Te Rūnanga o Toa Rangatira moves health services to Noted
Iwi authority Te Rūnanga o Toa Rangatira is moving most of its health and wellbeing services to the client management system Noted.

"Mauri Ora is our holistic approach to enabling wellbeing. It doesn’t just make it easier for whānau to access and navigate our services, but also reduces the burden on our team from disconnected services and systems that are cumbersome and outdated," CEO Helmut Modlik explained.
