"In emergency medicine.... We don’t have many formal processes for real-time, peer decision support. Providing it virtually is really smart. I could see this evolving to a state that connects clinicians at scale," says @agarwalEM. Read more from @PennLDI ⬇️

A new study from Damon Centola (@DamonCentola) found that physicians participating in an information-sharing network improved their diagnostic accuracy.

He and Anish Agarwal (@agarwalEM) discuss the study and its application in real-world practice here: https://t.co/QtLyhC8sAd

Well said. And understanding how people express loneliness can inform how we address it. Research by @sharathguntuku and colleagues has looked into such expressions on social media –

Loneliness doesn't only hurt mental health. It's also a risk factor for physical health.

90 studies, 2.2M people: loneliness and social isolation predict mortality from cancer and all causes, even after controlling for health conditions.

Human connection is vital to well-being.

Today @theNASEM I shared a bit of what we’ve discovered related to opioid disposal.

Make it:

1) easy
2) simple
3) available
4) no (or low) cost

"If and when AI helps us free up time for clinicians, we should give that time back to clinicians,” says CDH deputy director @agarwalEM. “We should resist the urge to fill that time with more work."

ICYMI: Analyzing tweets by emergency med docs, @agarwalEM, @sharathguntuku et al. detected negative shifts in their well-being during the pandemic. The study suggests social media could be useful as a monitoring tool in efforts to fight #burnout. https://t.co/uFQ0Tlsm2u

.@sharathguntuku's team has been doing fascinating work building translational #AI that measure and predict aspects of health (incl. #MentalHealth, hospital visits, COVID symptom identification) based on social media interactions. #DataScience @UPennIBI

How can AI-based methods inform social listening applications during #PublicHealth crises? @sharathguntuku (@CIS_Penn+@PennMedCDH) will address using #BigData for social good in this week's #Biomedical Data Science Seminar (5/10, 4PM) hosted by @UPennIBI. https://t.co/pNRY8V0OuC

[Penn Med CDH @PennMedCDH]

Behavioral flags in the EHR are meant to promote workplace safety. A study by @agarwalEM & colleagues finds that emergency dept. nurses hold varying opinions on their utility and importance.

[Anish Agarwal @agarwalEM]

There is an underexplored intersection of workplace violence in health care, patient equity, and how we respond. Learning with intentional focus on ways to keep our teams safe by listening is important.

We sat down with ER nurses to talk patient flags

Gamification has become a popular engagement tactic in health initiatives, but @Nichol_Bradford makes the point: "[Most people] think that gamification is leaderboards and high scores and medals. But a real game is play and community and narrative." https://t.co/wZQ4LQBs2s
