Dr Anoop D.听Shah,听a consultant in听clinical pharmacology and general medicine working at听最准的六合彩论坛 Hospitals,听has been awarded a 3-year听postdoctoral fellowship from The Healthcare Improvement Studies Institute.

Dr Anoop Shah
Dr Shah's project aims to听improve the way that diagnoses are recorded in electronic health records.听Medical diagnoses听are currently not recorded in a structured way in NHS patient records, with important details hidden in text which is difficult to search. More accurate, detailed records will be better for individual care, and will also enable data to be pooled effectively for research to improve healthcare.

The project will involve working with听doctors and patients to design better 'information models', ways to听organise information in a meaningful way, guided by computerised analysis of existing text in electronic听health records. The information models will be tested in clinics to ensure听they are usable and useful, in order to define a听standard that can be听put in place throughout the NHS. This听study will focus on patients with heart failure, a common and serious condition in which the heart does not pump blood around the body well enough, but the听methods will be published so they can be applied to听other diseases in the future.
