Extra, Extra - Washing hands can save lives…..
“The thing that kills women with [puerperal fever]…is you doctors that carry deadly microbes from sick women to healthy ones.” Semmelweis, 1849

Final Results: System protected status quo
1848: Carl Edvard Marius Levy “with due respect for the cleanliness of the Viennese students, it seems improbable that enough infective matter or vapor could be secluded around the fingernails to kill a patient… his opinions are not clear enough and his findings not exact enough to qualify as scientifically founded.”
1849: Employment terminated in Vienna 1850-1860: Handwashing introduced briefly in other sites 1861: Publishes The Etiology, Concept and Prophylaxis of Childbed
Fever 1862: Open letter to critics “irresponsible murderers and
ignoramuses”. 1865: Dies in mental institution (age 47). Treated with castor oil, cold
water, straight jacket, beaten from escape attempts. Cause of death – pyemia infection caused by beatings.

To Err is Human
At least 44,000 people, and perhaps as many as 98,000 people, die in hospitals each year as a result of medical errors that could have been prevented, according to estimates from two major studies.

To Err is Human
Despite finding small improvements at the margins—fewer patients dying from accidental injection of potassium chloride, reduced infections in hospitals due to tightened infection control procedures—it is harder to see the overall, national impact, Leape and Berwick say. "[T]he groundwork for improving safety has been laid in these past five years but progress is frustratingly slow,"
Institute of Medicine Oct. 2005

To Err is Human
A disturbing report released recently by (AHRQ), found measurable improvement in fewer than half of the 38 patient safety measures examined. Research shows it takes 17 years before evidence-based practices are incorporated into widespread clinical use.

Challenges in healthcare IT and research
• How can we run ad-hoc “scurvy” comparative effectiveness experiments in growing EHR systems?
• Evidence must be an open process. Inquiry must be a central part of practice in translational and personalized medicine concepts.
• Rapid healthcare system changes will harm patients. How will we know?
• Current expenditures for research are ~$20-30Billion and it results in a pipeline of 30 new drugs per year… many that are similar.
• Translation of evidence to practice is lacking.
Something needs to change!

WWDBD - What would Dries Butaert do?
There is no quick rich formula: Build a user conference from in 40 people 2005 to 3,000 in 2010. Have many meet-ups. Be patient.
Hurray for growing pains: Funding comes if you are serving the community and they will support you as you grow out of your current capability.
Build an architecture for evolution: Allow external groups to be able to submit.
Provide the right tools: Processes and tools. Replace planning with co-ordination.
Make money but pay with trust: The open source currency is trust.
Leadership trumps management: Make everyone a respected leader and follower
Six Open Source Secrets from Dries…..(summary)

Infrastructure state: Early adoption…
• Strengths Cost factors highly attractive if alternative not in use Open approach allows sharing within open projects Support contracts/company success aids in adoption Capabilities often equal or better in open tools Trust erosion from commercial vendors Rapid innovation cycles Community engagement in “vertical frameworks” e.g. Mirth
• Challenges Limited trust in open source at enterprise/CIO level today Commercial databases most common in open projects Embedding (e.g. SSIS) offer integrated non-open approach Frequent infrastructure vendor FUD – “It’ll never work!” Confusion on “why do I pay” for commercial support Splits – Pentaho & Talend shops divide open community Feature gap resistance/limitations

i2b2 History
1999 RPDR initially established at Partners
2000-2004 RPDR and tool evolution at Partners
2004 i2b2 grant to “port RPDR” as an open source framework
2006 First beta release of i2b2
2008 Strong adoption
2009 De-facto CTSA standard CRDW

Good for Business (Grants)
Seven of twelve sites were planning a data warehouse (4 already had data warehouses – Columbia, Duke, Rockefeller and Pitt)
GO grants with i2b2 = 5 CTSA Supplementals, Prospect, etc.

Top 10 list for i2b2’s open source success
1. Strong leadership Zak/Shawn/Suzanne (Harvard) 2. CTSA grant cycles create demand 3. Community support/dialog – AUG & outreach 4. NCBC support grant drivers 5. Software development execution (Shawn Murphy) 6. Commercial implementation and pharma partnership 7. Not force a specific ontology/way of working 8. SHRINE federation spreads/standardizes install needs 9. Simplicity “cohort” core – like Twitter or Google 10. Proven prior success with RPDR in use

39
Gap: Why are there few to no “external commits”?
• Grant funding/credit incentives: innovation vs. co-ordination • Don’t expose too soon approach • Can the community contribute? • Legacy of PHI/development framework • TRUST • Budget allocation • Maturity
What happens when funded research and development ends?
![Page 40: HealthcareOpenSource2](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022052604/568bf1371a28ab893392619e/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
40
Gaps: Many sites are “early/mid-adoption”
Why?
• Governance challenges: unclear legislation/interpretation
• Many groups that can say “no” during process
• Budget cuts/economic impacts on projects
• Interference from Meaningful Use & ACO initiatives
• Changing cultures is harder than adding tools
• Still immature software/incomplete
• Implementations are complex, require data
• Trust among parties is still limited
![Page 41: HealthcareOpenSource2](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022052604/568bf1371a28ab893392619e/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
41
Lessons learned to date
• Be patient with academic projects.
• Building Trust requires demonstrating delivery not talk
• Just make it work… the rewards come later
• Avoid splintering projects BUT keep forwards rapidly
• Academic open source projects naturally oversell themselves which create expectation problems
• Open source culture in healthcare/academia is unique and evolving (desire to control is embedded)
![Page 42: HealthcareOpenSource2](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022052604/568bf1371a28ab893392619e/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)

Lessons learned to date…
• Pharma is in the science business and will move to open frameworks if provided
• Strong support is available for a new strategy • Progressive leadership is critical (e.g. E. Perakslis J&J) • Openness with clinical research data is an integrated
problem • Early challenges with commercial conflicts • Tool/Data adoption will be a challenge • Be patient…..

Openness -> Adoption -> Impact
• Wikipedia vs. printed encyclopedia • Proprietary or pure open tools struggle for adoption in
AMCs vs. REDCap • Consortium model

51
Why is REDCap successful?
1. Leadership – Paul Harris & Vanderbilt 2. Simple core capability 3. CTSA standards conversion 4. CTSA support for Vanderbilt/incentives 5. Engineering execution 6. Strong community engagement (calls/etc.) 7. Consortium commits to community development 8. Rapid implementation (hacktivation)

52
REDCap challenges
• Not open to non-academics • Highly controlled (e.g. no ports to commercial DBs) • Difficult to mix models (open and “academic consortium”) • Success of model discourages open source • EDC in regulated environments (Pharma?) • Needs to be paired with other EDC options
