Published: April 2011

As schools of allied health and health professions must increasingly conform to the research missions of their universities, positioning for faculty and funding resources will require creative collaborations among institutions. In 2004 Indiana University Purdue University Indianapolis and the Ohio State University collaborated to create the Indiana-Ohio Center for Traumatic Amputation Rehabilitation Research which received substantial funding through the Department of Defense to support a project of significant national importance. This article describes the initial vision of the project, the development of the organizational structure, and the research agenda that produced a unique model that is now generating substantial research data for dissemination. Also described are factors contributing to the success of the Center, including the emphasis on strategic partnerships and plans for sustainability and expansion of the Center as a national research enterprise.

Article Synopsis
  • Understanding the extent of subsurface drainage (tile-drain) is crucial for analyzing landscape responses to rainfall and soil management impacts on stream health and water quality.
  • A UNet machine-learning model was developed to detect tile-drain networks in satellite images without needing detailed data on soil or terrain, achieving high accuracy similar to expert manual tracing.
  • The model performed best in spring conditions, identifying tile drains with 93%-96% accuracy, thus helping to manage nutrient and sediment flow which is essential for addressing issues like harmful algal blooms.

Patient-Centered Data Home: A Path Towards National Interoperability.

Front Digit Health

July 2022

Center for Biomedical Informatics, Regenstrief Institute, Indianapolis, IN, United States.

Objective: National interoperability is an agenda that has gained momentum in health care. Although several attempts to reach national interoperability, an alerting system through interconnected network of Health Information Exchange (HIE) organizations, Patient-Centered Data Home (PCDH), has seen preliminary success. The aim was to characterize the PCDH initiative through the Indiana Health Information Exchange's participation in the Heartland Region Pilot, which includes HIEs in Indiana, Ohio, Michigan, Kentucky, and Tennessee.

Background: Antithrombin (AT) activity is reduced during cardiac operations with cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB), which is associated with adverse outcomes. Preoperative AT supplementation, to achieve >58% and <100% AT activity, may potentially reduce postoperative morbidity and mortality in cardiac operations with CPB. This prospective, multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study was designed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of preoperative treatment with AT supplementation in patients at risk for low AT activity after undergoing cardiac surgery with CPB.
