Healthcare Blog
Learning Goal: I’m working on a management discussion question and need an explanation and answer to help me learn.
The purpose of this blog is to build a healthcare community among us; identify for each other key aspects of health care “current events” that we feel are important and worthy of discussion in this type of class; and provide one another with our expert analysis of a given trend or development in health care, including things we are learning about in this class. Postings and articles need to be relevant to the module we are in, or one we have already covered. You can: (a) post an article link to your blog post, introduce us to a reading you think is interesting, then briefly make a point about something in that article or that article’s major theme, related to readings in current or prior modules, to help educate us on its relevance; or (b) you can take something we are discussing in class for a given module and analyze it giving some thoughtful insights around its relevance. These posts do not have to be very long (100-200 words). Those responding to a student’s post can simply give a sentence or two assessing what the original student post made them think about more (but please make it more than “I liked your post!”). You must always try and bring in an idea from the current or a past module when doing your original blog post.
Read chapters 10 and 11 before doing this assignment
I will send you the example on how to do this and then you can reply to it as the requirements above.
The article you find should be related to chapters 10 and 11 in the textbook that I will send you later.

here is the student’s reply you can look at it and then provide a 70 words least reply to her
This article highlights an aspect of digital health that was not mentioned in the module, and I personally have never heard of being used in healthcare. Stanford Medicine has been using virtual reality to improve patient quality and outcomes in surgical procedures. For example, using virtual reality, patients can understand their procedure better by immersing themselves in their own anatomy, seeing a visual of their actual brain and where the tumor or issue is in their brain. Doctors say that patients have chosen Stanford over other medical centers for their procedures because they are much more comfortable after seeing exactly what their procedure is doing to their body, increasing their overall care experience and reducing stress.
In addition to improving patient experience, using virtual reality has improved planning and accuracy of operations for surgeons. For example, if they are removing a tumor, they can more clearly see how to avoid critical areas like the motor complex. It also helps avoid surprises in surgeries. One surgeon noticed an artery attached to the top of a patient’s aneurysm that would have been a disaster if found in surgery. Overall, virtual reality is a positive contribution to technology in healthcare.
