Over the next four weeks, you will review and analyze a pre-intervention element
Over the next four weeks, you will review and analyze a pre-intervention elementary school asthma database from a community that has four elementary schools. Each week, you will write a short paper describing the role of an informatician in regard to data capture and use within the Public Health Information Management Systems (PHIS) and Public Health Information Network (PHIN). You will explore the data elements, database technologies, analytics, and processes used by an informatician including data capture, scrubbing, coding, warehousing, managing, and reporting of public health information. In Week 5, you will complete a comprehensive term paper and PowerPoint presentation that demonstrates a public health needs assessment using your primary asthma source data. Your paper and presentation should show why an asthma prevention intervention program is needed in the selected community and summarize how you came to your conclusions. The objective of this five-week project is for you to demonstrate the processes used in public health informatics through its application. You will begin your course project by explaining how data is collected, scrubbed, coded, and stored within the PHIS. You will then explain how data is organized in databases, using the asthma data provided below. You will describe the data elements in the spreadsheet and the processes of an informatician by answering the questions below. I WILL download the asthma data for 2013. Note: Use this Excel spreadsheet throughout the course to complete your weekly data analyses and prepare your written assignments as they relate to public health informatics. Your weekly assignments will provide data to support your final term paper to be submitted in Week 5. Based on the data in the spreadsheet, prepare a 3–4-page paper addressing the following questions: Introduction: How is information collected, organized, scrubbed, coded, and entered into the PHIS? Asthma Database Analyses: Describe the structural organization of your database. What is the survey population description? Define pre-intervention Define a database record. How many records are in your database? Define a database field. How many fields are in your database? Define a database field data definition (DD). What is an example in this database of a DD? Based on the data collected, what is the purpose and potential use of this asthma survey data? Summary: From the perspective of an informatician, discuss the asthma database’s key structural components, its organization, and potential uses. Submission Details: Give reasons and examples in support of your responses. Cite all sources using APA format Submit a 3–4-page paper in a Microsoft Word document
