Final Program

WEDNESDAY • MAY 18 337
Objectives
At the conclusion of this session, the participant will be able to:
• understand and learn the rationale of gene therapy, stem cell treatment and
phenotyping of malignant effusion patients;
• describe the interactions between bacteria and the pleura, and its
therapeutic potentials;
• learn new technologies being applied in pleural diagnosis and management;
This symposium will provide learners with up to date information and evidence
on several exciting developments in translational research of pleural diseases
which have impacted clinical care, or are likely to do so in the future. The
session will provide leading translational research on pleural disease, including
pleural malignancy and infection, and novel investigative technologies. The
session will cover cutting edge approaches of using stem cell therapy in the
pleura and the role of mesothelial cells in lung fibrosis.

Objectives
At the conclusion of this session, the participant will be able to:
• understand how apps may be developed and used to improve clinical
research and bedside critical care;
• describe how real-time analytics can be leveraged to improve critical care
delivery;
• understand how a re-engineered electronic health records system will
improve the delivery of critical care.
Silicon Valley companies like Google, Apple, and Uber create simple tech
solutions to enhance our everyday lives. These innovations also have pertinent
applications in critical care, and this session will detail technological solutions that
can enhance clinical research and care for patients with critical illness. Examples
highlighted in the session will include developing apps to improve patient care
tasks, crowd-sourcing research communities for solutions to complex problems in
critical care, gathering data from wearable devices to monitor critical illness,
utilizing real-time analytics to identify critical illness and improve hospital
efficiency, and re-engineering EHR’s to improve bedside critical care.
