Last thread of #CCIOHomeSchool before the weekend and lets try to tackle the existential question of what a CCIO is and does
This is important not just for our own sanity (!) but because without there being a clear understanding of the role inside and outside of the #DigitalHealth community, then the calls for these roles to be recognised as important in organisations will fall flat
Staff at all levels will broadly be able to describe what the Medical and Nursing Directors do. I don't think the same is true for CCIO type roles
Expect to be corrected quite a lot here for day 3 of #CcioHomeSchool when dipping into the differences between algorithms and AI.
Because AI will fix everything, won't it... #disrupt :-)

Key difference here as I can understand is algorithms are fixed (following set rules and processes) whereas AI can adapt / evolve based on learned inputs
Clinical examples of algorithms in routine practice are 10 a penny... Well's score, qSOFR, CHADS2VASC and so on. Lots of excitement and noise about AI in clinical imaging (paging @rijan44), but far fewer established use cases
#CCIOHomeSchool day 2... Lets have a think about #digitalconsent. Why would we do this?
- legibility
- reducing the variation in information provided and recorded
- avoiding delays in care due to loss of documents
Anything else?

The key policy document here is probably everybody's favourite bedtime read, the Health and Social Care Act which recognised expressed, verbal and written forms of consent

Interestingly there are only limited examples of where written consent is legally required e.g. fertility treatment. However this is seem as best practice where interventions are complex, carry significant risk / consequence or include aspects not related to direct care
