The ICIMTH series of annual conferences has reached the 20th International Conference on Informatics, Management, and Technology in Healthcare. The organizing committee announces the ICIMTH 2022 Conference amidst the Covid-19 pandemic. It will be, unfortunately, the third annual Conference of the series to be organized as a Virtual event. If the situation improves rapidly in the next 2 months, we will be very happy to have the conference as a face-to-face event as well as an eConference (hybrid event). Now it is very difficult to predict. We will update you, accordingly.

The ICIMTH 2022 invites you to submit full papers, short communication papers, posters, panels, workshops, demonstrations, and tutorials. As we need to synchronize the event with the publication of the proceedings, the deadline for submissions for full papers, short papers, and posters will be strictly applied. The accepted contributions will be published by IOS Press in the SHTI series indexed in Medline/PubMed. Following the tradition of the last four years, and the recommendation applied in both IMIA and EFMI events, the publication of the proceeding by IOS Press will be available as Open Access to allow the dissemination and increase the citation and impact of your publications.

Most patients have their blood pressure taken during every doctor visit. Yet, this simple physiologic vital sign measurement is often performed incorrectly. Too often, the results are artificially elevated, which can lead to less-than-optimal clinical management for high-risk groups. In addition, there are significant financial consequences to poorly performed blood pressure management. This webinar will explore the cascading impact from inaccurate point-of-care blood pressure attainment and provide insight into simple corrective measures to achieve better clinical outcomes. Since healthcare reimbursements are moving more to a value-based model, the speakers will also explore the economic impact of accurate point-of-care BP measurement. 

This 60-minute webinar will provide you with the knowledge to: 

• Identify the most common sources of error within blood pressure attainment and the degree to which they impact the accuracy of values
• Discuss how improper blood pressure technique can lead to improper clinical management and drive poor performance on value-based care payment incentives
• Describe best clinical practices for point-of-care blood pressure measurement and how implementation will improve outcomes and financial performance
