Purpose Statement:
The purpose of this thesis is to provide a systematic literature review of Newborn Screen system components, the newborn screen information flows and disaster planning considerations, which result in operational improvements during hurricanes. This thesis reviews the 2005 Hurricane Katrina as a pivotal weather event where health information was significantly disrupted.
Methods: This thesis followed a systematic literature review presenting analysis from those articles and data gathered to address the questions of how best to improve health information flows for the Newborn Screen, during disaster planning and utilizing modern technology available that being cloud computing. periodical literature, government documents and grey literature were contrasted and compared for content and bias.
Results:
The selected literature for review gave important insight as to the evaluation of health information for the Newborn Screen in times of disaster and emerging technologies so as to improve resulting health outcomes. The literature highlighted the importance of collaboration among health professionals, federal agencies, and public private partnerships. The adjunct use of the emerging technology of virtual cloud computing was also deemed an effective use of a health IT systems that would ensure effective delivery of Newborn Screen services in times of disaster.
Conclusion:
Virtual cloud computing is the modern technology solution to delivery of uninterrupted Newborn Screen services during hurricanes. This may be achieved via amplification of existing cloud structures in at risk regions through public private partnerships. Moreover, lessons learned from Japan, Australia and France indicate that virtual computing can be applied to the health care infrastructure for disaster planning or national health care the potential for greatly improved health outcomes.
