Each GWAS examines millions of unique single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) for their association to phenotypic traits and diseases. In the context of identifying complex associations in large patient cohorts, this type of study involves a vast amount of clinical and genetic data. In order to analyze these complex datasets efficiently we have developed the Genetic Output Analysis Tool (GOAT) to improve visualization and annotation of GWAS data. GOAT offers interactive search capabilities of GWAS results via specific queries to identify significant associations between multiple SNPs and phenotypes. GOAT was designed to be scalable and operate on top of \"Big Data\" technologies. The software interface offers researchers new visualization tools to help analyze this complex data. It is programmed in python and can be connected directly to any database using an Apache server. This paper outlines some of the GOAT's leading features and characteristics and compares them to existing open source GWAS visualization tools such as Locus Zoom and the Integrative Genomics Viewer (IGV). We also present future development plans for GOAT in order to provide researchers with improved performance, the visualization tools and ability to mine GWAS data for the most interesting and relevant information from their data.","PeriodicalId":146447,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 6th International Conference on Digital Health Conference","volume":"102 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-04-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116933606","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Problems with data capture and transcription exists, due to the challenges of dynamic documentation of patient, event and outcome variables as the code blue event unfolds. We hypothesize that an electronic version of code blue real-time data capture would lead to improved resuscitation data transcription, and enable clinicians to address deficiencies in quality of care. To this effect, we present the design of a tablet-based application and its use by 20 nurses at the Mayo Clinic hospital. The results showed that the nurses preferred the tablet application over the paper based form. Furthermore, a qualitative survey showed the clinicians perceived the electronic version to be more accurate and efficient than paper-based documentation, both of which are essential for an emergency code blue resuscitation procedure.","PeriodicalId":146447,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 6th International Conference on Digital Health Conference","volume":"17 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-04-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116814832","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
