In today’s episode, you will meet Hammad Siddiqui. There are so many variabilities in healthcare. The model can take different inputs to provide outputs specific to practice. It could be super simple, or it could be super complex.Įvery doctor obeys the same rule of queueing. You can build your nuance into your simulation model. It is hard to build the data set in simulation.Įach sensor is uniquely identified to them when a patient comes in. It is simpler to get started on something simple. You have to understand the laws of nature that govern that specific niche.Ī standard practice doesn't do simulation. Before Apprentice, he worked as an Attending Physician at Brigham and Women's Hospital and as a Clinical Fellow and Instructor of Medicine at Harvard Medical School. Rajiv Sivendran is the Co-Founder and CEO at Apprentice Health, a software that helps to deliver exceptional care by improving the use of their valuable resource - clinical time and space. There are many potential uses of simulations, and this conversation is an excellent start to learn about it and how you can use it in your clinic or hospital, so tune in! We also cover the marketing, ROI side of simulation, and more. Rajiv provides powerful examples of simulations and where they can and cannot be successful. We hyper-focus on the power of the simulation approach and where it is heading. He also discusses queueing theory, starting simulations in healthcare, the different variables involved, and ways to collect the healthcare data needed for the simulation. Rajiv explains simulations and modeling, and links that to resource allocation and logistics in healthcare. Rajiv is driven by the desire to solve problems in healthcare, and the idea for his company started when he was doing his MBA at Harvard. He is an expert in the simulation space and optimization of resources. Rajiv Sivendran, Co-Founder and CEO at Apprentice Health. In this episode, we are privileged to host the fantastic Dr. Tune in as Nthabeleng shares: when she first started experiencing symptoms of EDS, and how she was diagnosed how she struggled with doctors who didn’t understand her diagnosis and treatment how her constellation of symptoms finally made sense when she discovered EDS in her research her experience in a psychiatric hospital, which further proved her diagnosis was not in her head the degree to which her organs are involved in her EDS type how her diagnosis has impacted her relationships how and why she founded RDLA how disability has transformed her presence in the world how you can support RDLA’s efforts her advice for others living with invisible disability As an activist and advocate for EDS and other rare diseases, Nthabeleng has found ways to cope with her diagnosis despite the hardships she faces - and is fueled by helping others live as comfortably and fully as possible with rare disease. In 2020, this led to the creation of the Rare Diseases African Alliance, which also includes the Rare Diseases Namibian Alliance. In 2017, she founded Rare Diseases Lesotho Association (RDLA) in order to serve others living with rare disease in her corner of the world - by raising awareness, providing care and education services, and bringing those who feel alone into community. A spinal specialist informed her that EDS had saved her life: her joints were so hypermobile, the impact hadn’t shattered her spinal cord…and while she spent close to a year in rehabilitation, she can walk again today. In 2014, she was in an accident in which she sustained over 10 broken bones down her spine, among other injuries. She found herself arguing with doctors every time she had contact with the medical system, as most couldn’t admit the limit of their own skills and knowledge. While her diagnosis was eventually confirmed, none of the practitioners in her region knew what EDS was - or how to treat it. So, she began her own research…and stumbled upon Ehlers-Danlos syndrome (EDS). These symptoms persisted through her admittance to university, where test after test came back inconclusive. At the age of 12, she began to experience chronic pain and subluxation of her joints, in addition to extreme skin elasticity, GI and lung issues, and anapyhlaxis. Nthabeleng Ramoeli was born in the small southern African country of Lesotho.
