Analysis Report One - What’s Your Data Strategy

Author

Your Name Here

Executive Summary

Summarize your core themes, findings and recommendations into a concise, high-level overview tailored for busy healthcare executives.

Introduction

Summarize the core arguments, frameworks, and foundational concepts from the assigned data strategy reading.

The Healthcare Context

Analyze how the article (which is not healthcare focused) relates to a healthcare context. Include original research detailing how modern healthcare organizations are struggling with these issues.

Data Visualizations

Include the code and graphs for your two visualizations here (One offensive, defensive). You should describe your data and the visualization, together with an explanation of why the example is relevant for healthcare organizations.

Warning

One note of caution. I’m teaching you certain concepts this week. If your code doesn’t cover these concepts and consists of AI slop, you’ll receive a zero on this assignment.

Your queries can be loosly based on Practice queries, but they must extend or adapt the practice in interesting ways.

Visualization One - Offensive

--I've completed this for you as a placeholder. Replace this with your visualization.
--SQL code in this block

SELECT label, category
FROM D_items
WHERE category IN ("Hematology", "Chemistry", "Treatments")
#ggplot visualization in this block. I prettied this up with labels to show what is possible.
ggplot(data = myquery1,
       aes(x = category)) +
  geom_bar() +
  theme_minimal() +  # Cleans up the background grid lines
  labs(
    title = "Visualization showing relative frequencies of item categories",
    subtitle = "Data taken from D_items table within MIMIC-III",
    x = "Item Category",
    y = "Count of Items",
    caption = "Source: MIMIC-III Clinical Database v1.4"
  )

Visualization Two - Defensive

--Put your SQL code in this block
SELECT * FROM patients
LIMIT 2
#Put your ggplot visualization in this block

Recommendations for Industry

Translate your research and data findings into actionable, strategic recommendations for healthcare administrators looking to improve operational or defensive data strategies.

References

Getting your citations out of Google Scholar and into your references.bib file takes just a few clicks.

  1. Go to Google Scholar and search for the paper you want to cite (for example: “What’s your data strategy”).

  2. Look directly underneath the search result for the Cite button (it looks like a double quotation mark ”). Click it.

  3. A pop-up window will appear showing standard citation styles (APA, MLA, etc.). At the very bottom of that pop-up, click the link that says BibTeX.

  4. A new page or plain text block will open showing some bibtex code. Paste that block of text into your [references.bib] file.

If you have multiple sources, just keep pasting them one after another down the file. You don’t need commas between the different articles; just separate them with a blank line to keep it clean. You can then cite them like this (DalleMule and Davenport 2017) and they will automatically appear in the references section.
