As a subcontractor for KaiHonua, 4S-Silversword Software and Services, LLC provided data architecture and analytics support to strengthen the vision registry’s functionality and optimize its analytical capabilities. The team implemented advanced statistical analysis, clinical research methodologies, and sophisticated data modeling techniques to improve tracking of ocular injuries, patient flow, and risk factors for vision-related conditions.
One key innovation was the development of a classification model that allowed multiple perspectives from clinicians to overlay data, eliminating the need for a single authoritative classification. This approach enabled medical professionals to quickly adopt different classification models, improving flexibility and responsiveness in research and clinical analysis.
To address challenges in retrospective analysis, the team created "potential indicators" that could compensate for missing diagnosis codes. This methodology assigned patients a probability of having specific medical conditions based on available data, reducing false positives and negatives while providing a more accurate representation of patient health trends. The firm’s technological expertise, including proficiency in SAS, R, SQL Server, PowerBI, Excel, Tableau, and OpenText, allowed for seamless data processing, classification, and visualization, ensuring stakeholders had access to insightful and reliable analytics.
