What I like about Blockchain ….

Blockchain

  • Distributed ledger - avoiding central

management & storage

  • Interoperability - connectivity
  • Self-sovereignty - user control
  • Transparency & provenance -

capacity of parties to transact

  • Immutability - permanent, append only
  • Trust - confidence in the infrastructure,

privacy & governance

Blockchain

  • Recording of every transaction in a

time period

  • Recognition of value including non-

financial (e.g. education, information)

  • Grouped together in a block
  • Blocks ‘chained’ together in

chronological order

  • Reminiscent of the base pairs in a

DNA double helix

EPA No / Code: EPA1 – Anaesthesia 1 Title: Provide safe, efficient and effective anaesthesia and sedation for ASA I-II patient having low risk surgery with Level 4 supervision Description: This activity involves providing general anaesthesia, regional anaesthesia and sedation to low risk patients (ASA I-II) - including emergency patients - for minor or intermediate complexity surgery. This is a core anaesthetic skill. It involves integration of knowledge (pharmacology, physiology, anatomy), technical skills (airway management, intravascular access), and non- technical skills (patient and team communication, collaboration, professionalism).

Blockchain challenges

Blockchain

  • Trust (MyHR)
  • Explaining the principles of Blockchain
  • Gaining consensus across jurisdictions,

Colleges, universities, regulators

  • Going beyond Bitcoin
  • Challenging centralised authority
  • Challenging traditional vendors
  • Driving the standards agenda
  • Herding cats and facilitating flamingos!
