How I Use Self-Collected Data to Change the Power Dynamic in My Clinical Practice
“The power and the magic is at the intersection of expertise on the part of the clinician, family, and child.” — Amy Edgar
Amy Edgar founded a clinical practice in Allentown, Pennsylvania, that treats over 2,500 children and families each year. She collects traditional clinical data about her patients, but the magic happens when her data meets the data they collect about themselves. With permission from patients and families, Amy shares some of their self-tracking stories — about tracking sleep, tracking menstruation, and tracking activity — and talks about how sharing data can shift the dynamic in clinical relationships away from mere treatment and toward a more powerful co-creation of health.
