Hospital digitisation projects often fail quietly at the interface layer: devices produce data, middleware stores it, and clinicians still re-type values into the chart. For science and health-technology audiences, the interesting question is architecture—what the patient record is allowed to be the system of record for. Middleware versus clinical timeline Normalising HL7 or ASTM feeds is…

Technical debt is often dismissed as a “technical problem” that developers need to solve. But the reality is that technical debt is a business problem with real financial impact. Poor code quality, architectural shortcuts, and accumulated technical debt slow development velocity, increase maintenance costs, and limit an organisation’s ability to respond to market opportunities. When…
