Medical profession General Practitionner Hospitals Specialists Para-medics From “cards” to servers Large nationwide projects
28
Medical profession General Practitionner Electronic health record Medication databases Communication of lab results Communication with GP's (group practice/guard) Communication with hospitals Communication with specialists
29
Medical profession Hospitals patient “administration” communication with health insurance bodies technology oriented departments local network(s) communication with referring GP's communication with patients??? teamwork: who can access what?
30
Medical profession Specialists Very different needs Common: “patient administration” Financial administration + reporting Mini-clinics and group practices
31
Medical profession Para-medics, health workers “at large” Tele-follow-up of patients Access to at least part of medical record Nursing record Physical therapist's record
32
Medical profession From “cards” to servers? Social security card (national, European) Diabetes card Minimal health record -> summary health record Big brother : example in Spain Centralized vs. distributed health records
33
Medical profession Nationwide projects (amongst many others) Denmark: electronic prescription Belgium: “kruispuntbank sociale zekerheid” Electronic passport Telematics commission – labeling of her UK: masterplan for NHS
34
Medical profession Nationwide projects (amongst many others) Hygeia Crete
35
Medical profession Nationwide projects (amongst many others) Keneya Blown (vestibule de la santė) Mali
36
Schools/universities E-learning Computer literacy E-health programs Master after master “management of health data” Need for an European master program in eHealth?
37
Standards bodies Internet Society (IETF) WWW Consortium CEN HL7 IEEE
38
Where do we come from? Where do we go to? Trends... Basic connectivity New protocols? New models? Client-server Peer-to-peer Distributed systems Huge parallelism (grid?)
39
Patients/public Finally widely available to the public at large Remote diagnosis New medication announcements Distance pharmacy Distance education/certification Accurate medical information and councelling
40
Patients/public Useful health tricks
41
Patients/public Distance pharmacy
42
Patients/public New medication:
43
Patients/public Distance education/certification: effortless diploma
44
Patients/public Finally widely available to the public at large missing: “super portal” combining all of these!
45
Patients/public Informative sites: patients are most concerned!
46
Conclusions Medical Internet applications become established Most required technologies are available Diversity of medical systems Quality labels and interoperability Privacy Few completely new ideas Complex application “standards” Missing level between research and deployment Political drive exists but for the right motives?
