The ability to monitor patients from a distance, using electronic devices to record and send measurements of patients' vital signs, has been a mainstay in the use of medical technology for years. But the needs and expectations of patients with chronic conditions and of healthcare professionals who care for those patients have changed considerably since remote patient monitoring devices were first introduced.
By Daniel Castro, The Information Technology and Innovation Foundation (ITIF).
An Oracle White Paper.
How innovations in eHealth can improve medical care, increase efficiency, and create new jobs.
This report provides an assessment of the main drivers, obstacles and uncertainties surrounding the deployment of RFID in healthcare in Europe. It identifies the most promising RFID applications in the healthcare delivery domain by reviewing the costs and benefits, as far as possible, and assessing enablers and obstacles to full deployment of RFID. Finally, the report provides an evaluation of the current market for RFID in healthcare in Europe and its future potential.
The present White Paper describes the legal framework conditions and technical requirements for the creation of electronic time stamps and also examines the differences between qualified and non-qualified time stamps, for differentiation purposes termed "other time stamps" below.
This special issue reflects the diversity of people involved in developing eHealth and integrating it to healthcare policies. Mobilising all these people and coordinating their actions, at a regional, national and European level, is essential in order for eHealth to realise its potential. The introduction of ITCs in the healthcare field is giving rise to many expectations and questions which will be discussed in this issue.
Over the past 150 years, the advancements in medicine, public health and the delivery of care have been nothing short of breathtaking. We routinely achieve feats that were virtually unthinkable even a generation ago. But one facet persists: paper. We have yet to find a way to move beyond paper record keeping. However, electronic prescribing (eprescribing) is a technology whose time has come.
Around the world, healthcare delivery systems are increasingly focused on creating regional and national Electronic Health Records (EHR). The sharing of clinical information increases the accessibility of important health information, can reduce costs through elimination of duplicate tests and prescriptions, and most importantly, improves the quality of care. The availability of such information in emergency situations can literally save lives.
This Vision Paper is a creative synthesis of many ambitious ideas about possible developments in the field of telehealth. These imaginative glimpses of telehealth futures, crafted by some of the leading health and technology experts in the field, project a fascinating new world of personal health possibilities that could become very real within the next few years.
