Item Open Access TMA Bridge: Laying the Foundation for Citizen Centred eHealth(Presented at Med-e-tel 2005 in Luxembourg., 2005-04-06) Kass, JamesTrans-National Interoperability in eHealth: Facing the Challenges and Overcoming the Barriers: Presents a coherent picture of interoperability in eHealth, with examples across the various types of services, and analyses of the challenges and roadblocks to eHealth implementation, identifying the gaps, and concretely recommending the way ahead. Our approach will be trans-national because our aim is that the various systems now being developed in the different countries and regions can communicate with each other; so that the solutions offered will also have a broad trans-national market for applications; that the European citizen, patient, health practicianer may receive and provide services across national borders. The presentations will link the broad topics such as technical standards and semantics with certification, accreditation, organisation, reimbursement and even cultural differences. The underlying philosophy is that unless the problems are viewed holistically and the approaches coordinated openly and trans-nationally, there will be little progress in this exciting and challenging arena.Item Open Access eCare: "Providing eHealth for the Mobile Citizen"(Presented at Med-e-tel 2005 Conference in Luxembourg., 2005-04-06) Rossing, Niels Dr.Trans-National Interoperability in eHealth: Facing the Challenges and Overcoming the Barriers: Presents a coherent picture of interoperability in eHealth, with examples across the various types of services, and analyses of the challenges and roadblocks to eHealth implementation, identifying the gaps, and concretely recommending the way ahead.

The aim Doc@Hand is to support Healthcare professionals in this changing environment, by providing a set of IT tools that help reducing the time and associated costs to collect the information and knowledge required, and, more crucially, in making the best use of it for a more informed decision making (diagnoses, therapies, protocols).Item Open Access ARTEMIS: A Semantic Web Service-Bases P2P Infrastructure for the Interoperability of Medical Information Systems(Presented at Med-e-tel 2005 Conference in Luxembourg., 2005-04-06) Dogac, A.; Laleci, G.; Kabak, Y.; Bicer, V.; Unal, S.; Gulderen, O.This presentation will describe the architecture of the Artemis project, which exploits ontologies based on the domain knowledge exposed by the healthcare information standards through standard bodies like HL7, CEN TC251, ISO TC215 and GEHR. We use these standards for two purposes: first to describe the Web service functionality semantics, that is, the meaning associated with what a Web service does and secondly to describe the meaning associated with the messages or documents exchanged through Web services.Item Open Access Biopattern and Bioprofile Analysis in Support of E-Healthcare UK(Presented at Med-e-tel 2005 Conference in Luxembourg., 2005-04-06) Ifeachor, E.C.; Zervakis, M.; Lowe, D.; Biganzoli, E.; Fonseca, J.M.; Van Huffel, S.This presentation provides insight into biopattern and bioprofile analysis and future directions e.g. how information from different levels could support individualised healthcare. The ICT requirements to support this and the implications for health authorities will be highlighted.Item Open Access European Support to Biomedical Informatics Development: in Pursue of Genomic Medicine(Presented at Med-e-tel 2005 Conference in Luxembourg., 2005-04-06) Sanz, F.; Diaz, C.; Martin-Sanchez, F.; Molero, E.; Bonix, J.Analyses of the relationships and synergy between Bioinformatics (BI) and Medical Informatics (MI) show great potential for synergy.

The use of cheap mobile handheld devices such as Personal Digital Assistants (PDAs) and Smart Phones can provide many of the benefits of ICT to these areas. This type of device has already been successfully used to provide data collection services, improved health care delivery by monitoring sets of patients and providing knowledge management by providing decision making support and making large amounts of reference materials easily available.Item Open Access An Integrated Home Care System Increasing Quality of Life(Presented at Med-e-tel 2005 Conference in Luxembourg., 2005-04-06) Sacchetti, M.; Buccoloni, F.; Ferrari, P.eHealth Home Care Applications: The abstract describe a web based and integrated for vital parameters as a new model for patients able to increase the quality of life at home during the illness with the support for dietary control for the neurological pathology.Item Open Access Foetal Heart Rate Variability Index as a Parameter for Home Monitoring Networks(Presented at Med-e-tel 2005 Conference in Luxembourg., 2005-04-06) Kalakutski, L; Kalakutski, V.; Belyanin, F.eHealth Home Care Applications: Developed foetal heart rate monitoring system gives valuable diagnostic information about adaptation and compensational abilities of a foetus.
