An Information Capture and Processing Environment for Chronic Patients in the Information Society

Obiettivo

Our goal is to develop an information environment for the care of chronic patients as an efficient alternative to conventional institutional care, that will improve their quality of life while reducing the huge healthcare costs in the European Union and getting an optimum benefit of information systems technology and culture.
The information environment will consists of:
1) Personal, safe, friendly and reliable home-based health monitoring systems, providing unrestrained non-intrusive connectivity to the patient.
2) Information systems in open communication platforms, adapted to the wide heterogeneity of user needs and profiles, oriented to case management, teleconsultation, advising, rehabilitation and patient training.
3) Support systems for diagnostic/therapeutic decision making; for clinical guidelines and protocol and for services quality assessment.
The application to other scenarios (acute, terminal patients, elderly, healthy) is emphasised. The chronic care platform proposed will facilitate the outsourcing of services, and thus the growth, of new health-related industries.

Objectives:
The objective of this proposal is to develop a new European model for the care of chronic patients, based on an integrated information technology environment, that consist of:
1.) Safe, friendly and reliable personal home-based health monitoring systems, providing unrestrained non-intrusive connectivity to the patient with efficient communication packaging. They will include sensors and intelligent devices for data handling, decision making and patient status assessment.
2.) Systems adapted to the wide heterogeneity of users needs and profiles, based on available infrastructure, that will allow the access to information for case management, teleconsultation, advising, rehabilitation and patient training programmes.
3.) Tools and systems, connectable to already available health information systems, to support the daily work of service providers and managers: diagnostic/therapeutic decision making, clinical guidelines and protocols, and quality assessment.

Work description:
The project starts from the evidence that home care is an efficient alternative to conventional institutional care for chronic patients. To improve quality of life and reduce costs, we propose an innovative information environment based on two elements: a chronic care management network (the entry point to any requirement for health resources) and a patient monitoring environment (to capture and process at home all relevant information). The results will be evaluated in three pilots focused on highly prevalent chronic disorders: cardio-vascular, neurologic and respiratory, the top three causes of mortality by 2020. This chronic care model can be also extended to other scenarios like acute patients or even in a healthy environment, for prevention. The resulting platform will facilitate the outsourcing of HC services, thus will contribute to the growth of health-related new business and industries

Milestones:
Technological results:
1) Personal home-based health monitoring system: sensors and devices for data handling, decision making, patient assessment; unrestrained non-intrusive connectivity to the patient;
2) Chronic care management network for case management, teleconsultation, rehabilitation and patient training;
3) Supporting systems for diagnostic/therapeutic decision making, practice guidelines/protocol and quality assessment.
Other: scientifically validated guides for IS chronic care model.
