Deals with the computer analysis of the blood pressure signal from a research and clinical point of view. An explanation is given of the state of the art and future trends in the field are identified. Coverage includes methodological aspects and physiological and mathematical modelling.
This work covers the challenges facing the widespread implementation of information technology, possible solutions to economic, structural, cultural, and institutional barriers in the use of these technologies.
This text provides information and scientific ideas with an emphasis on three-dimensional and morphological aspects of spine and trunk assymetry, improved understanding of mechanisms underlying the atiology, pathomechanism, and treatment of spinal deformity.
This text contains the results of current research into different aspects of spine deformities, such as the etiology, pathogenesis, pathomechanism, three-dimensional imaging of the back, the biomechanics and kinematics of the normal and deformed spine and the treatment of these conditions.
This publication provides a forum for projects in the medical, biological and biomedical domains as well as for grid projects that seek to integrate these. The overall objective is to reinforce and promote the awareness of the deployment of grid technology in health. The emphasis is on results of current grid projects in health care. This will show in the outcome of field tests and will identify deployment strategies for prototype applications in health care. In addition, outstanding problem areas and technological challenges are identified and new solutions to these issues are proposed.From Grid to Healthgrid is divided in four themes:- Knowledge and Data Management- Deployments of Grids in Health- Current Projects and- Ethical, Legal, Social and Security Issues.The papers show that healthgrid has matured beyond its original projects and is now tackling some difficult problems that seemed intractable up till two years ago.
Intends to examine the focus and aims that drive rehabilitation intervention and technology development. This book addresses the questions of what research is taking place to develop rehabilitation, applied technology and how we have been able to modify and measure responses in both healthy and clinical populations using these technologies.
Although this thesaurus has its roots in an historical collection at the University of Missouri-Columbia where literature on health care informatics has been collected, the rapidly evolving nature of the field is reflected in the use of recent literature as the source for the data.
Discusses the clinical principles, human factors and technology issues associated with the use of virtual reality for assessment and treatement in neuro-psycho-physiology. The chapters are contributed by researchers who have pioneered the ideas and technology associated with this field.
This collection of 28 papers is launched by the European Telematics Applications Project HANSA, with support of the GMDS WG Hospital Information Systems and the GMDS FA Medical Informatics. Papers deal with architectural concepts, models and developments for hospital information systems.
This text discusses the use of interactive technology - such as robotics, computer vision, simulation and artificial intelligence - in health care. Such technology may influence the future of medical and surgical practice by improving access, quality and continuity of care while reducing costs.
Although we can recognize further progress in educating health and a considerable number of educational programs for health informatics / medical informatics specialists have been set up, there is still a need to enhance these educational activities world wide, considering global developments as well as new curricular concepts.
Human body and the world in which it functions is a changing complex adaptive system. We are able to collect data about it, but the challenge is to infer local dynamics from that data. Intelligent Caring Biomechatronic Creatures and Healthmaticians have a better chance of inferring the dynamics that needs to be understood than human physicians.
An overview of the current standing of the work in Health Informatics Standardization worldwide. The contributions cover topics such as models, the electronic Health Care record, coding systems, messaging, open systems, health cards, imaging communication with medical devices and data protection.
Divided into four parts, this book contains a number of articles that cover mathematical models of heart, arterial tree, baroreceptor control and applications for simulators. It includes historical reviews on the heart, arterial tree and baroreceptors. The models presented are all based on fundamental physiological principles.
This volume reports the achievements of Telenurse. Telenurse is a project within the R&TD programme of the EU dedicated to promoting the use of the International Classification for Nursing Practice as a common language for nursing in Europe.
Part of a series of "Instructional Course Lectures" ("ICL") books of the International Society On Scoliosis Orthopaedic and Rehabilitation Treatment (SOSORT). this first book helps reader find the SOSORT statutes and become familiar with the aims of the creation of this society.
This volume covers the proceedings of the 2nd international symposium on three-dimensional scoliotic deformities. It covers topics such as: 3-D acquisition; reconstruction and modelling techniques; 3-D biomechanical analysis; and 3-D treatment of scoliosis.
This text provides rationales for virtual reality's applicability in clinical psychology. It reviews the relevant literature regarding theoretical and pragmatic issues for these applications, and provides descriptions of ongoing work developed world-wide.
Starts with a description of telematics in primary healthcare, focusing on the need of the general practitioner for horizontal and vertical data transmission and support. This publication examines the basis for the development of telematics in primary healthcare with regard to ethical, social and organisational impact and consumer perspective.
Clinical and biomedical research production is rapidly growing, but delivery to practitioners remains unacceptably slow. This work presents analyses and recommendations that should lead to competitive advantages by increasing the quality and effectiveness of health care delivery.
This text provides an innovative international forum for the researchers, developers and practitioners who are actively expanding the role of electronic technologies in healthcare.
An introduction to the methodology and practice of analysis, design and implementation of distributed health information systems. It includes a special section dedicated to security and interoperability of such systems as well as to advanced electronic health record approaches.
Telemedicine has the potential to significantly alter structures, procedures, and eventually outcomes in healthcare structures worldwide. This text offers a comprehensive source of information on legal aspects, issues concerning further development, and evaluation of telemedicine applications.
An overview of research projects in biomedical engineering, that constitute an integral part of the EC medical research programme on devices and instruments for biomedical applications. It covers diagnostic methods and monitoring, treatment and rehabilitation, and technical and clinical evaluation.
This text is a user-oriented methodology for formative (technology) assessment of the development of medical IT-based solutions throughout the system's lifecycle.
This text examines the current situation and trends in the use of health informatics and telematics in Africa and Latin America. It is intended to provide an understanding of the opportunities in health informatics for the advancement of technical co-operation between Europe and developing regions.
