Book Summary:
The International council on Medical and Care Compunetics wants to emphasize the computing networking synergies in medicine and (health)care. The term Compunetics was introduced to present the union of the latter. The ICMCC wants to bring together as many aspects of medical and care ICT and networking compunetics as possible by forming a Global Knowledge Center. The availability of information works on both the BTB and the BTC level, as the structure will aim at both the professionals (caregivers) and the consumers. Professionals will be able to find relevant information (medical, technical, scientific) in a fast and efficient way. Industry (and more specifically SME?s) will have access to technical information from a central portal. Patients/consumers will be able to obtain information related to their illness or handicaps such tat they will be more knowledgeable about possible treatments and treatment alternatives. The shifting paradigm of health from reparati! ve to preventive will enhance the necessity of consumer relation information, that when efficiently obtained, can be of great economical benefit. In a world where the need for care is growing rapidly and where it is impossible to expect a growth in the number of caregivers, information is becoming more and more crucial. Not only because an informed patient is an economic benefit, but also because awareness amongst professionals about developments in their own and related fields can save enormous amounts of money. ICMCC will build a global network of professionals in medicine and care. Clinicians, pharmacologists, managers, care practitioners, patients, policy makers, IT specialists will all be represented. |
