The increasing availability of easily retrievable, digitised patient data offers new opportunities to researches, scientists and specialised industry (e.g. pharmaceutical industry). What are the real benefits and challenges of the use healthcare databases that contain health and/or genetic information? Can the secrecy and integrity of patient data be guarded? And is patient data fit for reuse? Do we need new rules of the game?
PS9: Integration: The Good, the Bad and the Heroic
When: 16 March, 14:00

Several large national and local attempts have been made to streamline health care by integrating electronic health and patient record systems. Some attempts have been successes, some have been failures and the outcome of some bold projects is yet to be seen.
The session summarises experiences of some well known projects.
PS14: Do we need a unique identifier to avoid defragmentation of the eHealth market?

To identify persons, organisations and even infra-structure components. Health-ID Management is a fundamental prerequisite. Correct identification is crucial to avoid errors and make the right decisions. Today, many systems have with legacy unique identification practices and the move to a new identification system is often difficult. To be useful Health-IDs must be unique, trustworthy and interoperable. The session will highlight the most important initiatives and projects to support cross-border healthcare and Europe wide interoperability of eHealth services.
PS19: In Silico modelling of disease and personalised therapy: VPH, an emerging perspective in eHealth
When: 17 March, 09:15

The Virtual Physiological Human (VPH) is a technological and methodological framework that once fully realised will make possible the investigation of the human body as a whole by integrating clinical, instrumental, and biochemical information into patient-specific models capable of capturing the systemic nature of most physiopathological processes. The concept was first elaborated in Barcelona in 2005, and quickly became a key concept for European biomedical research, and a flagship objective of the EU Seventh Framework Programme (FP7). This session will provide an update on where the VPH research is, and will highlight its short-term potential from a clinical and industrial perspective.
PS24: Procuring for better Health and Innovation
When: 17 March, 13:30

Presenters will analyse trends in eHealth procurement, the prerequisite factors for success in different programme types, how these translate into investment decision-making and procurement processes, and the challenges of balancing local needs/priorities within wider national and pan-European contexts.
PS29: eHealth market? Present and Prospects - A view from industrial players
When: 17 March, 17:00
Location: Room CCIB

| Eric MaurincommeCOCIR Healthcare IT Chairman and Chief Strategy & Marketing OfficerCOCIR & Agfa HealthcareBelgium | John CrawfordCOCIR Healthcare IT Committee, Healthcare Solutions ManagerIBM | Dr Sasha HenkeCOCIR Telemedicine Focus group, Chairman and Vice President Sales and MarketingRobert Bosch GmbH Germany |
The deployment of eHealth is timid and restrained and rarely achieves maturity to demonstrate its full potential. Now, in Europe, a new set of common political imperatives is driving demands for major healthcare transformation. COCIR advocates the development and deployment of eHealth solutions and services as being crucial for improving safety, quality, accessibility and efficiency of healthcare, but notes that although eHealth will be a key enabling part of healthcare transformation, progress towards eHealth capabilities has been painfully slow.
PS34: How Hospitals and Healthcare Organisations can Address Web 2.0? Is Healthcare Ready for Open Access to Information?
When: 18 March, 09:30
Location: Room CCIB
| Presented by: |
| Miguel CabrerCEO & FounderMedting Spain | Denise SilberPresidentBasil Strategies & Partner, Health 2.0 EuropeFrance | Zaida Sampedro PréstamoHealth Information Systems General DirectorMadrid Health DepartmentSpain |
Clinical transformation only occurs through a change in processes. It requires the redesign of workflow that takes advantage of the benefits offered by health information technology. In this session attendees will learn the fundamentals of social networking, review the role of clinical transformation in improving healthcare, understand some basic web 2.0 concepts and technology, see some practical experiences of Web 2.0 Social Platforms for Clinicians and Patients What Web 2.0 brings to Healthcare community?
