Medicinsk informatik og sundhedsfaglig informatik

DE VEDVARENDE HVA' FOR NOGEN!?De vedvarende uforklarede fysiske symptomer anslås at gælde for 10-20 % af den danske befolkning, men selvom prævalensen er høj, er sygdomsgruppen præget af et manglende forfæste i det danske sundhedssystem.Denne bog er et opgør med de mest sejlivede myter inden for feltet. Den giver et overblik over den opdaterede tilgængelige viden og placerer de uforklarede symptomer i en aktuel samfundsmæssig kontekst.De vedvarende uforklarede symptomer udgør en stor udfordring i sundheds- og socialsystemet, og evidensbaseret viden er nødvendigt for at imødekomme de mange patienter og familiers legitime behov. Det drejer sig blandt andet om:FibromyalgiIrritabel tyktarmME/postviralt træthedssyndromPost comootio-syndrom/whiplashMultipel kemisk intoleranceFunktionelle bevægeforstyrrelserSygdomsangstBogen er opbygget med en beskrivende del, en klinisk orienteret del, diagnostiske værktøjer samt en beskrivelse af, hvordan en opdateret helhedsorienteret sygdomsmodel kan forstås. Den præsenterer et nutidigt vidensgrundlag for alle sundhedsprofessioner, der har med denne patientgruppe at gøre, herunder især de praktiserende læger, samt til patienter og pårørende.

I Sundhedsinformatik i sundhedsvæsnet foretages en rækkenedslag på, hvordan arbejdet med ny, avanceret teknologi kan tages i brug medhenblik på de markante forandringer, som det danske sundhedsvæsen gennemgår idisse år. Sundhedssektoren mærker effekterne af større demografiske,strukturelle og teknologiske bevægelser. Sundhedsinformatik skal ses som enintegreret del af professionsfagligheden og skal derfor understøtte desundhedsprofessionelles viden om, hvordan de skal agere i relation til deresprofession, når udgangspunktet er deling af data internt såvel som eksternt isundhedsvæsnet. Bogen bygger på forskellige typer af viden: erfarings‑,udviklings‑ og forskningsbaseret viden, indenfor den natur- human- ogsamfundsfaglige videnstradition. Formålet med inddragelse af disse forskelligevidenstraditioner er at give et nuanceret billede af nogle af de mange tiltag,der er på området, samt at skabe et grundlag for kritisk refleksion hos læserenift. anvendelsen af sundhedsinformatik i sundhedsvæsnet.

I løbet af et livsforløb kommer de fleste mennesker ud for kriser i forbindelse med fx alvorlig sygdom, ulykker eller tab af deres nærmeste. Ofte mødes disse mennesker af professionelle i sundhedsvæsnet, for hvem det bliver naturligt at ville vække håb. Skal det lykkes, må den professionelle have et nuanceret blik for håbets betydning og være opmærksom på, hvad der kan styrke det enkelte menneskes håb. Helt grundlæggende må man også vide, hvad håb egentlig er.Denne bog samler og diskuterer en række centrale teorier om håb fra filosofi, psykologi og samfundsvidenskab. Undervejs sættes teorierne i relation til praksis, og da håb også har væsentlig betydning for den sundhedsprofessionelle selv, bliver bogens tema også belyst ud fra en aktuel samfundsmæssig sammenhæng. Bogen er med dens systematiske teoretiske fremstilling den første af sin art på dansk og er et tiltrængt bidrag til at nuancere forståelsen af håb som andet og mere end hverdagens håb om, at dette eller hint vil ske i fremtiden.Bogen retter sig i kraft af dens eksempelmateriale primært mod sundhedsprofessionerne men er relevant for alle fagprofessionelle, som beskæftiger sig med mennesker i sårbare situationer. Endelig kan bogen læses af alle, som ønsker at få en større forståelse for håbets mange nuancer.

In the era of 'Algorithmic Medicine,' the integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in healthcare holds immense potential to address critical challenges faced by the industry. This textbook goes beyond theoretical discussions to outline practical steps for transitioning

This book provides examination of applications of soft computing techniques related to healthcare systems and can be used as a reference guide for assessing the roles that various techniques, such as machine learning, fuzzy logic, and statistical mathematics, play in the advancements of smart healthcare systems.

In today's world, smart healthcare supports the out-of-hospital concept, which transforms and offers higher care standards. This is accomplished with individual requirements with the help of public opinion. Moreover, smart healthcare systems are generally designed to sense individual health status data, which can be forwarded to clinical professionals for interpretation. Swarm intelligence analysis is a valuable tool for categorizing public opinion into different sentiments. Dynamics of Swarm Intelligence Health Analysis for the Next Generation discusses the role of behavioral activity in the evolution of traditional medical systems to intelligent systems. It further focuses on the economic, social, and environmental impacts of swarm intelligence smart healthcare systems. Covering topics such as healthcare data analytics, clustering algorithms, and the internet of medical things, this premier reference source is an excellent resource for healthcare professionals, hospital administrators, IT managers, policymakers, educators and students of higher education, researchers, and academicians.

This edited book discusses the challenges in handling medical data to provide effective healthcare services in real-time and outlines the approaches and the impact of, AI, IOT, cloud, big data, and blockchain technologies for building intelligent Healthcare 4.0 systems.

Was hat die ¿Tropenmedizin" im ¿Globalen Norden" zu suchen? Was kann eine Universität, ein ¿Tropeninstitut", im ¿Globalen Norden" zur Verbesserung der Gesundheitssituation im ¿Globalen Süden" beitragen? Die Antwort: ¿Tropenmedizin" muss sich zu ¿Globaler Medizin" hin entwickeln. Das heutige Heidelberg Institute of Global Health an der Universität Heidelberg ist diesen Weg von seinen Anfängen als Institut für Tropenhygiene 1962 bis heute konsequent gegangen. Hans Jochen Diesfeld hat diesen Weg aktiv gestaltet und begleitet. Er zeichnet ihn in diesem Band nach und zeigt dabei die verschiedenen Einflussfaktoren und Herausforderungen auf. Er erweist damit all denen Referenz, die über vier akademische Generationen hinweg dazu beigetragen haben.
