The Internet and Health: Controversies and OpportunitiesIgnacio Basagoiti
In the present article we tried to approach the phenomenon of the access online to the sanitary information on the part of the citizens, its importance and utility, but also the problems which one faces and the possible solutions to consider.
Presentation 'Use of social networks for innovation in health' done by Vicente Traver (SABIEN-ITACA previously TSB-ITACA) during the IBEC 2014 conference held in Gwangju from 20 to 22th November, 2014. Presentation is focused about how social media can be used as driver for innovation in health
Talk I gave at the College of Medical Science and Technology - Taipei Medical University. The topic was about the use of technology for participatory and open health.
This is the trial lecture of my PhD, which will be defended the 24th of October 2014 in the Arctic Univ of Norway (UiT).
In this lecture I will provide an overview of the benefits and challenges of using social media in crisis management. As study case we use the ongoing ebola crisis.
Mounting interest in the field of mHealth—the provision of health-related services via mobile communica-tions—can be traced to the evolution of several interrelated trends. In many parts of the world, epidemicsand a shortage of healthcare workers continue to present grave challenges for governments and healthproviders. Yet in these same places, the explosive growth of mobile communications over the past decadeoffers a new hope for the promotion of quality healthcare. Among those who had previously been left behindby the ‘digital divide,’ billions now have access to reliable technology.There is a growing body of evidence that demonstrates the potential of mobile communications to radicallyimprove healthcare services—even in some of the most remote and resource-poor environments. This reportexamines issues at the heart of the rapidly evolving intersection of mobile phones and healthcare. It helps thereader to understand mHealth’s scope and implementation across developing regions, the health needs towhich mHealth can be applied, and the mHealth applications that promise the greatest impact on heath careinitiatives. It also examines building blocks required to make mHealth more widely available through sustain-able implementations. Finally, it calls for concerted action to help realize mHealth’s full potential.
How can doctors more efficiently use the internet and social media to improve patient care and keep current? The videos can be access at www.aboutcancer.com

The 2014 annual meeting of the American Association of Nurse Practitioners, in Nashville. One of my favorite talks of all time - nurse practitioners are by nature highly committed to putting power and competence in the hands of patients.
Connects to the social roots of the movement, particularly the women's movement, and emphasizes the patient's view: is it really a PROBLEM that we're surviving long enough to get chronic conditions?? Standing ovation.
Expanded version of a short panel presentation on the subject of mHealth. My point was that mHealth has meaning only in the larger context of an important reality: the best quality care depends on having the best information, so THAT is what we need to be thinking about.
The history of medicine has been a continuous evolution of methods, models, and paradigms as what's possible has changed with new technology. Today the frontier of medicine is "superpatients" - patients who don't just receive care, they literally extend science and create treatments: truly "super" patients. Video of this talk will be available soon!
NI2016 is the Nursing Informatics conference, in a different country every other year; this year it's Geneva, Switzerland. This talk focused on how nursing informatics can empower patients and families by sharing medical data.

As patient engagement (aka consumer engagement) earns attention, the question increasingly arises: “Where do we start? What can we do?” More specifically, “What do we mean when we say ‘patient engagement’?” The Patient Activation Measure is a powerful tool for understanding where someone's at and how to interact with them differently.
High-powered webcast to NNLM Feb 21, 2019. Introduces the Superpatient concept, contrasts it with generic "citizen scientists," gives several examples, addresses the cultural obstacles that hold back progress, and asks how medical libraries might encourage and support superpatients in their efforts.
Opening keynote at DIA Europe, Vienna, Feb 5, 2019. Our paradigm of patient is significantly out of date, and it's holding back progress - a new class of "Superpatients" are *extending* science when the doctors are out of answers. Amazing!
In 2012 I spoke to this outstanding organization in York, PA, in Robert Wood Johnson Foundation's Aligning Forces for Quality program. Now we're getting back together to see how their work and the patient engagement and empowerment movement have both progressed, and what's next. First exploratory meeting.

Recomendações da OMS sobre cuidados maternos e neonatais para uma experiência pós-natal positiva.
Em consonância com os ODS – Objetivos do Desenvolvimento Sustentável e a Estratégia Global para a Saúde das Mulheres, Crianças e Adolescentes, e aplicando uma abordagem baseada nos direitos humanos, os esforços de cuidados pós-natais devem expandir-se para além da cobertura e da simples sobrevivência, de modo a incluir cuidados de qualidade.
Estas diretrizes visam melhorar a qualidade dos cuidados pós-natais essenciais e de rotina prestados às mulheres e aos recém-nascidos, com o objetivo final de melhorar a saúde e o bem-estar materno e neonatal.
Uma “experiência pós-natal positiva” é um resultado importante para todas as mulheres que dão à luz e para os seus recém-nascidos, estabelecendo as bases para a melhoria da saúde e do bem-estar a curto e longo prazo. Uma experiência pós-natal positiva é definida como aquela em que as mulheres, pessoas que gestam, os recém-nascidos, os casais, os pais, os cuidadores e as famílias recebem informação consistente, garantia e apoio de profissionais de saúde motivados; e onde um sistema de saúde flexível e com recursos reconheça as necessidades das mulheres e dos bebês e respeite o seu contexto cultural.
Estas diretrizes consolidadas apresentam algumas recomendações novas e já bem fundamentadas sobre cuidados pós-natais de rotina para mulheres e neonatos que recebem cuidados no pós-parto em unidades de saúde ou na comunidade, independentemente dos recursos disponíveis.
É fornecido um conjunto abrangente de recomendações para cuidados durante o período puerperal, com ênfase nos cuidados essenciais que todas as mulheres e recém-nascidos devem receber, e com a devida atenção à qualidade dos cuidados; isto é, a entrega e a experiência do cuidado recebido. Estas diretrizes atualizam e ampliam as recomendações da OMS de 2014 sobre cuidados pós-natais da mãe e do recém-nascido e complementam as atuais diretrizes da OMS sobre a gestão de complicações pós-natais.
O estabelecimento da amamentação e o manejo das principais intercorrências é contemplada.
Recomendamos muito.
Vamos discutir essas recomendações no nosso curso de pós-graduação em Aleitamento no Instituto Ciclos.

16. ACOR is great. I posted two messages tonight and got responses in 4 and 11 minutes. One responder also sent a private note mentioning Robin and Cathy. The other responder was Cathy. :) Through that list I've also found several other useful sites. Patient communities are responsive. People discuss what to do, what to know. At virtually no cost. (Cheap. Not free.)
17. Please: 1% for the patients. Patient communities do a whole lot of good for a little bit of cash. Whatever we spend, let’s set aside just 1% to help patient communities help themselves. Note: this is an audience where you don’t have to motivate adoption. Time-to-benefit is nearly instant.
