eHealth Practice in Europe: where do we stand?chronaki
eHealth as the use of Information and communication technologies in the practice of health care comprises Electronic health records, Healthcare information exchange cross-jurisdictions, Personal health records, Telehealth, telemedicine and remote monitoring.
There are several efforts to reflect and measure the practice of eHealth including efforts by the OECD and WHO, but in general there is little reported sharing of health data particularly with patients. Specific barriers frequently mentioned are supporting policies and coherent widely implemented standards.
The presentation discusses relevant efforts and programs supported by the European Commission such as the eHealth DSI, eStandards, ASSESS CT, and openMedicine aiming at large scale eHealth adoption It calls for engagement of European Society, its national societies, and its members.

The rise of consumer health awareness and the recent advent of personal health management tools (including mobile and health wearable devices) have contributed to another shift transforming the healthcare landscape. Despite the rise of health consumers, the impact of user-generated health data remains to be validated. In fact, many applications are hinged on the interpretability issues of this sort of data. The aim of this panel is two-fold. First, this panel aims to review the key dimensions in the interpretability, spanning from quality and reliability to information security and trust management. Secondly, since similar issues and methodologies have been proposed in different application areas ranging from clinical decision support to behavioral interventions and clinical trials, the panelists will also discuss both the success stories and the areas that fall short. The opportunities and barriers identified can then serve as guidelines or action items individuals can bring to their organizations to further improve the interpretability of user-generated data.

Chemical basis and signal transduction mechanisms for each taste
Taste Threshold and Index:
Taste threshold values for Sweet (sucrose), Salty (NaCl), Sour (HCl), and Bitter (Quinine)

7. Public Health and ICT Policy - European Union
Telehealth was first….eHealth, the integration of telehealth technologies with
the Internet..
eHealth means
1. the use of modern information and communication technologies (ICT) in
support of health and health-related fields, and
2. to meet needs of citizens, patients, healthcare professionals, healthcare
providers as well as policy makers.
3. eHealth covers the interaction between citizens/patients and health-service
providers, institution-to-institution transmission of data, or peer-to-peer
communication between citizens/patients and/or health professionals.
9. Health care education - Telecommunication
• (Tele)phoning
• Videoconferencing
• Using Simulation laboratories
• Social media, Moodle, Adobe connect pro, Skype, SL
10. eHealth use by GPs
• Storage of administrative patient data
• Storage of medical patient data
• Use of a computer during consultation
• Use of a Decision Support System
• Transfer of administrative patient data to reimburses or other carers
• Transfer of lab results from the laboratory
• Transfer of medical patient data to other carers
• e-Prescribing

of Social Welfare and Healthcare (citizen-centred, seamless service-chain, horizontal
integration of social and health services)
• 1998: Update of the strategy, placing emphasis on several issues, e.g.
digital patients records, nationwide interoperability or privacy protection
• 2002: Decision-in-Principle by the Council of State for the introduction of
nationwide patient records
