Book Description
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the Second International Conference on Health Information Science, HIS 2013, held in London, UK, in March 2013. The 20 full papers presented together with 3 short papers, 3 demo papers and one poster in this volume were carefully reviewed and selected from numerous submissions. The papers cover all aspects of health information sciences and systems that support the health information management and health service delivery. The scope of the conference includes 1) medical/health/biomedicine information resources, such as patient medical records, devices and equipments, software and tools to capture, store, retrieve, process, analyse, and optimize the use of information in the health domain, 2) data management, data mining, and knowledge discovery, all of which play a key role in the decision making, management of public health, examination of standards, privacy and security issues, and 3) development of new architectures and applications for health information systems.
Countering the Problem of Falsified and Substandard Drugs
Author: Institute of MedicinePublisher: National Academies Press
ISBN: 0309269393
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 377
Book Description
The adulteration and fraudulent manufacture of medicines is an old problem, vastly aggravated by modern manufacturing and trade. In the last decade, impotent antimicrobial drugs have compromised the treatment of many deadly diseases in poor countries. More recently, negligent production at a Massachusetts compounding pharmacy sickened hundreds of Americans. While the national drugs regulatory authority (hereafter, the regulatory authority) is responsible for the safety of a country's drug supply, no single country can entirely guarantee this today. The once common use of the term counterfeit to describe any drug that is not what it claims to be is at the heart of the argument. In a narrow, legal sense a counterfeit drug is one that infringes on a registered trademark. The lay meaning is much broader, including any drug made with intentional deceit. Some generic drug companies and civil society groups object to calling bad medicines counterfeit, seeing it as the deliberate conflation of public health and intellectual property concerns. Countering the Problem of Falsified and Substandard Drugs accepts the narrow meaning of counterfeit, and, because the nuances of trademark infringement must be dealt with by courts, case by case, the report does not discuss the problem of counterfeit medicines.
