Book Description
Depuis 2009, L'Equipe Mobile du Centre Hospitalier de Remiremont réalise des évaluations médico psychosociales pour les patients âgés fragiles, sur prescription des médecins hospitaliers. Notre travail a eu pour objectif principal de déterminer si un groupe de médecins généralistes et un groupe de médecins anesthésistes jugeaient utile de connaitre pour leurs activités professionnelles les résultats d'une évaluation gériatrique standardisée et quels items leur paraissaient importants à connaître dans cette évaluation. Matériels et méthodes : 2 groupes d'analyse ont été constitués pour analyser les 36 items de l'évaluation gériatrique : un groupe de 14 médecins anesthésistes lorrains et un de 26 médecins généralistes du territoire de Remiremont. Ils ont jugé chaque item de l'évaluation gériatrique standardisée - telle que réalisée en 2010 - selon que son résultat était indispensable, important, accessoire ou inutile à connaitre. Un test de Fischer a été réalisé pour chaque item afin de connaitre si les répartitions des réponses étaient similaires ou non entre les deux groupes. Parallèlement une analyse descriptive de l'activité de l'EMG de Remiremont a été réalisée sur l'année complète de 2010, incluant 180 dossiers afin d'avoir des résultats de référence concernant chaqueitem pour la population du territoire de Remiremont. Résultats : la partie administrative a été jugée globalement indispensable et importante par les 2 groupes, de même que les conditions de vie, l'évaluation psychologique, l'évaluation nutritionnelle, l'évaluation sensorielle, l'évaluation de l'autonomie, l'évaluation de la iatrogénie, les pathologies actives et les conclusions de l'évaluation. Une différence de répartition dans les réponses a été retrouvée en ce qui concerne l'évaluation mnésique et les recommandations. La confrontation de ces résultats avec ceux de l'analyse descriptive de 2010 et les données de la littérature a permis l'élaboration d'un résumé d'EGS (format réduit de 7 à 2 pages) pouvant être transmis aux médecins du patient (généralistes/anesthésistes).

Book Description
This book comprehensively reviews the potential of focal therapy and discusses why the changing face of prostate cancer warrants a change in the way we treat men with the disease. It deals with the mechanisms by which disease can be localized within the gland and then the different technologies used for focal ablation. Bringing together eminent contributors in one accessible reference, this book introduces focal therapy to all urologists, oncologists, and radiologists who are involved in the treatment of men with prostate cancer.

Book Description
Medical informatics and electronic healthcare have many benefits to offer in terms of quality of life for patients, healthcare personnel, citizens and society in general. But evidence-based medicine needs quality information if it is to lead to quality of health and thus to quality of life. This book presents the full papers accepted for presentation at the MIE2012 conference, held in Pisa, Italy, in August 2012. The theme of the 2012 conference is ‘Quality of Life through Quality of Information’. As always, the conference provides a unique platform for the exchange of ideas and experiences among the actors and stakeholders of ICT supported healthcare. The book incorporates contributions related to the latest achievements in biomedical and health informatics in terms of major challenges such as interoperability, collaboration, coordination and patient-oriented healthcare at the most appropriate level of care. It also offers new perspectives for the future of biomedical and health Informatics, critical appraisal of strategies for user involvement, insights for design, deployment and the sustainable use of electronic health records, standards, social software, citizen centred e-health, and new challenges in rehabilitation and social care informatics. The topics presented are interdisciplinary in nature and will be of interest to a variety of professionals; physicians, nurses and other allied health providers, health informaticians, engineers, academics and representatives from industry and consultancy in the various fields.

Book Description
For several years now, both eHealth applications and digitalization have been seen as fundamental to the new era of health informatics and public health. The current pandemic situation has also highlighted the importance of medical informatics for the scientific process of evidence-based reasoning and decision making at all levels of healthcare. This book presents the accepted full papers, short papers, and poster papers delivered as part of the 31st Medical Informatics in Europe Conference (MIE 2021), held virtually from 29-31 May 2021. MIE 2021 was originally due to be held in Athens, Greece, but due to the continuing pandemic situation, the conference was held as a virtual event. The 261 papers included here are grouped into 7 chapters: biomedical data, tools and methods; supporting care delivery; health and prevention; precision medicine and public health; human factors and citizen centered digital health; ethics, legal and societal aspects; and posters. Providing a state-of-the-art overview of medical informatics from around the world, the book will be of interest to all those working with eHealth applications and digitalization to improve the delivery of healthcare today.

Book Description
Digital health and medical informatics have grown in importance in recent years, and have now become central to the provision of effective healthcare around the world. This book presents the proceedings of the 30th Medical Informatics Europe conference (MIE). This edition of the conference, hosted by the European Federation for Medical Informatics (EFMI) since the 1970s, was due to be held in Geneva, Switzerland in April 2020, but as a result of measures to prevent the spread of the Covid19 pandemic, the conference itself had to be cancelled. Nevertheless, because this collection of papers offers a wealth of knowledge and experience across the full spectrum of digital health and medicine, it was decided to publish the submissions accepted in the review process and confirmed by the Scientific Program Committee for publication, and these are published here as planned. The 232 papers are themed under 6 section headings: biomedical data, tools and methods; supporting care delivery; health and prevention; precision medicine and public health; human factors and citizen centered digital health; and ethics, legal and societal aspects. A 7th section deals with the Swiss personalized health network, and section 8 includes the 125 posters accepted for the conference. Offering an overview of current trends and developments in digital health and medical informatics, the book provides a valuable information resource for researchers and health practitioners alike.
