Use Technology to Help Medical Staff Treat "New Health Problems" Arising Constantly.

Abstract

The development of medical science allows the treatment of more and more health problems that in the past were not a factor of consumption of health resources, because at that time medical science did not have protocols for their treatment. Health problems that are now treatable, hereafter referred as "new health problems", often affect large population groups and require increased consumption of health resources. It therefore becomes necessary to increase the number of staff providing health services (doctors, nurses, etc.) and other resources. This raises the question: is it feasible to manage the "new health problems" by the existing medical staff? If not, are there other solutions? Could technology help the existing Medical Staff to sufficiently manage the "new health problems"? We will examine a pilot system "Recording and visualizing of outpatient monitoring data with smart mobile phones", which seeks to ensure the competence of existing medical staff in the effective treatment of the ever-increasing volume of transplant patients.
