Description
**Book Description**
Europe is currently grappling with a significant paradox: governments are striving to curtail public spending, yet the demand on healthcare systems is escalating. With challenges like a dwindling workforce of healthcare professionals, an ageing populace, and stringent financial limitations, the integration of smart technologies offers a beacon of hope. These innovative solutions have the potential to transform healthcare delivery, addressing pressing issues by enhancing efficiency and accessibility. However, despite a growing body of evidence demonstrating the advantages of embracing technology, the healthcare sector has been notably sluggish in adopting the digital revolution, clinging instead to traditional models and methods that no longer suffice.
**Interdisciplinary Assessment of Personal Health Monitoring (PDF)** delves into selected presentations from the prestigious symposium on Personal Health Monitoring (PHM) and Ethics, as well as emerging areas for PHM exploration. This event was held prior to the 11th World Congress of Bioethics in Rotterdam, Netherlands, in June 2012. The majority of the contributions stem from the European PHM-Ethics project, which undertook rigorous interdisciplinary analyses of the rapidly developing PHM technologies and their implications. Additional invited papers explore critical issues that align with the primary objectives and outcomes of the ongoing project.
Furthermore, this scholarly work is intricately linked to the innovative e-Health Action Plan introduced by the European Commission in December 2012, which aims to harness the benefits of digital solutions within healthcare systems. **Interdisciplinary Assessment of Personal Health Monitoring** addresses a wide array of topics, from the technical architecture of PHM systems to the ethical dilemmas posed by these technologies, making it an essential read for anyone involved in the enhancement of healthcare delivery on a global scale.
