This is a practical book for health and IT professionals who need to ensure that patient safety is prioritized in the design and implementation of clinical information technology.

Healthcare professionals are increasingly reliant on information technology to deliver care and inform their clinical decision making. Health IT provides enormous benefits in efficiency, communication and decision making. However a number of high-profile UK and US studies have concluded that when Health IT is poorly designed or sub-optimally implemented then patient safety can be compromised.

Enhance Your Students Mathematical Problem-Solving Ability

Scientific Computing with MATLAB(r), Second Edition improves students ability to tackle mathematical problems. It helps students understand the mathematical background and find reliable and accurate solutions to mathematical problems with the use of MATLAB, avoiding the tedious and complex technical details of mathematics. This edition retains the structure of its predecessor Solving Applied Mathematical Problems with MATLAB(r) while expanding and updating the content of each chapter.

Based on the authors extensive teaching,...

The theory of phononic crystals, i.e., artificial periodic structures that can alter the flow of acoustic waves, as well as numerical modelling techniques are presented in this volume. It contains a comprehensive set of tutorials on solving basic phononic crystal problems with finite element models (FEM), allowing the reader to generate band structures for 2D and 3D phononic crystals, to compute Bloch waves, waveguide, cavity modes, and more.

Dieses Buch gibt einen umfassenden Uberblick uber Potenziale und Herausforderungen von eHealth im deutschen Kontext. Aus interdisziplinarer Sicht werden zunachst die Grundlagen und Voraussetzungen dargestellt, wie z. B. technische Standards, rechtliche Rahmenbedingungen sowie Aspekte in Bezug auf Qualitat und Finanzierung von eHealth-Anwendungen.

Bei der Beschreibung wichtiger Anwendungsfelder wird neben allgemeinen eHealth-Anwendungen insbesondere auf die Telemedizin als einem zentralen Instrument von eHealth eingegangen. Dabei werden Anwendungsmoglichkeiten und Anforderungen an...

Since its inception 14 years ago, CAPRISA has conducted numerous clinical studies that have influenced international TB-HIV treatment guidelines as well as HIV prevention through innovations in the microbicide and vaccine fields. This book provides a historical account of how each of CAPRISA's high impact studies was created, developed, implemented, analysed and communicated. In doing so, the reader is taken on a journey that provides glimpses into the genesis of research ideas and how this ultimately leads to a range of HIV prevention and treatment studies that have impacted the global...

Data-intensive science has the potential to transform scientific research and quickly translate scientific progress into complete solutions, policies, and economic success. But this collaborative science is still lacking the effective access and exchange of knowledge among scientists, researchers, and policy makers across a range of disciplines. Bringing together leaders from multiple scientific disciplines, Data-Intensive Science shows how a comprehensive integration of various techniques and technological advances can effectively harness the vast amount of data being...

This book constitutes the proceedings of the Third International Conference on Internet of Things (IoT) Technologies for HealthCare, HealthyIoT 2016, held in Vasteras, Sweden, October 18-19, 2016. The conference also included the First Workshop on Emerging eHealth through Internet of Things (EHIoT 2016). IoT as a set of existing and emerging technologies, notions and services provides many solutions to delivery of electronic healthcare, patient care, and medical data management.
The 31 revised full papers presented along with 9 short papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 43...
