Information and communication technology (ICT) offers solutions for healthcare challenges like aging populations and staff shortages. ICT enables decentralized care, supporting mobile health professionals and shared care teams through advanced documentation and decision support systems.

Area of Science:

  • Healthcare Management
  • Medical Informatics
  • Health Services Research

Background:

  • Healthcare systems face challenges: aging populations, chronic diseases, budget constraints, and staff shortages.
  • Decentralization trends shift care from hospitals to home-based settings, increasing demand for remote and mobile health solutions.
  • Existing healthcare models require adaptation to integrate advanced technologies for efficient, accessible patient care.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To explore the role of Information and Communication Technology (ICT) in addressing future healthcare challenges.
  • To examine the prerequisites and impact of ICT implementation in decentralized and shared care environments.
  • To discuss the integration of clinical documentation and decision support systems in ubiquitous computing for healthcare.

Main Methods:

  • Literature review and analysis of current trends in healthcare delivery and technology adoption.
  • Exploration of organizational and human factors influencing ICT implementation in healthcare.
  • Development of a future scenario illustrating the role of ICT, including dentistry, in shared care.

Main Results:

  • ICT is crucial for managing healthcare challenges, enabling decentralized care models, and supporting mobile healthcare professionals.
  • Ubiquitous access to information and cooperative work are key requirements for ICT in shared care environments.
  • Clinical documentation and decision support systems are central to ICT-enabled healthcare, impacting organizational structures and personnel.

Conclusions:

  • ICT adoption is essential for modernizing healthcare delivery, particularly in home-based and shared care settings.
  • Successful ICT integration requires addressing organizational, human, and technological prerequisites for point-of-care solutions.
  • Future healthcare, including dentistry, will increasingly rely on ICT for seamless information exchange and collaborative patient management.
