Integrated Healthcare System01:20

Integrated Healthcare System

2.5K
An integrated healthcare system (IHS) is a set of organizations that provides for or arranges to provide coordinated and continuous service to a defined population. The IHS takes responsibility for that particular population's health status and outcome, both clinically and fiscally. An integrated healthcare system is a well-organized, well-coordinated, and collaborative network. The integrated delivery system is a network that connects different healthcare providers to deliver organized,...

Secondary Healthcare System01:11

Secondary Healthcare System

2.2K
Secondary healthcare is offered by a specialist, generally in hospitals or clinics for patients referred by primary healthcare providers. It occurs when a person has an illness or injury that requires specific medical care. Secondary care is often referred to as acute care. Secondary care can range from uncomplicated care to repair a minor laceration or treat a strep throat infection to more complicated emergent care, such as treating a head injury sustained in an automobile accident. Whatever...

Tertiary Healthcare System01:21

Tertiary Healthcare System

2.4K
Specialized care provided over an extended period is called tertiary care. Usually, a primary or secondary care physician will refer a patient to tertiary care. A patient's maximum physical and mental function is restored in tertiary care, which is caused due to the impact of a chronic illness or condition. Tertiary care aims to achieve the highest level of functioning possible while managing chronic illness. For example, a patient who falls and fractures their hip will need secondary care...

At the different levels of the healthcare system, we see varying methods of healthcare used. These methods include managed care systems, case management, and primary healthcare.
Managed Care System:
The managed care system is designed to control the cost while maintaining the quality of care. The patient's care from admission to discharge is planned by the primary care provider or the case manager, also known as the gatekeeper. In a managed care system, the number of care providers is...

Area of Science:

  • Integrative Medicine
  • eHealth
  • Medical Informatics

Background:

  • Information on complementary medicine is fragmented across various literature and web resources, often limited to single specialist fields.
  • Existing resources lack the ability to search for therapies based on patient-specific indications.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To create a centralized, integrated database for complementary medicine knowledge.
  • To enhance the efficiency of searching for suitable complementary therapies.

Main Methods:

  • Utilized data integration techniques to build the ALTMEDA database.
  • ALTMEDA incorporates both complementary and drug-related data.

Main Results:

  • Developed the eHealth system KATIS and its mobile app ALMEKO based on the ALTMEDA database.
  • KATIS provides comprehensive knowledge across ten specialist fields.

Conclusions:

  • KATIS is a web-based system for complementary medicine, offering efficient access to information.
  • Users can efficiently look up specific therapies or find suitable treatments for various indications.
