Issues And Trends In Healthcare Delivery System

5.6K
The issues and trends in healthcare delivery are constantly changing. The COVID-19 pandemic is one recent issue that wreaked havoc on healthcare systems, causing a shortage of healthcare workers, high demand for medicines and supplies, and increased medical expenditure due to a lack of insurance. Other issues include rising healthcare costs and care fragmentation.
Cost Containment
Payment for healthcare services has historically promoted adoption of costly and often unnecessary or inefficient...

Combination Therapies and Personalized Medicine

4.8K
Combining two or more treatment methods increases the life span of cancer patients while reducing damage to vital organs or tissue from the overuse of a single treatment. Combination therapy also targets different cancer-inducing pathways, thus reducing the chances of developing resistance to treatment.
The combination of the drug acetazolamide and sulforaphane is a good example of combination therapy to treat cancer. The cells in the interior of a large tumor often die due to the hypoxic and...

Cancer Survival Analysis01:21

Cancer Survival Analysis

328
Cancer survival analysis focuses on quantifying and interpreting the time from a key starting point, such as diagnosis or the initiation of treatment, to a specific endpoint, such as remission or death. This analysis provides critical insights into treatment effectiveness and factors that influence patient outcomes, helping to shape clinical decisions and guide prognostic evaluations. A cornerstone of oncology research, survival analysis tackles the challenges of skewed, non-normally...

Concepts of Health and Illness

14.1K
Health is a condition of the body, mind, and spirit where an individual remains free from illness. Similarly, wellness is an active state, including living a lifestyle that promotes physical, mental, and emotional health. Physical health is critical for the overall well-being and can be affected by lifestyle, activity level, diet, and behavior. The highest attainable standard of health is a fundamental and universal human right. Consider Lisa, a fifteen-year-old born with congenital...

Cancer Vaccines

338
Cancer treatment vaccines are a rapidly evolving field that offers a promising approach to immunotherapy. Unlike traditional vaccines that prevent diseases, cancer treatment vaccines are designed to treat existing cancers by stimulating the immune system to recognize and attack cancer cells.
Cancer vaccines come in two categories: preventive (prophylactic) and treatment (active). Preventive vaccines, such as the Human Papillomavirus (HPV) vaccine, protect against viruses that cause certain...

Area of Science:

  • Digital Health Technology (DHT) in Oncology
  • Healthcare Innovation and Public Health

Background:

  • Digital technologies are pervasive but underutilized in population health, particularly in oncology.
  • Rising cancer incidence globally necessitates innovative healthcare solutions.
  • The diverse interpretations of digital health require a standardized framework for effective implementation.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To propose a comprehensive conceptual framework for Digital Health Technology (DHT) in cancer care.
  • To outline the multi-faceted applications of DHT across the patient journey and healthcare system.

Main Methods:

  • Elaboration on the '5Ps' conceptual framework: Proper assessment, Pertinent treatment, Progress monitoring, Prevention, and Professional standards.
  • Integration of current evidence and examples for each component of the framework.
  • Discussion of AI in digital pathology, digital self-management, remote monitoring, and 'hospital at home' concepts.

Main Results:

  • DHT can enhance cancer assessment (digital biopsies) and personalize treatment (genomic analysis, AI pathology).
  • Digital interventions improve patient self-management, autonomy, and outcomes, supporting remote progress monitoring.
  • DHT facilitates widespread prevention strategies and necessitates updated professional standards and rigorous ethical regulations.

Conclusions:

  • The proposed '5Ps' conceptual framework provides a structured approach to leveraging DHT in oncology.
  • Effective implementation requires addressing training gaps, ensuring clinical evidence parity, and establishing robust ethical guidelines.
  • DHT presents a viable solution to current healthcare demands, promising significant advancements in cancer care delivery and policy.
