Issues and challenges of Connected Health: a clinical perspective
Albert AlonsoInnovation Directorate
16th Annual conference and Scientific Symposium
HISI Annual Conference, Dublin, November 16th 2011
Why Connected Health?• Enables more informed decision-making and enhanced quality of care• Saves lives through remote consultations, whether urgent or
diagnostic• Creates more efficient, convenient and potentially more cost-effective
delivery of care• Facilitates earlier – and more accurate – diagnoses• Provides greater and faster access to a patient’s medical history,
reducing the risk of negative drug interactions or poor response to a course of treatment
• Improves administrative efficiency and coordination.• Allows rural residents to receive expert diagnosis and treatment from
distant medical centers.• Increases timeliness of treatment and decreases transfer rates, while
reducing medical costs through video technology • Supports real - time treatment by first responders through the use of
smartphones.• Enhances senior wellness and preventative care through telemedicine
and remote in-home monitoring.

• No children• Stepson, niece; each 90 minutes
away; working• 2 sisters – equally dependent, do
not drive• Neighbours – elderly couples 70+,
each husband with history of cancer

• General Practitioner – uninterested, repeat meds., nothing curable
• Cardiologist – medication• Orthopod – undecided• Neurologist – unsure• Geriatrician – peace maker• Home nurse – monthly• Respite care – annually

Social care essentials
• Difficult negotiations between family, health care, and social care providers
• Daily hot meal delivered 5 days• 1 hour home support• Eventually family also arrange 7 day
home visit support including midday meal

Meet a 21st century Older Person
Who manages her health?
• Health seriously compromised if not helped holistically
• Health care and Social care need harmonising
• Family and carers’ own needs are factors

Is Connected Health good for Mary?
HISI Annual Conference, Dublin, November 16th 2011
Maybe, but we could do it better
HISI Annual Conference, Dublin, November 16th 2011
To begin, we need to change our clinical perspective

Moving to 4P medicine
Predictive, preventive, personalised, participatory
• New studies needed on precise patients’ phenotypes and follow up
• Systems medicine: Massive amount of patients’ data should be available (new societal responsibility)
• ICT are the only way to collect and exploit these data: new information management systems are required, smarter monitoring solutions.
We need this connected health to make integrated care possible
