Book excerpt: Introduction : l'explosiion du phénomène Internet dans le domaine de la santé pose des interrogations sur le changement de comportement des patients, et sur l'impact des informations trouvées en ligne sur la relation médecin-patient. Questions de recherche : quelle est la proportion de patients allant se renseigner sur Internet avant une consultation de médecine générale ? Quels sont leurs profils et leurs motifs ? Quel est l'impact sur la consultation ? Matériel et méthode : une enquête par questionnaire a été réalisée auprès de patients de médecine générale, d'âge adulte, et venant consulter pour un motif aigu. Résultats : 32% des patients avaient cherché des informations médicales sur Internet avant la consultation. La plupart n'en parlaient pas au médecin. L'inquiétude était le motif principal. Les patients qui utilisaient Internet quotidiennement, qui s'intéressaient aux autres médias, qui étaient atteints de maladie chronique, et dont le délai de consultation était important, faisaient significativement plus de recherches. La plupart des patients estimaient mieux comprendre leur problème grâce à Internet. Conclusion : Internet est deveu un partenaire de soins, auquel les praticiens sont contraints à s'adapter. Une communication efficace et un devoir de clarification de l'information sont désormais nécessaires pour entretenir la relation de confiance.

This book was released on 2022 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Introduction : En médecine générale, l'incertitude est fréquente et la science évolue vite. Ainsi, les médecins ont besoin de s'informer. Internet est une source d'information de plus en plus utilisée, aussi bien par les médecins que par les patients. Les conséquences des recherches des patients ont été étudiées à plusieurs reprises. Mais celles des médecins interrogent également. L'objectif de cette étude est de mettre en évidence le rôle sur la relation médecin-patient des recherches internet en consultation. Méthodologie : La méthodologie choisie était une approche qualitative par théorisation ancrée. Des entretiens collectifs en visioconférence ont été réalisés. Résultats : Une influence ambivalente des recherches internet sur la relation médecin-patient a été mise en évidence. Celle-ci tend principalement vers une répercussion positive, permettant au médecin d'accéder à des informations sécurisantes et d'entrer dans une relation plus équilibrée avec son patient. Une certaine vigilance doit tout de même persister, afin de ne pas rompre la relation et se laisser absorber par son écran. Discussion : Selon la littérature, internet peut guider la relation médecin-patient vers une nouvelle ère, avec de nouveaux rôles donnés au médecin. Le médecin devenant guide et formateur du web. Ceci pourrait se développer au sein des maisons de santé pluridisciplinaires.

Book De l utilisation de l ordinateur en consultation de m  decine g  n  rale

Download or read book De l utilisation de l ordinateur en consultation de m decine g n rale written by Quiterie Lagraula and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Introduction : L'utilisation de l'ordinateur en consultation interfère dans la relation médecin-malade. Certains craignent qu'elle ne la dégrade. Des stratégies communicationnelles visant à limiter les conséquences de cette interférence existent. Objectifs : Principalement, mettre en évidence une évolution de la satisfaction globale des patients après intervention auprès de leur médecin traitant. Secondairement, savoir si certaines attitudes quant à cette utilisation avaient de l'importance aux yeux des patients. Méthode : Etude prospective. Le contexte a été rappelé aux praticiens participants via l'envoi d'une plaquette d'information à lire. Il leur a été fait part de certaines stratégies communicationnelles faciles à mettre en œuvre. Le ressenti de leurs patients a été recueilli par questionnaire et leur niveau de satisfaction globale quant au déroulement des consultations a été évalué avant et après l'intervention. 32 médecins généralistes ont été recrutés et 234 de leurs patients ont été interrogés. Résultats : Pour 87.2 % des patients, aucune évolution du niveau de satisfaction globale n'a été constatée après intervention. 71 % des patients se sont dits très satisfaits. 82 % des interrogés ont apprécié de pouvoir interagir avec leur médecin sans interruption même lorsqu'il travaillait sur l'ordinateur. Avoir un accès direct aux informations portées à l'écran ou stockées dans l'ordinateur intéressait 17.5 % des patients. Un sentiment de confiance a souvent été noté en marge des questionnaires. Conclusion : L'utilisation de l'ordinateur en consultation n'altérait pas le niveau de satisfaction globale des patients. Malgré une puissance statistique faible, les résultats de l'étude étaient cohérents avec ceux de la littérature. L'intervention de cette recherche n'a pas permis d'élever ce niveau de satisfaction. Pour prolonger cette réflexion, d'autres études doivent être menées pour préciser les types de formation à mettre en place pour perfectionner les compétences communicationnelles des praticiens informatisés dans un objectif d'amélioration de la qualité de l'offre de soins.

Book Evaluation d un simulateur de consultation virtuelle en m  decine g  n  rale

Download or read book Evaluation d un simulateur de consultation virtuelle en m decine g n rale written by Seav Leng Cheng and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 124 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: L'essor des Technologies de l'Information et de la Communication (TIC) a permis le développement de simulateurs de consultation virtuelle sur ordinateur appelés Patients Virtuels. Ces logiciels permettraient à leurs utilisateurs de développer, entre autres, leur raisonnement clinique. Le simulateur de consultation Alphadiag, crée en partenariat avec l'Université Claude Bernard Lyon 1, s'inscrit dans l'intégration des TIC dans l'enseignement médical. L'objectif principal de ce travail était d'évaluer la perception des étudiants vis à vis de l'utilisation du simulateur de consultationflAlphadiag en formation médicale initiale. Une étude pilote descriptive a été réalisée auprès d'étudiants volontaires inscrits en 5ème année de médecine de la Faculté de Médecine Lyon-Est. Au préalable, 4 cas cliniques inspirés de situations-types du référentiel métier et compétences en médecine générale ont été conçus spécifiquement pour l'évaluation du simulateur Alphadiag. Un questionnaire évaluant l'outil et chacun des 4 cas cliniques a été renseigné par tous les participants volontaires au cours de 2 sessions. Un pré-test et un post-test ont également été renseignés pour chaque cas clinique. Un test des rangs de Wilcoxon pour données appariées a été réalisé pour comparer les moyennes des pré-tests et des post-tests. Vingt étudiants ont accepté de participer à l'évaluation du simulateur Alphadiag. La grande majorité d'entre eux a trouvé le logiciel facile d'utilisation (85%), réaliste (100%) et convivial (100% ). La totalité des étudiants a jugé le logiciel intéressant comme outil pédagogique (100%). La majorité des étudiants a jugé les cas cliniques intéressants, utiles pour leur formation, de bonne qualité et d'un intérêt identique ou supérieur par rapport à un cas clinique classique. Une amélioration non statistiquement significative des connaissances théoriques a été observée pour chacun des 4 cas cliniques. Ces résultats devront être confirmés par une étude ultérieure afin de vérifier les bénéfices du logiciel à long terme sur le développement du raisonnement clinique des étudiants. Avant l'intégration de ce simulateur dans le curriculum médical, son type d'utilisation sera à définir (formative ou sommative). Son utilisation en formation médicale initiale offrirait la possibilité d'un apprentissage mixte (présentiel et à distance) ce qui renforcerait probablement la motivation des étudiants. Une attention particulière sera à porter sur la qualité des cas cliniques qui devront être validés par des experts cliniciens et enseignants, afin de permettre leur labellisation universitaire

Book Ethics and Sport in Europe

Download or read book Ethics and Sport in Europe written by Dominique Bodin and published by Council of Europe. This book was released on 2011-01-01 with total page 202 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Defending ethics in sport is vital in order to combat the problems of corruption, violence, drugs, extremism and other forms of discrimination it is currently facing. Sport reflects nothing more and nothing less than the societies in which it takes place. However, if sport is to continue to bring benefits for individuals and societies, it cannot afford to neglect its ethical values or ignore these scourges. The major role of the Council of Europe and the Enlarged Partial Agreement on Sport (EPAS) in addressing the new challenges to sports ethics was confirmed by the 11th Council of Europe Conference of Ministers responsible for Sport, held in Athens on 11 and 12 December 2008. A political impetus was given on 16 June 2010 by the Committee of Ministers, with the adoption of an updated version of the Code of Sports Ethics (Recommendation CM/Rec(2010)9), emphasising the requisite co-ordination between governments and sports organisations. The EPAS prepared the ministerial conference and stepped up its work in an international conference organised with the University of Rennes, which was attended by political leaders, athletes, researchers and officials from the voluntary sector. The key experiences described in the conference and the thoughts that it prompted are described in this publication. All the writers share the concern that the end result should be practical action - particularly in terms of the setting of standards - that falls within the remit of the EPAS and promotes the Council of Europe's core values.

Book Abnormal

  • Release : 2016-09-01
  • ISBN : 1784786403
  • Pages : 485 pages

Download or read book Abnormal written by Michel Foucault and published by Verso Books. This book was released on 2016-09-01 with total page 485 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Three decades after his death, Michel Foucault remains one of the towering intellectual figures of the last half-century. His works on sexuality, madness, the prison, and medicine are enduring classics. From 1971 until his death in 1984, Foucault gave public lectures at the famous Collge de France. These seminal events, attended by thousands, created the benchmarks for contemporary social enquiry. The lectures comprising Abnormal begin by examining the role of psychiatry in modern criminal justice, and its method of categorising individuals who "resemble their crime before they commit it." Building on the themes of societal self-defence developed in earlier works, Foucault shows how defining "normality" became a prerogative of power in the nineteenth century, shaping the institutions-from the prisons to the family-meant to deal with "monstrosity," whether sexual, physical, or spiritual. The Collge de France lectures add immeasurably to our appreciation and understanding of Foucault's thought.

Book The Patient Will See You Now

Download or read book The Patient Will See You Now written by Eric Topol and published by Basic Books. This book was released on 2016-10-25 with total page 386 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The essential guide by one of America's leading doctors to how digital technology enables all of us to take charge of our health A trip to the doctor is almost a guarantee of misery. You'll make an appointment months in advance. You'll probably wait for several hours until you hear "the doctor will see you now"-but only for fifteen minutes! Then you'll wait even longer for lab tests, the results of which you'll likely never see, unless they indicate further (and more invasive) tests, most of which will probably prove unnecessary (much like physicals themselves). And your bill will be astronomical. In The Patient Will See You Now, Eric Topol, one of the nation's top physicians, shows why medicine does not have to be that way. Instead, you could use your smartphone to get rapid test results from one drop of blood, monitor your vital signs both day and night, and use an artificially intelligent algorithm to receive a diagnosis without having to see a doctor, all at a small fraction of the cost imposed by our modern healthcare system. The change is powered by what Topol calls medicine's "Gutenberg moment." Much as the printing press took learning out of the hands of a priestly class, the mobile internet is doing the same for medicine, giving us unprecedented control over our healthcare. With smartphones in hand, we are no longer beholden to an impersonal and paternalistic system in which "doctor knows best." Medicine has been digitized, Topol argues; now it will be democratized. Computers will replace physicians for many diagnostic tasks, citizen science will give rise to citizen medicine, and enormous data sets will give us new means to attack conditions that have long been incurable. Massive, open, online medicine, where diagnostics are done by Facebook-like comparisons of medical profiles, will enable real-time, real-world research on massive populations. There's no doubt the path forward will be complicated: the medical establishment will resist these changes, and digitized medicine inevitably raises serious issues surrounding privacy. Nevertheless, the result-better, cheaper, and more human health care-will be worth it. Provocative and engrossing, The Patient Will See You Now is essential reading for anyone who thinks they deserve better health care. That is, for all of us.

Download or read book Dying for Growth written by Jim Yong Kim and published by . This book was released on 2000 with total page 736 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Is economic growth killing the poor? The Institute for Health and Social Justice brings us the answers in Dying for Growth. An extraordinary collection of fourteen hard-hitting case studies from Haiti to the US, Dying for Growth exposes the interests behind a system that consigns a fifth of the world's population to live (and die) on less than a dollar a day. Rooted in the lives of people waging heart-wrenching struggles against a new, systemic form of poverty, these studies don't just document inequality -- they pinpoint its underlying causes.Looking at the effects of international restructuring strategies on the poor, the increasing control trans-national corporations exert over world health, and the impact of U.S. drug policy on global inequality, Dying for Growth debunks the myths of global capitalism, including: Myth: Throwing loans at developing nations will cure poverty.Fact: As shown in Sickness Amidst Recovery: Public Debt and Private Suffering in a Peruvian Shanty Town, loans can make things worse.Myth: Getting rid of big government automatically improves the standard of living.Fact: Cutting services can lead to calamity, as detailed in Neoliberal Economic Policy, State Desertion and the Russian Health Crisis. Myth: The free market is a panacea.Fact: There's nothing liberating about modern capitalism, as demonstrated in 'Todo Bajo Control': The Costs of 'Free' Trade to Mexican Maquiladora Workers.Dying for Growth concludes with an extensive section on alternatives to standard models. Included is a chapter on health and revolution in Cuba, The Threat of a Good Example, and a plan for action, Pragmatic Solidarity: What You Can Do.With passionrarely found in works of comparable analytic rigor, Dying for Growth tells the stories of people trapped in the machine of growth, and compels readers to recognize that the problem of inequality is not one of insufficient resources, nor even of inefficiency -- the problem is power.

Download or read book Your Mindful Compass written by Andrea Maloney Schara and published by . This book was released on 2013-12-01 with total page 318 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Your Mindful Compass" takes us behind the emotional curtain to see the mechanisms regulating individuals in social systems. There is great comfort and wisdom in knowing we can increase our awareness to manage the swift and ancient mechanisms of social control. We can gain greater flexibility by seeing how social controls work in systems from ants to humans. To be less controlled by others, we learn how emotional systems influence our relationship-oriented brain. People want to know what goes on in families that give rise to amazing leaders and/or terrorists. For the first time in history we can understand the systems in which we live. The social sciences have been accumulating knowledge since the early fifties as to how we are regulated by others. S. Milgram, S. Ashe, P. Zimbardo and J. Calhoun, detail the vulnerability to being duped and deceived and the difficulty of cooperating when values differ. Murray Bowen, M.D., the first researcher to observe several live-in families, for up to three years, at the National Institute of Mental Health. Describing how family members overly influence one another and distribute stress unevenly, Bowen described both how symptoms and family leaders emerge in highly stressed families. Our brain is not organized to automatically perceive that each family has an emotional system, fine-tuned by evolution and "valuing" its survival as a whole, as much as the survival of any individual. It is easier to see this emotional system function in ants or mice but not in humans. The emotional system is organized to snooker us humans: encouraging us to take sides, run away from others, to pressure others, to get sick, to blame others, and to have great difficulty in seeing our part in problems. It is hard to see that we become anxious, stressed out and even that we are difficult to deal with. But "thinking systems" can open the doors of perception, allowing us to experience the world in a different way. This book offers both coaching ideas and stories from leaders as to strategies to break out from social control by de-triangling, using paradoxes, reversals and other types of interruptions of highly linked emotional processes. Time is needed to think clearly about the automatic nature of the two against one triangle. Time and experience is required as we learn strategies to put two people together and get self outside the control of the system. In addition, it takes time to clarify and define one's principles, to know what "I" will or will not do and to be able to take a stand with others with whom we are very involved. The good news is that systems' thinking is possible for anyone. It is always possible for an individual to understand feelings and to integrate them with their more rational brains. In so doing, an individual increases his or her ability to communicate despite misunderstandings or even rejection from important others. The effort involved in creating your Mindful Compass enables us to perceive the relationship system without experiencing it's threats. The four points on the Mindful Compass are: 1) Action for Self, 2) Resistance to Forward Progress, 3) Knowledge of Social Systems and the 4) The Ability to Stand Alone. Each gives us a view of the process one enters when making an effort to define a self and build an emotional backbone. It is not easy to find our way through the social jungle. The ability to know emotional systems well enough to take a position for self and to become more differentiated is part of the natural way humans cope with pressure. Now people can use available knowledge to build an emotional backbone, by thoughtfully altering their part in the relationship system. No one knows how far one can go by making an effort to be more of a self-defined individual in relationships to others. Through increasing emotional maturity, we can find greater individual freedom at the same time that we increase our ability to cooperate and to be close to others.
