Finding Solutions

 

 

Opportunities: ICT and Health



Information and communications technology (ICT)

essential infrastructure and tools, great enabler to 



people 

for 



knowledge

 creation, sharing and dissemination.

boost the 



innovative capacity

 of all sectors and 

contributes to more than 40% of overall 

productivity

 

growth


 

(EU KLEMS, 2007 in EC, 2009).  

by facilitating greater access to 



health

 and 


education

 

services, and creating 



economic

 opportunities for 

disadvantaged groups

 

(Daly, 2003, K. Chen, 2004, Jensen, 2007; Mercer, 2001;

eHealth



 

 

Information science, computer science, and health 



care. 

Resources, devices, and methods required to 

optimize the acquisition, storage, retrieval, and use 

of information in health and biomedicine. 

Tools: computers but also clinical guidelines, 

formal medical terminologies.

Health informatics 


 

 


Opportunities

Broadband infrastructure continuously improving



Open source software becoming more popular

Computerization is ubiquitous in all institutions 



but security is certainly a valid concern

Free email groups vs. institution-based



Increasing public awareness on the benefits of 

ICT

Stories of TELEMEDICINE

Ortho: wash-out the antibiotic for 

one week then CS/debridement

Batanes: 23/M Post Traumatic Osteomyelitis



Batanes: 23/M Post Traumatic Osteomyelitis

Saved patient P8400 for one week 

“unnecessary” stay in Manila

Saved PGH P10,500 by asking 

antibiotic wash-out to be done in 

Batanes General Hospital instead of 

the PGH surgical bed


Sarangani: Tinea imbricata among 

IP Community (teledermatology)

Message of dermatologist:

...It appears to be a lovely case of 



Tinea imbricata or Tokelau 

ringworm caused by the 

dermatophyte Trichophyton 



concentricum. This is a relatively 

rare dermatophytosis but is found 

among Filipinos in Mindanao or other 

rural areas. The first reported case 

was in 1789 by Williams Dampier-- of 

a Filipino from Mindanao. One early 

case report was on a Filipino from 

Mindoro (1962 MC Fernandez of 

PGH). A co-resident of mine CTan 

reported one case in the 1990s, a 

Badjao patient from MIndanao if I 

recall.  

You really should make a case report 

of your patient, and try to document 

any other cases existing in her 

community...

76

Results -PHILIPPINES

• Decisions of face to face TBDC is comparable to electronic 

TBDC.


• Electronic TBDC decisions are at par with the culture 

results


• F2F TBDC has a lesser delay as compared to eTBDC

 Technology infrastructure



 Physician comfort with technology

=

 F2F diagnosis using the culture

• e-TBDC diagnosis was more sensitive and 

specific vs. F2F diagnosis


78

CONCLUSIONS

• The use of “iPath” for hosting e-TBDCs is 

a potential alternative to the current 

practice of face-to-face TBDCs

• Using telehealth solution, can improve 

TBDOTS coverage 

• Reduction delay in diagnosis related to 

the conventional process – not 

demonstrated: 

Limitations in technical capacities of 



physicians and IT infrastructure

8 years of Telemedicine in the 

Philippines

• Telemedicine is possible in geographically 

isolated and disadvantaged areas (GIDA)

• Telemedicine is fraught with ethical, social, 

and legal challenges (read: should only be 

done by trained health professionals and 

certified personnel). Protocols are important.

• Telemedicine is expensive for few sites, but 

costs go down with more sites


80

8 years of Telemedicine in the 

Philippines

• Telemedicine – connects. Links rural 1* care 

MD and specialists – professionally, socially

• Telemedicine – is a supportive tool

1* care MD can take care of majority of cases but 



appreciate the support

• Current benefits are not enough → 

improvements needed
