Abstract
During the past few years, a new and fast growing trend, defined as Personalized healthcare (pHealth) rose. It concerns the individualization of prevention, treatment and well being procedures available through the healthcare system. pHealth is realized through a number of capabilities stemming from the micro and nanosciences, information and communication technologies (ICTs). Electronic health record is one of them. Electronic health records are a fundamental support needed not only by healthcare providers, but also for individual patients. The idea of individuals collecting, organizing, and keeping in file folders their own paper-based medical information is not new. The widespread diffusion of the ICTs and the Internet has made this idea feasible using personal computers, personal digital assistants or smart-phones. We considered the management of healthcare data in the familiar environment and we designed and developed a system for family health record. The system permits an easy compilation and provides an effective visualization of the clinical data concerning family members also for friendly printing tasks.Pubblicazioni consigliate
