[Network medicine and health services research in urology]. Urologe A. 2020 Dec 14;: Authors: Schönthaler M, Schlomm T Abstract It is the aim of the Medical Informatics Funding Scheme and other national and local projects for digital networking in healthcare to facilitate the exchange and use of patient data between institutions in compliance with data protection regulations. This requires the integration of data from various sources-such as digital workplace systems, laboratory systems, picture archiving and communication (PAC) systems or tumor boards-into a data warehouse or research databases. Digital networking of service providers and research institutions will open access to high-performance and precision medicine (e.g., virtual molecular tumor boards) for even more patients, thereby providing data for basic and care research. Network medicine will establish the translational link between basic research (e.g., genome research) and patient care. Digitally integrated "real world" patient data will also facilitate a detailed analysis of health care and the quality of treatments. PMID: 33315136 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
