Abstract:
Is it possible to manage severe health care associated infections in high risk departments based on online infectious diseases specialists consultations? And in which way can we take advantage of a clinical portal for the exchange of consultations on infectious patients as a real productive tool for e-learning and distance education?
Let’s analyze how a major hospital in Milan responded to these questions by creating a portal that allows to manage the requests for infectious diseases consultations coming from different internal Departments, also giving the opportunity to young specializing doctors and experienced colleagues pertaining to other disciplines to evaluate for continuing medical education purposes the diagnostic and therapeutic approaches taken in the treatment of high-risk patients.
