The Impact

El avance de la medicina, las prácticas quirúrgicas enmarcados en principios bioéticos y el descubrimiento de nuevas drogas inmunosupresoras consolidaron el trasplante como método terapéutico a nivel mundial aumentado la esperanza y calidad de vida de miles de habitantes en todo el mundo. Sin embargo, los órganos disponibles no son suficientes para dar satisfacción a la creciente demanda global de trasplantes -más de 87.000 en Europa. En Argentina, el Instituto Central Único Coordinador de Ablación e Implante -que impulsa, coordina y fiscaliza la procuración– informó que, en junio de 2018, los pacientes en lista de espera de órganos y tejidos (LE) y Enfermedad Renal Crónica ascendieron a 10.979.La finalidad de la investigación fue abordar la realidad argentina, su marco legal y vinculación con el “Modelo Español”, el procedimiento de ablación-trasplante; el sistema de asignación de órganos (“SINTRA”), las características de la nueva ley conocida como “Justina”. Y la importancia de repensar protocolos de actuación sanitario y judicial en los casos de pedidos de autorización judicial para la ablación de órganos y tejidos (muertes traumáticas o donaciones entre vivos) como así también la aplicación de nuevas Tecnologías de Información y Comunicación (TICs) en dichos procedimientos para garantizar la salud y seguridad jurídica, tanto de donantes como receptores.   The advancement of medicine, surgical practices framed in bioethical principles and the discovery of new immunosuppressive drugs consolidated transplantation as a therapeutic method worldwide, increasing the hope and quality of life of thousands of inhabitants worldwide. However, the availableorgans are not enough to satisfy the growing global demand for transplants - more than 87,000 in Europe. In Argentina, the Central Unique Institute Coordinator of Ablation and Implant - which promotes, coordinates and oversees the procurement - reported that, in June 2018, patients on the waiting list of organs and tissues (LE) and Chronic Kidney Disease amounted to 10979.The purpose of the investigation was to address the Argentine reality, its legal framework and its link with the "Spanish Model", the ablation-transplant procedure; the system of organ allocation ("SINTRA"), the new legislation features known as “Justine Law”. Finally, it is important to reconsider judicial and policeaction protocols in judicial authorization procedures for organ and tissue ablation (violent deaths or inter vivos donation);as well as the impact of Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs) in said procedures to preserve the health and legal certainty of both donors and future recipients.

The Impact

Information and communication technologies (ICTs) are transforming health services throughout the world. Health information and technologies (HITs) involve application of information processing using computer for storage, retrieval, sharing and use of information and knowledge for communication by a pharmacist. Similarly electronic prescription (EP) services have made the dispensing and reimbursement processes more efficient. Maintenance of patient record become easy by using ICTs. Barcode identification of medicines can be used to reduce medicine administration errors and to improve the medication history of patients. Telecare using digital communications technology provides healthcare consultations and other health care services to rural, old & handicap patients easily and improves their access to healthcare by reducing their hospital attendance. In developing countries like India, it is quite a challenging task to provide access to information and communication technologies. As the geographical diversity is also a challenging for implementation of ICTs at everywhere. Information and technologies are giving a way to access the data all over the globe. ICTs have brought transformation in education in all over the world. Information and technologies are removing barriers from learning education. ICT applications are becoming indispensable tools for traditional and vocational education. In the field of pharmaceutical sciences, ICTs can further enhance the quality of education. As lots of modifications and newer drugs are coming in the market, it is quite a challenging task to a pharmacist to update knowledge to serve the society in an efficient way. ICT can be utilized in health care to improve quality of patient centric services.

The Impact

The accelerated development of information and communication technologies (ICT) over the last three decades has encouraged researchers to analyse the impact of this phenomenon on the labour market. The potential decline in employment resulting from the proliferation of ICT may reduce access to basic energy services and even lead to energy poverty in the form of inability to heat the apartment as needed, allocating a significant part of revenues to expenses related to heating or problems with the timely payment of energy bills. Because access to energy is of fundamental importance for improving the quality of life and is crucial from the point of view of economic development, it is justified to verify the hypothesis that the accelerated development of ICT in EU countries may contribute to an increase in unemployment and, consequently, translate into a higher level of energy poverty. The described research results were obtained thanks to a comparative factor analysis based on secondary data. The analysis showed that in the period 2009–2019, the use of ICT had a limited impact on the unemployment rate in the EU and had a significant impact on reducing the level of energy poverty in EU Member States. As regards the impact of ICT factors on the level of energy poverty, only IP traffic showed a significant impact in this area. When it comes to the labour market, it was found that employment is chiefly influenced by economic factors such as labour costs.

As the world population rapidly ages, improving the quality of life (QOL) of the elderly and enabling them to age actively is increasingly becoming a global policy concern. In this context, emphasis is also given to information and communication technologies (ICTs) that may play a significant part in enhancing the QOL of the elderly. This review study explores the impact of Internet use on QOL of the elderly by examining available researches in this field. By searching on ADM Digital Library, WEB Science, ERIC, PsycINFO and PubMed databases, this study reviewed 25 studies published after 1990 that investigate the relationship between Internet use and QOL of elderly. The synthesis of the research findings indicates that the functional use of computer and Internet improves QOL for older people. The findings also provide a comprehensive perspective on the current state of knowledge and raises questions for further research.Keywords: elderly, Internet use, quality of life
