Digital Health & Wellness Summit @ Mobile World Congress 20163GDR
The document discusses the growth of digital health data and Estonia's successful national health information system. It argues that a digital single market for health in Europe would empower citizens, improve health, and advance the digital economy by establishing a framework for individuals to actively manage their own health data across borders through value-adding services, oversight of data usage, and secure integration of information. Estonia aims to serve as an example for efficient digital services and citizen-centric healthcare through its national eHealth strategy and investments in areas like personalized medicine.
This document provides an overview of complementary and alternative medicine (CAM) in Europe. It discusses CAM's holistic approach and roots in traditional healing practices. The document notes that CAM is now used by about half of EU citizens and is practiced by around 145,000 dual-trained CAM/conventional medicine doctors and 160,000 CAM practitioners across Europe. However, CAM provision varies greatly by country. The document calls for steps to better integrate CAM into European healthcare systems in line with WHO recommendations, ensure adequate regulation and training of CAM providers, improve access to CAM products and therapies, and increase public investment in CAM research.
Overview of Estonian Health Information System Igor Bossenko
The document provides an overview of the Estonian Health Information System and Health and Welfare Information Systems Centre. It discusses HWISC's responsibilities in developing information systems and ensuring information security. It also outlines some of the main eHealth services in Estonia like the electronic health record, e-prescription, and digital imaging. The document highlights how Estonia's eHealth system copies the model of its e-government system in using the X-Road secure communication network and ID cards for authentication.
1. The document discusses opportunities for France and China to collaborate on improving China's healthcare system to address the country's changing demographic and economic landscape.
2. It outlines four priority areas: developing more patient-centric hospitals and health information systems, caring for an aging population, preventing and managing chronic diseases, and fighting infectious diseases.
3. France is well-positioned to offer relevant experiences and innovative solutions in these areas through its healthcare expertise, long-standing relationship with China, and companies working in areas like hospital design, elderly care, disease prevention and treatment.
Data protection ownership and portability a code of conduct for mHealth apps 3GDR
The document discusses data protection, ownership and portability in mHealth apps and whether current rules and regulations are fit for purpose. It provides an orientation on changing care models from hierarchical to integrated and from group-based to personalized. It reviews the history of mHealth and how technology is helping to achieve more affordable and personalized care. It then gives a status report on existing EU laws regarding medical devices, data protection and consumer rights as they apply to mHealth apps. It outlines member state actions and goals regarding mHealth as well as ongoing EU activities like a code of conduct and quality standards. Finally, it concludes that citizens must drive innovation, the digital divide must be avoided, and the legal framework works best with appropriate technology and governance.
The European, Chinese, and United States healthcare markets are a study of contrasts, each of which face a unique set of challenges and issues for their combined 2.4 billion citizens. Despite their differences, there are a number of opportunities for organizations to learn and profit through intercontinental collaboration on their paths to a more connected healthcare ecosystem. Panelists representing the three regions will provide an overview of their country’s unique healthcare landscape and offer a vision for a future of collaboration and progress.

The document summarizes a meeting discussing policy priorities for mental health in Belgium and the EU. It provides global context on the burden of mental illness, with anxiety and depression most common. Data is presented on government spending and suicide rates in various countries. The meeting objectives are to compare approaches to mental health diagnoses in different countries and make policy recommendations. Barriers to universal coverage for mental disorders are discussed. The EU's initiatives to address workplace wellbeing, youth mental health, and underserved groups are highlighted. Roundtable discussions center on social and health system factors affecting treatment journeys, and what countries can learn from each other. Conclusions will be presented on addressing acute mental health challenges across the EU.
The document summarizes a conference on healthy aging and longevity in Europe organized by the International Longevity Centre (ILC) Europe Network. It provides an agenda for the conference including sessions on prevention and health interventions to live longer, vaccination rates across Europe, and creating age-friendly cities. The document also shares results from ILC's Healthy Ageing and Prevention Index, which ranks countries on metrics like life expectancy, health spending, and environment. It finds gaps between Western and Eastern European countries and recommends increased investment in prevention to help populations age healthier and live longer.
Redefining lifelong learning webinar presentation slides.pptxILC- UK
We know that we’re living longer, which means many people will also be working for longer. One in seven people over 65 are still employed in the UK, but we’re still seeing challenges in our labour markets.
According to the ILC’s Healthy Ageing and Prevention Index, the UK’s work span is only 31.5 years, ranking the UK 47th out of 121 countries. Skills shortages driven by demographic change are hitting all sectors of the UK’s economy: by 2030, we could see a shortage of 2.6 million workers. On the other hand, if UK employment rates for those aged 50 to 64 matched the rates of those aged 35 to 49, the country’s GDP would increase by more than 5%.
One way to improve work span and employment is through lifelong learning. However, in the UK, as the Learning and Work Institute’s Adult Participation in Learning survey showed, rates of learning continue to fall with age. In 2023, only 36% of people aged 55 to 64, 24% of those aged 65 to 74, and 17% of those aged 75 and over said that they’d taken part in any kind of learning in the past three years.
To better understand the approaches in other countries, we consulted with experts in lifelong learning, both from the UK and globally. ILC's report, in collaboration with Phoenix Insights, Redefining lifelong learning: lessons from across the globe considers the approaches taken in Singapore, Japan, South Korea, Canada, Germany, the Netherlands and Sweden. While each country’s approach is different, and shaped by its wider cultural, political and economic context, there are some common threads including: learning culture; the range of learning opportunities on offer; levels of support and investment; and accessibility

The document summarizes the work of ILC (International Longevity Centre) on their prevention programme from 2019-2022, which included establishing the Healthy Ageing and Prevention Index. Some key activities included:
- Engaging stakeholders worldwide to build consensus on prevention and healthy aging issues
- Influencing international organizations like G20, WHO, and UN to prioritize prevention
- Launching the Prevention Index, which ranks 121 countries on metrics like life expectancy, health spending, and happiness
- Establishing a coalition of over 30 organizations to endorse and support the Index's goals
- Hosting numerous global forums to discuss findings and identify policy solutions
Alongside the G20 Health Ministers’ meeting in Gandhinagar, India, in August, ILC-India and ILC-UK held a joint high-level side event to amplify the importance of healthy ageing and prevention among the G20.
Plugging the gap: Estimating the demand and supply of jobs by sector in 2030ILC- UK
The UK economy could see a shortfall of 2.6 million workers by 2030 – almost twice the workforce of the NHS – as a result of population ageing, the COVID pandemic and Brexit.
These shortfalls will affect the whole economy, with manufacturing, retail, construction, transport, health and social care among the sectors projected to be hardest hit.
To plug these gaps, Government must introduce a comprehensive Workforce Strategy looking at:
How to support people to stay in the workforce for longer, e.g. by supporting healthy workplaces, supporting carers and creating flexible conditions that suit people’s needs.
How to ameliorate childcare costs and reintegrate people into the workforce following timeout for caring or a health need
The role of migration and automation in addressing major workforce gaps

Vaccine confidence in Central and Eastern Europe working lunchILC- UK
At this exclusive working lunch, we discussed the International Longevity Centre UK’s (ILC-UK) forthcoming report on vaccine confidence in Central & Eastern Europe (CEE).
During this event, we shared the findings from our policy publication on what we think should be the priorities for the G20 in India and the key messages we want to disseminate to ministers and world leaders. We heard from experts on the opportunities and challenges to engage India and the G20 with prevention and healthy ageing and identify further opportunities to maximise our engagement while at the G20 in September.
Final Marathon or sprint launch Les Mayhew slides 19 April.pptxILC- UK
Research by the International Longevity Centre UK (ILC) funded by Bayes Business School — based on Commonwealth Games competitor records since the inaugural event in 1930 — shows large differences in the longevity of medal winners compared to people in the general population that were born in the same year. A report finds that top-level sports people can live over 5 years longer than the rest of the population.

Part III - Cumulative Grief: Learning how to honor the many losses that occur...bkling
Cumulative grief, also known as compounded grief, is grief that occurs more than once in a brief period of time. As a person with cancer, a caregiver or professional in this world, we are often met with confronting grief on a frequent basis. Learn about cumulative grief and ways to cope with it. We will also explore methods to heal from this challenging experience.
Fexofenadine is sold under the brand name Allegra.
It is a selective peripheral H1 blocker. It is classified as a second-generation antihistamine because it is less able to pass the blood–brain barrier and causes lesser sedation, as compared to first-generation antihistamines.
It is on the World Health Organization's List of Essential Medicines. Fexofenadine has been manufactured in generic form since 2011.
Storyboard on Skin- Innovative Learning (M-pharm) 2nd sem. (Cosmetics)MuskanShingari
Skin is the largest organ of the human body, serving crucial functions that include protection, sensation, regulation, and synthesis. Structurally, it consists of three main layers: the epidermis, dermis, and hypodermis (subcutaneous layer).
1. **Epidermis**: The outermost layer primarily composed of epithelial cells called keratinocytes. It provides a protective barrier against environmental factors, pathogens, and UV radiation.
2. **Dermis**: Located beneath the epidermis, the dermis contains connective tissue, blood vessels, hair follicles, and sweat glands. It plays a vital role in supporting and nourishing the epidermis, regulating body temperature, and housing sensory receptors for touch, pressure, temperature, and pain.
3. **Hypodermis**: Also known as the subcutaneous layer, it consists of fat and connective tissue that anchors the skin to underlying structures like muscles and bones. It provides insulation, cushioning, and energy storage.
Skin performs essential functions such as regulating body temperature through sweat production and blood flow control, synthesizing vitamin D when exposed to sunlight, and serving as a sensory interface with the external environment.
Maintaining skin health is crucial for overall well-being, involving proper hygiene, hydration, protection from sun exposure, and avoiding harmful substances. Skin conditions and diseases range from minor irritations to chronic disorders, emphasizing the importance of regular care and medical attention when needed.
congenital GI disorders are very dangerous to child. it is also a leading cause for death of the child.
this congenital GI disorders includes cleft lip, cleft palate, hirchsprung's disease etc.
CLASSIFICATION OF H1 ANTIHISTAMINICS-
FIRST GENERATION ANTIHISTAMINICS-
1)HIGHLY SEDATIVE-DIPHENHYDRAMINE,DIMENHYDRINATE,PROMETHAZINE,HYDROXYZINE 2)MODERATELY SEDATIVE- PHENARIMINE,CYPROHEPTADINE, MECLIZINE,CINNARIZINE
3)MILD SEDATIVE-CHLORPHENIRAMINE,DEXCHLORPHENIRAMINE
TRIPROLIDINE,CLEMASTINE
SECOND GENERATION ANTIHISTAMINICS-FEXOFENADINE,
LORATADINE,DESLORATADINE,CETIRIZINE,LEVOCETIRIZINE,
AZELASTINE,MIZOLASTINE,EBASTINE,RUPATADINE. Mechanism of action of 2nd generation antihistaminics-
These drugs competitively antagonize actions of
histamine at the H1 receptors.
Pharmacological actions-
Antagonism of histamine-The H1 antagonists effectively block histamine induced bronchoconstriction, contraction of intestinal and other smooth muscle and triple response especially wheal, flare and itch. Constriction of larger blood vessel by histamine is also antagonized.
2) Antiallergic actions-Many manifestations of immediate hypersensitivity (type I reactions)are suppressed. Urticaria, itching and angioedema are well controlled.3) CNS action-The older antihistamines produce variable degree of CNS depression.But in case of 2nd gen antihistaminics there is less CNS depressant property as these cross BBB to significantly lesser extent.
4) Anticholinergic action- many H1 blockers
in addition antagonize muscarinic actions of ACh. BUT IN 2ND gen histaminics there is Higher H1 selectivitiy : no anticholinergic side effects
Congestive Heart failure is caused by low cardiac output and high sympathetic discharge. Diuretics reduce preload, ACE inhibitors lower afterload, beta blockers reduce sympathetic activity, and digitalis has inotropic effects. Newer medications target vasodilation and myosin activation to improve heart efficiency while lowering energy requirements. Combination therapy, following an assessment of cardiac function and volume status, is the most effective strategy to heart failure care.
