Lecture series Improving patient & population health through innovative e-health interventions: "Use of e-Health as interface in patient-physician communication" - Prof Julien Mancini

e-health can have a major influence on patient-physician communication. All the new modes of electronic communication (e-mails, portal, apps, electronic medical record ± shared medical notes, tele-expertise, tele-consultation) can change the patient-physician relationship through different contact with physicians. Moreover the new instant exchange of medical data combined with increased use of PROMs/PREMs (patient-reported outcomes/experience measures) change the information available to both patients and clinicians with a potential impact on relationship.

Digital health literacy is defined as the ability to seek, find, understand and appraise health information from electronic sources and apply the knowledge gained to addressing or solving a health problem. It therefore becomes an important issue to ensure that social inequalities will not increase.

After this general introduction, the speaker will discuss the importance of digital literacy in this context and will focus on two examples linked to his research interests in oncology:

1. an example of how oncologist use ePROMs to modify the content of medical encounters;

2. an example of the development of research recruitment through online communities of patients.
