title: [Impact of new information and communication technologies (NTIC) on hospital administration and patient management. Care Network for Diagnosing and Treating Neurologic Emergencies].
abstract: The combination of specialised in-patient management, the development of diagnostic and therapeutic tools, the standardisation of procedures and organisation of the dies will allow for improving the prognosis of neurological patients seen in emergency situations. In order to achieve this objective, the Networks for Diagnosing and Treating Neurological Emergencies (RAIDS-UN) in Franche-Comté (FC) aim to better the quality of in-patient management for emergency on-set neurological pathologies such as traumatic brain injuries and strokes, the preparation and structuring of the dies for diagnosis and treatment, and assistance in neurology decision making. Based upon the needs of networks which approach the problem from two different directions--the RAIDS-UN/FC network (for neurological emergencies) and the RAIDS-UN/AVC network (for prevention and treatment of strokes)--they should both be able to benefit from new information and communication technologies (ICTs) in order to promote and support innovations in practice and contribute to the improvement in quality and health promotion effectiveness. In light of these developments, one may better understand the significance of the School of Medicine's role in training experts, advisors and supervisors as well as in providing a high level of quality and effective continuing education. Since 2001, the expansion of the RAIDS-UN networks has emphasised the need for the development of new professional specialties arising on the border between technology and medicine. The operation of these networks requires a strong partnership with health professionals and strategically relies upon a regional dynamic interaction which includes the hospitals, the city, the institutions and the university. It is in this manner that the RAIDS-UN networks will support other initiatives such as the Towards Unity for Health project.
