VIRGIL-IMPACT
The VIRGIL-IMPACT platform evaluates the societal impact of drug resistance in terms of morbidity, monitoring and treatment costs. This allows to assess at the European level, the benefit of VIRGIL coordinated effort for the proper use of antivirals, and the cost/benefit of different approaches to prevent or combat viral drug resistance. A special emphasis is made on any important societal differences between European countries with different health care systems. To that aim, information is collected via Internet, analyzed and integrated into the general VIRGIL Web-site. Finally, the VIRGIL-IMPACT platform aims at developing a decision support system for the management of individual patients with antiviral resistance, taking into account efficacy, side effects, and costs. To achieve this goal, the system is based upon a probabilistic network, that integrates clinical data and specialized laboratory tests and yields information on chances of response, chances of clinically relevant side effects and costs of various treatment options. Therefore, its activities are organized as follows: |
|
Implementing VIRGIL�s IT platform: The VIRGIL Knowledge Generation and Distribution (vKGD) information system |
