Gestroomlijnde geriatrische en oncologische evaluatie op basis van IC-technologie voor holistisch patiëntgericht zorgbeheer voor oudere multimorbide patiënten KU Leuven
Population is aging and the number of complex multimorbid patients to manage will increase sharply. Disease-centred approach is not appropriate to manage these patients. Change to a patient-centred approach will simplify care pathways, secure management and treatment decision making and decrease healthcare costs. It will be a real breakthrough for daily practice with multiple impacts that must be quantified. GERONTE multimorbid ...
