A hypermedia information system for the diffusion of telemedicine services

Since telemedicine is still developing as a discipline, information on research, on pilot applications and technologies needs to be widely diffused as do the results obtained in different health care contexts. In this paper we present a hypermedia system which offers information on teleassistance and telemonitoring taken from different sources and media. Criteria chosen in structuring the information and the basic functions of the prototype developed are described. In the last part an example of a working session is presented.
