The popularization of the Internet, due in larger part to the advent of multifunctional cell phones, poses new challenges for health professionals, patients, and caregivers as well as creates new possibilities for all of us. This comprehensive volume analyzes how this social phenomenon is transforming long-established healthcare practices and perceptions in a country with one of the highest numbers of Internet users: Brazil. After an opening text that analyzes the Internet and E-Health Care as a field of study, the book comprises six parts. The first part introduces the emergence and development of the internet in Brazil, its pioneering experience in internet governance, digital inclusion, and online citizen participation. The second part is dedicated to internet health audiences by analyzing the cases of patients, the young, and the elderly seeking and sharing health information online, especially in virtual communities. The third part is dedicated to the challenges that the expansion of the internet in healthcare poses to all of us, such as the evaluation of the quality of health information available online and the prevention of the risks involved with online sales, cyberbullying, and consumption of prescription medicines. The fourth presents some innovative e-learning experiences carried out with different groups in Brazil, while the fifth part analyses some practical applications involving the Internet and health, including studies on M-Health, the Internet of things, serious games and the use of new information and communication technologies in health promotion. The last chapter analyses the future of healthcare in the Internet Age.The authors establish a critical and creative debate with international scholarship on the subject. This book is written in a direct and comprehensible way for professionals, researchers, students of communication and health, as well as for stakeholders and others interested in better understanding the trends and the different challenges related to the social phenomenon of the internet in health.

This book offers a brief introduction to the three main tools available to fight online health misinformation: health information quality assurance, digital literacy and fact-checking. These are the resources public institutions and civil society can use to deal with the current health infodemic. We are immersed in a huge flow of information that is multiplying rapidly worldwide in a short period of time on different topics. Health is one of the areas in which there is an increasing amount of information available and shared on digital media for a growing number of interested parties. If the information is reliable, up-to-date, scientifically sound and understandable, it can play a fundamental role in self-care practices, in reducing service costs, in disease prevention and in health promotion. On the other hand, if the information is incomprehensible, outdated, incomplete or incorrect, it can interfere with well-being, induce harm to individuals and to the society, and, in extreme situations, promote disease and facilitate death. Many health professionals and health services users and managers are unaware of the existing strategies to address this problem, so this book intends to help them. Strategies to Fight Online Health Misinformation: Health Information Quality Assurance, Digital Literacy and Fact-Checking will serve as a quick guide for health professionals and health services users and managers to the tools available to combat online health misinformation and how they work. Institutions must provide health information quality assurance with reliable sources and scientifically updated information written in simple language. The development of educational practices focused on the critical and creative use of information and communication technologies promote digital literacy. And journalists and public and private communications companies have developed fact-checking strategies to verify whether the information disclosed was obtained through reliable sources and assess whether it is true or false.
