Community pharmacists are critically placed in the patient care chain being an extended frontline within primary healthcare networks across Europe. They are trained to ensure safe and effective medication use, a crucial and responsible role, extending beyond the common misconception limited to just providing timely access to medicines for the population. Technology-wise, eHealth being committed to an effective, networked, patient-centered and accessible healthcare would prove a real asset in this direction by achieving improved therapy adherence with better outcomes and direct contribution to a cost-effective healthcare system. In this work, we present PharmActa, a personalized eHealth platform that addresses key features of pharmaceutical care and enhances communication of pharmacists with patients for optimizing pharmacotherapy. PharmActa empowers patients by providing pharmaceutical care services, such as drug interactions tools, reminders for assisting adhesion and compliance, information regarding adverse drug reactions, as well as pharmacovigilance along with related tools for healthcare management. In addition, it allows the pharmacists to review the medication history in order to provide personalized pharmaceutical care services; thus enhancing their role as healthcare providers. Finally, a mechanism allowing such a system to be interconnected with a developed medical repository following European and International interoperability standards, is also presented. Thus far, the evaluation results presented in this work indicate that PharmActa can be of great benefit to healthcare professionals, especially pharmacists and patients.

社区药师在患者护理链中处于至关重要的位置，是整个欧洲主要医疗网络中扩展的一线服务。他们接受过培训，以确保安全有效地使用药物，发挥关键和负责任的作用，并超越了常见的误解，仅限于为民众提供及时的药物。从技术角度来看，致力于实现有效，网络化，以患者为中心且可访问的医疗保健的eHealth将通过实现更好的治疗依从性，更好的结果以及对具有成本效益的医疗保健系统的直接贡献而证明在这一方向上的真正资产。在这项工作中，我们介绍了PharmActa，这是一个个性化的eHealth平台，可解决药物护理的关键特征，并增强药剂师与患者之间的沟通以优化药物疗法。PharmActa通过提供药物护理服务来增强患者的能力，例如药物相互作用工具，辅助粘附和依从性的提醒，有关药物不良反应的信息以及药物警戒以及用于医疗保健管理的相关工具。此外，它还允许药剂师查看用药史，以提供个性化的药物护理服务；从而增强他们作为医疗保健提供者的作用。最后，还提出了一种机制，可以使这种系统与遵循欧洲和国际互操作性标准的已开发医疗资源库互连。到目前为止，这项工作中提出的评估结果表明，PharmActa可以对医疗保健专业人员，尤其是药剂师和患者带来极大的好处。
