Abstract :
The focal point in the debate on the management of the patient with chronic liver disease is the healthcare system and the health care services, with an accent on the health care provided at home, which can be discussed only when there is a connection integrated with the medical assistance, providing useful information. This paper discusses in theoretical synthesis (definitions, terms, classification), accompanied by empirical evidence, matters regarding the chronic diseases, followed by comments on the integration of the software applications in the management of the patient with chronic liver disease and the ethical concerns it involves. We believe that all the activities implicated illustrate the complexity of the management of the patient with a chronic disease, which concentrates on the minimization of the probability for complications and strives to offer a quality of life as best as possible.
