Very old studies and clinical experiences of physicians already signal the ability of some patients to feel subclinical signs. These patients are called sentinel patients because they can anticipate crisis very early and therefore intervene quickly to prevent them. Studies have shown that these patients develop these skills from their own experience, in steps which are similar to quasi-experimental research. They test and adjust their competence all the more easily as they have an objective external measure available. This faculty of patients suggests the possibility of using medical devices as a means of learning for patients to tutor themselves in support of this singular skill.
Résumé
De très anciennes études et expériences cliniques de médecins indiquent déjà la capacité de patients à ressentir des signes infra-cliniques. Ces patients sont appelés « patients sentinelles » car ils peuvent anticiper les crises très tôt et donc intervenir rapidement pour les prévenir. Des études ont montré que ces patients développent ces compétences à partir de leur propre expérience, selon des étapes qui s’apparentent à la recherche quasi-expérimentale. Ils testent et ajustent leurs compétences d’autant plus facilement qu’ils disposent d’une mesure externe objective. Cette faculté de patients suggère la possibilité d’utiliser des dispositifs médicaux comme moyen d’apprentissage pour les patients afin d’appuyer cette compétence singulière.
