ABSTRACT
Objetivo: analisar a legislação e as principais questões pertinentes ao armazenamento das informações relativas à saúde do paciente em bancos de dados, bem como as exceções ao dever de sigilo, à luz do Regulamento (UE) 2016/679 (novo Regulamento Geral de Proteção de Dados) e da Lei n.º 58/2019. Metodologia: por meio de uma revisão legislativa e doutrinária, confrontamos os dispositivos que abordam o direito à privacidade do paciente, a proteção do sigilo médico e o acesso de dados, analisando as exceções ao dever de sigilo que decorrem da lei e dos estatutos das ordens profissionais que tutelam o exercício das profissões. Resultados: a dispersão das normas que tratam a proteção de dados pode criar obstáculos à efetivação do direito e dúvidas acerca da interpretação do novo Regulamento Geral de Proteção de Dados. Conclusão: o novo Regulamento e a Lei n.º 58/2019 têm o escopo de sistematizar a matéria concernente à proteção dos dados, mas deverão ser confrontadas com a legislação interna portuguesa que aborde outras questões transversais, a exemplo das tratadas na Lei de Bases da Saúde em Portugal, no Regime Geral dos Arquivos e do Património Arquivístico, dentre outros, o que implica uma dificuldade acrescida ao utilizador do direito.
Objective: to analyze legislation and key issues related to the storage of patient data in databases and exceptions to confidentiality under Regulation (EU) 2016/679 (new General Data Protection Regulation) and Law No. 58/2019.Methods: through a review of legislation and doctrine, we contrast the provisions that address the patient's right to privacy, the protection of medical secrecy, and access to data, and analyze the exceptions to confidentiality arising from the law and the statutes of the professional codes that protect the practice of the professions. Results: the scattering of norms dealing with data protection may lead to obstacles in the realization of the right to data protection and to doubts in the interpretation of the new Regulation. Conclusion: the new Regulation and Law No. 58/2019 are suitable to systematize data protection. However, they must be confronted with Portuguese legislation that deals with other cross-cutting issues, such as the Portuguese Basic Health Law, the General Archives Law and others, which creates additional difficulties for the user of the law.

Metodología: a través de una revisión legislativa y doctrinaria, confrontamos las disposiciones que atienden el derecho a la intimidad del paciente, la protección del secreto médico y el acceso a los datos, analizando las excepciones al deber de secreto, que se derivande la ley y los estatutos que protegen el ejercicio de las profesiones. Resultados: la dispersión de normas que tratan de la protección de datos puede generar obstáculos para la realización del derecho a la protección de datos y dudas sobre la interpretación del Reglamento. Conclusión: el Nuevo Reglamento y la Ley n.º 58/2019 tienen el alcance de sistematizar la materia relativa a la protección de datos, pero deben confrontarse con la legislación interna portuguesa que aborda otras cuestiones transversales, como las tratadas en el Ley de Salud en Portugal, en el Régimen General de Archivos, entre otros, lo que implica una dificultad añadida para el usuario del derecho.

@#The paper, by taking genetic data as an example, conducts a comprehensive analysis on the challenges confronting the privacy of healthcare big data, discusses the protection strategies of private data from such aspects of analysis on alliance data, homomorphic encryption, hardware encryption and differential privacy. It also elaborates on the building of laws related to data security and privacy protection, and provides references for relevant study.
ABSTRACT
PURPOSE: The aim of this study was to elucidate clinical nurses' ethics germane to information literacy and perception of patient data privacy and thus help nurses to develop more positive and consolidated ethical values. METHODS: For this study a descriptive survey design was used. Participants were 142 nurses who worked in a hospital and completed self-report questionnaires. Data were collected from August 1 to 5, 2016 and were analyzed using independent t-test, ANOVA, Scheffé test, Pearson correlation coefficients, and stepwise multiple regression with SPSS 22.0. RESULTS: Ethical value had a positive correlation with information needs (r=.25, p=.002) in information literacy as well as in direct patient care (r=.27, p=.001), shift work (r=.20, p=.016), patient information management (r=.39, p<.001), and communication (r=.24, p=.004) in perception of patient data privacy. Patient information management, educational background, and age were significant variables predicting the level of ethical values and accounted for 21% of the variance. CONCLUSION: Ethical values education with particular emphasize on managing patient information should be encouraged for nurses who are younger and have a lower education level. Findings indicate a need for education programs to guide clinical nurses to utilize appropriate information when solving ethical challenges in every day nursing practice.

Wearable technology, widely applied in health and medical field, has become an important part of in-telligent healthcare and medicare. However, the data security and privacy protection of wearable health and medi-cal devices are greatly concerned and need to be solved. The characteristics of data security and privacy protection of wearable health and medical devices were thus analyzed and compared with those of traditional health and medi-cal devices. The related studies and laws on domestic and foreign wearable health and medical devices were summa-rized, and the advances, experiences and problems in domestic and foreign wearable health and medical devices were analyzed and compared in order to provide reference for establishing the mechanisms underlying their data se-curity and privacy protection.
ABSTRACT
The government had a plan to set up a new medical information law last October, which allows hospitals to share medical records of patients with given consent. The aim of this act is to manage and protect medical information effectively. However, civic groups and medical organizations strongly claim that there is a high possibility of leakage of individuals' private medical information that can raise conflicts of interest under the medical information act. Computerization of personal medical information is essential for the business efficiency, however, it may cause a serious damage to the society as well as to individuals should the information be used without the individuals' consent. In the age of knowledge and information, the improved medical service and its effectiveness via informatization is an unavoidable choice, however, it is also hoped that the issues of human rights be thoroughly considered in the process of medical informatization to prevent a potential aftermath to the people and the society.
