Internet Resources for Your
Kidney Foundation in 2003
and Beyond!
Kim Solez, M.D.
Every Audience Now Diverse!
Because the Internet is now mainstream, many of
you have already solved most of the Internet
related problems in your professional life. So
when it comes to creating resources for a kidney
foundation, you already know the basics of
creating web, email, and chat resources.
Nevertheless there are still many positive
surprises, technology advances which can
greatly enhance kidney foundation activities
which you probably are not aware of, video
conferencing, advanced searching. So this
presentation will have something for everyone!
NKF cyberNephrology Human Centered Computing
Fostering
nephrology’s embrace
of the Internet and
new technology since
1994 with Email and
web resources. ISN
homepage, websites
which allow virtual
attendance at
meetings.

Evidence-Based Medicine
Sir Austin Bradford Hill, British Researcher:
"All scientific work is incomplete- whether it be
observational or experimental. All scientific
work is liable to be upset or modified by
advancing knowledge. This does not confer
upon a freedom to ignore the knowledge we
already have, or to postpone the action that it
appears to demand at a given time. Who knows,
asked Robert Browning, but that the world may
end tonight? True, but on available evidence
most of us make ready to commute on the 8:30
next day."
NKF cyberNephrology provides:
Slide 5
Electronic/Internet versions of NKF publications,
professional and patient education and peer support
over the Internet using Email and web resources,
medical textbooks online, hands on workshops,
symposia, videoconferencing, and technology vision
for the future.
It is the embodiment of kidney medicine’s embrace of
technology.
A wealth of offerings for physicians, other nephrology
professionals, and patients and families at:
www.cybernephrology.org
NKF cyberNephrology can assist
your kidney foundation with:
Slide 6
•
Creation of web, email, and chat resources (AIM and
MSN messenger like, or IRC)
•
Recommending links for nephrology resources.

•
Recommending searching resources on your web
site.
•
Promotion of the resources you create for your
foundation.

The use of computers and the Internet should be
enjoyable, practical, and productive. Web, email,
chat resources should be easy to create.

Slide 8
NKF cyberNephrology - A
remarkable NKF innovation!
 In 1996 an NKF think tank recommended the creation
of NKF cyberNephrology, initiated in April 1997.
 Remarkably insightful, no other voluntary heath
organization has had similar technology impact.
Earlier Internet initiatives in other health disciplines dermatology, anesthesiology, and nursing - were
individual or institutional efforts.
 Now as a consequence of this NKF initiative,
nephrology has caught up to and surpassed these
other disciplines, now has Internet resources superior
to those in any other area!
Slide 9
All the More Remarkable Considering
Nephrology’s size vs. all of Medicine
 There are more than 800,000 physicians in the US and
only about 5,000 are practicing renal medicine, so
nephrologists represents only about 0.6% of total US
physicians.
 On the other hand, the cost of end stage kidney disease
care is very high: 18 billion US dollars per annum in
public and private money (source USRDS). This is nearly
2% of the 1 trillion dollar total annual health care budget
of the US and rising rapidly.
Slide 10
Unique Resources for Patients Not Found
In other Specialties
 NEPHKIDS - For parents of children with renal
disease, moderated by pediatric nephrologist.
 KIDNEYDISEASE - For adult patients with kidney
disease, moderated by 10 nephrologists all over the
world!
18 Email discussion groups in all connecting more than
3000 health professionals and patients.

Extending Internet knowledge from
nephrology to medicine in general!
Slide 23
 cyberMedicine - New Medicine http://www.cybermedicine.org
 Discipline upgrade from other areas which can learn
from nephrology - Critical Care Medicine
 cyberMedicine as part of the technology future search strategies - efficient information retrieval,
future of technology and the human spirit.

Internet Now Mainstream Searching - A Wonderful
World Out There!
General Search Tools
http://www.alltheweb.com/
Currently searching 3,151,743,117 web
pages
http://www.google.com/
Google - Searching 3,307,998,701 web
pages
Searching Web Pages of the
Past - “Wayback Machine”
http://www.archive.org/
Search 11 billion pages of the Wayback
Machine
The Internet Archive is building a digital
library of Internet sites and other cultural
artifacts in digital form. Like a paper library,
provides free access to researchers,
historians, scholars, and the general public.
Searching The “Invisible Web”
Database pages and pages with a ? In the
URL are excluded from standard searches.
Search engine databases are created by robot
programs called spiders, computer robot programs
that crawl the web seeking search engine content.
These spiders crawl or navigate the Web by
following the links in the web pages that are already
in the database of their parent search engine. If
there is no link to a page, a spider cannot "see" it.
They lack the ability to type or think of any string of
characters. They not only lack fingers for typing, but
also lack a brain capable of judgment.
Searching The “Invisible Web”
One can seach the Invisible Web using the following tools:

Video conferencing/
Telemedicine/Telepathology The
near future of medical
education and practice!
Internet video-conferencing affordable. There
are two practical ways to establish this:
1. Dedicated videoconferencing equipment from
Sony or Polycom using Internet2/Abilene
“research” Internet with guaranteed
bandwidth.
2. Desktop videoconferencing using iSight and
iChatAV on Macintosh G4 or G5 computers.
