OBJECTIVES: The characteristic properties of the modern healthcare system are presented by integration of information technology capabilities and harmonization of their use in industry. Aim. To create new system of telecommunication interaction between doctor and patient – specialized internet portal. METHODS: The study was carried out to create web portal. The software project - shell management website with two interfaces: for professionals and patients was developed. Simultaneously with design and creation of an internet portal, 156 children with bronchial asthma (BA) were examined and their medical data were reviewed. RESULTS: -agonist and Omalizumab, the average dose - 450 mg / 4 weeks) were included in the project and had received the personal individual access (a couple of unique login/password to own page). The personal page after entering the own individual login / password allows patient to type in synchronous/asynchronous mode indicators of peak flow, symptoms, using of basic therapy and  rescue medication in a special tables, the level of asthma control (ACT- test), and remotely – to ask a question to specialist. Patients with severe BA exacerbations, who were in the intensive care unit, also patients who don’t perceive long-term significant decline in respiratory function, had issued devices to determine oxygen saturation (SpO, pulsoximeter) to monitor this indicator and to exclude development of life-threatening conditions. The specialist interface contains information about each patient to evaluate remotely in synchronous/asynchronous mode patient condition, therapy adherence and control of BA CONCLUSIONS: The results of preliminary analysis of using of this web portal show increase of adherence to prescribed treatment, improving of quality of life, reduction the incidence of exacerbations, that confirms clinical and economic feasibility of using internet technologies.
