The most widely used means of synchronous telemedicine is videoconferencing.

The Canadian Adverse Events Following Immunization Surveillance System(CAEFISS) was developed to provide a national monitoring system for reporting adverse events and suspected adverse events following immunization. The objectives of the system are to : ensure continued safety of marketed vaccines in Canada; monitor adverse effects that may be caused by a vaccine; identify any unusually high rates of adverse events, both with individual vaccines and individual lots of vaccine; provide timely information that can be made available to potential recipients as well as health care providers so that they can weigh the risks and benefits of immunization, and identify areas that require further epidemiologic investigation and research or problems that require immediate investigation.

Le Système de surveillance des effets secondaires associés aux vaccins (SSESAV) vient de changer son nom à Système canadien de surveillance des effets secondaires suivant l'immunisation (SCSESSI). Ce nouveau nom est conforme aux normes internationales et met l'accent sur le fait qu'on déclare des effets consécutifs à l'immunisation qui ne sont pas nécessairement associés au vaccin. Le Système canadien de surveillance des effets secondaires suivant l'immunisation (SCSESSI) a été créé comme système de surveillance national visant la déclaration des effets secondaires et des effets secondaires suspects consécutifs à une immunisation. Voici les objectifs du système : assurer l'innocuité continue des vaccins commercialisés au Canada; surveiller les effets secondaires qui peuvent être causés par un vaccin; noter les taux anormalement élevés des effets secondaires tant des vaccins individuels que des lots de vaccins individuels; fournir des renseignements opportuns qui peuvent être mis à la disposition des récipiendaires possibles et des fournisseurs de soins de santé afin de pouvoir évaluer les risques et les avantages de l'immunisation; noter les domaines qui requièrent d'autres études et recherches épidémiologiques ou les problèmes qui exigent une enquête immédiate.

The Canadian Cochrane Network and Centre(CCNC) shares The Cochrane Collaboration's vision : Healthcare decision making throughout the world will be informed by high quality, timely research evidence. The Cochrane Collaboration will play a pivotal role in the production and dissemination of this evidence across all areas of health care. While the CCNC supports Collaboration's worldwide efforts, our focus is on making this vision a reality in Canada. The mission is to foster evidence-based healthcare decision making by identifying and supporting individuals in Canada who wish to become involved with the Cochrane Collaboration, and by promoting the awareness, appreciation, distribution and use of Cochrane systematic reviews of healthcare intervention.

CHRIMCY would have the unique mandate and framework to identify reserach themes and to harness reserach expertise cross the country, and to focus on priority issues affecting the health of mothers, children and youth.
