The occurrence of toxoplasmosis during pregnancy raises numerous problems. Determination of the time of the maternal infection is the first problem since we know that the frequency and gravity of fetal involvement vary according to the term of the pregnancy. Then, with information obtained from prenatal diagnostic tests (sonogram, amniocentesis, fetal blood sampling), it is important to recognize infected fetuses and advocate a management which goes beyond therapeutic abortion. Finally, the final problem is the follow-up of these children; in fact, after all these diagnostic and therapeutic measures, it is unfortunate that many children become lost to follow-up after the first year.

Background: Learning health systems (LHS) have the potential to use health data in real time through rapid and continuous cycles of data interrogation, implementing insights to practice, feedback, and practice change. However, there is a lack of an appropriately skilled interprofessional informatics workforce that can leverage knowledge to design innovative solutions. Therefore, there is a need to develop tailored professional development training in digital health, to foster skilled interprofessional learning communities in the health care workforce in Australia.

The new maintenance engineers become self-taught and learn from daily dedication, from solving repetitive problems, from exchanging experiences with a colleague, from reading a recommended book and little else.
