Description

Global Health Informatics: How Information Technology Can Change Our Lives in a Globalized World discusses the critical role of information and communication technologies in health practice, health systems management and research in increasingly interconnected societies. In a global interconnected world the old standalone institutional information systems have proved to be inadequate for patient-centered care provided by multiple providers, for the early detection and response to emerging and re-emerging diseases, and to guide population-oriented public health interventions. The book reviews pertinent aspects and successful current experiences related to standards for health information systems; digital systems as a support for decision making, diagnosis and therapy; professional and client education and training; health systems operation; and intergovernmental collaboration.
Discusses how standalone systems can compromise health care in globalized worldProvides information on how information and communication technologies (ICT) can support diagnose, treatment, and prevention of emerging and re-emerging diseasesPresents case studies about integrated information and how and why to share data can facilitate governance and strategies to improve life conditions
