- Book 9 of 10: Healthcare Delivery in the Information Age
This in-depth book addresses a key void in the literature surrounding the Internet of Things (IoT) and health. By systematically evaluating the benefits of mobile, wireless, and sensor-based IoT technologies when used in health and wellness contexts, the book sheds light on the next frontier for healthcare delivery. These technologies generate data with significant potential to enable superior care delivery, self-empowerment, and wellness management. Collecting valuable insights and recommendations in one accessible volume, chapter authors identify key areas in health and wellness where IoT can be used, highlighting the benefits, barriers, and facilitators of these technologies as well as suggesting areas for improvement in current policy and regulations.
Four overarching themes provide a suitable setting to examine the critical insights presented in the 31 chapters:
- Mobile- and sensor-based solutions
- Opportunities to incorporate critical aspectsof analytics to provide superior insights and thus support better decision-making
- Critical issues around aspects of IoT in healthcare contexts
- Applications of portals in healthcare contexts
A comprehensive overview that introduces the critical issues regarding the role of IoT technologies for health, Delivering Superior Health and Wellness Management with IoT and Analytics paves the way for scholars, practitioners, students, and other stakeholders to understand how to substantially improve health and wellness management on a global scale.
