商品描述

In recent years, there has been steady increase in the interest shown in both big data analytics and the use of information technology (IT) solutions to improve healthcare services. Despite the growing interest, there are limited materials, to addressing the needs and challenges posed by the activities and processes including the use of big data. From IT solutions' perspectives, this book aims to advance the deployment and use of big data analytics to increase patients' big data usefulness and improve healthcare service delivery.

The book provides significant insights and useful guide on how to access and manage big data, in improving healthcare service delivery. The book contributes a fresh perspective, which primarily comes from the complementary use of analytics approach with actor-network theory (ANT), and other techniques, in advancing healthcare service delivery. Accessing and managing healthcare big data have always been a challenging exercise. Due to the sensitivity of the health sector, the focus on patients' big data is from either technical or social perspective. Thus, the book employs sociotechnical theories, ANT and structuration theory (ST) as lenses to examine and explain the factors that enable and constrain the use of patients' big data for health services. By doing so, the book brings a different dimension and advance health service delivery.

Providing a timely and important contribution to this critical area, this book is a valuable, international resource for academics, postgraduate students and researchers in the areas of IT, big data analytics, data management and health informatics.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

近年來，對於大數據分析和利用資訊科技（IT）解決方案改善醫療服務的興趣持續增加。儘管有越來越多的興趣，但在應對包括大數據使用在內的需求和挑戰方面的資料有限。從IT解決方案的角度來看，本書旨在推進大數據分析的部署和使用，以提高患者的大數據價值和改善醫療服務交付。

本書提供了重要的見解和有用的指南，關於如何存取和管理大數據，以改善醫療服務交付。本書提供了一個新的觀點，主要是通過結合分析方法與行動者網絡理論（ANT）和其他技術，推進醫療服務交付。存取和管理醫療大數據一直是一項具有挑戰性的任務。由於醫療部門的敏感性，對患者的大數據的關注從技術或社會角度來看。因此，本書運用社會技術理論、ANT和結構化理論（ST）作為鏡頭，以檢視和解釋影響患者大數據在健康服務中使用的因素。通過這樣做，本書為健康服務交付帶來了不同的維度和進步。

本書對這一關鍵領域做出了及時且重要的貢獻，是IT、大數據分析、數據管理和健康信息學領域的學者、研究生和研究人員的寶貴國際資源。
