商品描述

This book looks at the integration of blockchain technology in healthcare settings, focusing on its potential to address security and privacy concerns of medical applications. From fragmented electronic health records (EHRs) to data breaches and interoperability issues, innovative solutions are necessary to unlock the full potential of health information and prevent the recurrence of such issues.

Blockchain offers a promising framework for addressing these challenges. Its decentralized, tamper-resistant nature holds the key to building trust and transparency in healthcare data management. By leveraging blockchain technology, secure, interoperable systems empower patients to take control of their health information while facilitating a seamless collaboration among healthcare providers. Throughout this book, the authors explore the fundamental principles of blockchain technology and its applications within the healthcare landscape. From EHRs and patient consent management to pharmaceutical supply chains and clinical research, this book examines how blockchain can drive efficiency, enhance security, and ultimately improve patient outcomes.

This book is intended for a broad audience, including healthcare professionals, patients, policymakers, and anyone interested in the intersection of technology and healthcare.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

本書探討區塊鏈技術在醫療環境中的整合,重點關注其解決醫療應用中的安全性和隱私問題的潛力。從零散的電子健康紀錄(EHRs)到數據洩露和互操作性問題,創新的解決方案對於釋放健康信息的全部潛力並防止此類問題的重演是必要的。

區塊鏈提供了一個有前景的框架來應對這些挑戰。其去中心化和防篡改的特性是建立醫療數據管理信任和透明度的關鍵。通過利用區塊鏈技術,安全且可互操作的系統使患者能夠掌控自己的健康信息,同時促進醫療提供者之間的無縫協作。在本書中,作者探討了區塊鏈技術的基本原則及其在醫療領域的應用。從電子健康紀錄(EHRs)和患者同意管理到製藥供應鏈和臨床研究,本書檢視了區塊鏈如何推動效率、增強安全性,並最終改善患者的健康結果。

本書適合廣泛的讀者,包括醫療專業人員、患者、政策制定者以及任何對技術與醫療交集感興趣的人士。
