Produktbeschreibung
This book clarifies consumer and personal health informatics and their relevance to precision medicine and healthcare applications. Personal Health Informatics covers a broad definition of this emerging field, with individuals not simply consuming health but as active participants, researchers and designers in the healthcare ecosystem. The world of health informatics is constantly changing given the ever-increasing variety and volume of health data, care delivery models that shift from fee-for-service to value-based care, new entrants in the ecosystem and the evolving regulatory decision landscape. These changes have increased the importance of the role of patients in research studies for understanding work processes and activities, and the design and implementation of health information systems. Therefore, personal health informatics now provide research tools and protocols to engage within individual contexts when developing solutions, which can improve clinical practice, patientengagement and public health.

Personal Health Informatics offers a snapshot of this emerging field, supported by the methodological, practical, legal and ethical perspectives of researchers and practitioners. In addition to being a research reader, this book provides pragmatic insights for practitioners in designing, implementing and evaluating personal health informatics in healthcare settings. It represents an excellent reader for students in all clinical disciplines and biomedical and health informatics to learn from the case studies provided in this emerging field.

Dr. Thomas Wetter is a Medical Informatics scholar with twelve years of experience in industry research and 30 years of experience in academic research and teaching in Biomedicine. A graduate and PhD in Mathematics from Aachen Technical University he worked most of his career on applying formal methods to biomedical problems. After eight years of physiological research in Aachen he joined the IBM Heidelberg Scientific Center. Here he researched and published on Human Computer Interface design, Artificial Intelligence, Natural Language Processing, Voice Recognition, and Software Quality. In 1997 he was appointed a full professor for Medical Informatics at Heidelberg University. Besides teaching in the curricula Medical Informatics and Medicine his research interests were in clinical applications of Voice Recognition and Artificial Intelligence and later in Consumer Health Informatics. In the years till 2018 his assignments included the management of a CME academy, the Heidelberg part of an international student exchange program (IPHIE), associate editor of the International Journal of Medical Informatics, and deputy chair and later chair of the IMIA WG Consumer Health Informatics. Besides various articles in scientific journals he is the editor of conference proceedings in artificial intelligence and author of the Springer 2016 textbook "Consumer Health Informatics. New Services, Roles, and Responsibilities." During his active time Dr. Wetter spent sabbaticals at the University of Utah and the University of Washington. After his retirement he was engaged by Ben-Gurion-University of the Negev in Be'er Sheva, Israel to help develop a curriculum in Medical Informatics.   Xinxin (Katie) Zhu, MD, PhD, FAMIA, FIAHSI.
