There
are three main features of public health that define the field and also provide
a contrast to the related field of medicine. Public health and medicine often
have the similar goals of reducing the impact of disease and improving health
and quality of life, but there are some notable differences between the two in
the methods of reaching these goals. The primary features of public health are
a (1) a view that all people should have healthcare access, regardless of
social position, (2) a focus on the health of populations rather than
individuals, and (3) a focus on prevention.
The
use of social media in public health is taking shape as Twitter and other forms
of social media are leveraged to identify potential outbreaks. Public
health data is rapidly increasing from all sources. Sensors, formerly
found only in hospital ICUs, are now portable and be used at home, and even sometimes
while walking. The potential for persistent public health monitoring may
be realized through introduction of machine-to-machine (M2M) communications,
embedded computing/wireless, and related technologies.
This
report evaluates the impact of social media, Big Data and analytics, and the so
called "Internet of Things (IoT)" on public healthcare. The
report evaluates specific companies, solutions, and applications. The
report includes analysis of Big Data and its anticipated use in public health.
