In the field of health care and prevention, there has been a progressing penetration of assistive health services such as personal health records, supporting apps for chronic diseases, or preventive cardiological monitoring.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn 2020, the range of personal health services appeared to be almost unmanageable, accompanied by a multitude of different data formats and technical interfaces. The exchange of health-related data between different healthcare providers or platforms may therefore be difficult or even impossible. In addition, health professionals are increasingly confronted with medical data that were not acquired by themselves, but by an algorithmic \"black box\". Even further, externally recorded data tend to be incompatible with the data models of classical healthcare information systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFrom the individual's perspective, digital services allow for the monitoring of their own health status. However, such services can also overwhelm their users, especially elderly people, with too many features or barely comprehensible information. It therefore seems highly relevant to examine whether such \"always at hand\" services exceed the digital literacy levels of average citizens.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn this context, this reprint presents innovative, health-related applications or services emphasizing the role of user-centered information technology, with a special focus on one of the aforementioned aspects.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Martin Wiesner\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 3036546804\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9783036546803\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Mdpi AG\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/11\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 222\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.50lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.61h x 6.69w x 0.75d","brand":"Martin Wiesner","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48113796088063,"sku":"9783036546803","price":78.63,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_d3a75061-fe25-488c-9758-c1c67ba127dd.jpg?v=1769617352","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/information-technologys-role-in-global-martin-wiesner-9783036546803","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
