Integrated Healthcare System01:20

Integrated Healthcare System

2.5K
An integrated healthcare system (IHS) is a set of organizations that provides for or arranges to provide coordinated and continuous service to a defined population. The IHS takes responsibility for that particular population's health status and outcome, both clinically and fiscally. An integrated healthcare system is a well-organized, well-coordinated, and collaborative network. The integrated delivery system is a network that connects different healthcare providers to deliver organized,...

Health Literacy01:21

Health Literacy

5.5K
Health literacy is an individual's or a community's capacity to comprehend, receive, read, and use relevant healthcare information and services. The World Health Organization (WHO, 2018) defines health literacy as the cognitive and social skills that determine the ability of individuals to gain access to, understand, and use information in ways that promote and maintain good health. As a result, the WHO helps individuals manage long-term health concerns, participate in preventative...

Patient-centered Care01:13

Patient-centered Care

3.2K
Patient-centered care involves delivering care beyond inpatient hospitalization. Reflective practice can enhance a patient-centered approach. Reflective practice is a process of reasoning that considers all aspects of the present situation, including practicalities, learning from personal practice, and consideration of patient needs. Patients appreciate care decisions made while considering their input. Involving the patient in their care provides the patient with a sense of contribution rather...

Secondary Healthcare System01:11

Secondary Healthcare System

2.1K
Secondary healthcare is offered by a specialist, generally in hospitals or clinics for patients referred by primary healthcare providers. It occurs when a person has an illness or injury that requires specific medical care. Secondary care is often referred to as acute care. Secondary care can range from uncomplicated care to repair a minor laceration or treat a strep throat infection to more complicated emergent care, such as treating a head injury sustained in an automobile accident. Whatever...

Combination Therapies and Personalized Medicine02:50

Combination Therapies and Personalized Medicine

6.3K
Combining two or more treatment methods increases the life span of cancer patients while reducing damage to vital organs or tissue from the overuse of a single treatment. Combination therapy also targets different cancer-inducing pathways, thus reducing the chances of developing resistance to treatment.
The combination of the drug acetazolamide and sulforaphane is a good example of combination therapy to treat cancer. The cells in the interior of a large tumor often die due to the hypoxic and...

Area of Science:

  • Health Informatics
  • Information Retrieval
  • Online Health Education

Background:

  • Online video consumption, particularly health-related content on YouTube, is rapidly increasing.
  • The quality of online health videos is a significant concern for health consumers.
  • Enhancing online health video quality can be achieved by linking them to reliable educational resources.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate the feasibility of a content-based recommender system.
  • To connect health consumers with reputable health educational websites from MedlinePlus based on YouTube video content.
  • To improve the quality and reliability of online health information.

Main Methods:

  • Utilized a dataset of health-related videos and metadata.
  • Employed semantic technologies (SNOMED-CT, Bio-ontology) for website recommendations.
  • Health professionals evaluated the relevance of recommended MedlinePlus websites using metrics like normalized discounted cumulative gain and precision at K.

Main Results:

  • The recommender system demonstrated high relevance in linking health videos to MedlinePlus websites, as rated by health professionals.
  • Normalized discounted cumulative gain scores ranged from 46% to 90% across different health topics.
  • The system proved effective in enriching general health, hypertension, and diabetes video content.

Conclusions:

  • The study confirms the feasibility of using semantic content-based recommender systems to enhance online health videos.
  • Further evaluation with end-users is recommended to assess acceptance in real-world information-seeking scenarios.
  • This approach offers a promising method for improving the quality of online health education resources.
