Issues And Trends In Healthcare Delivery System

Issues And Trends In Healthcare Delivery System

The issues and trends in healthcare delivery are constantly changing. The COVID-19 pandemic is one recent issue that wreaked havoc on healthcare systems, causing a shortage of healthcare workers, high demand for medicines and supplies, and increased medical expenditure due to a lack of insurance. Other issues include rising healthcare costs and care fragmentation.

Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms-SNPs

Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms-SNPs

A single nucleotide polymorphism or SNP is a single nucleotide variation at a specific genomic position in a large population. It is the most prevalent type of sequence variation found in the human genome. Point mutations that occur in more than 1% of the population qualify as SNPs. These are present once every 1000 nucleotides on an average in the human genome. Replacement of a purine with another purine (A/G) or a pyrimidine with another pyrimidine (C/T) is known as a transition. In contrast,...

Health Literacy

Health Literacy

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...

Principles of Disease Surveillance

Principles of Disease Surveillance

Disease surveillance is the systematic collection, analysis, and interpretation of health data essential to the planning, implementation, and evaluation of public health practice. This process integrates data dissemination to entities responsible for preventing and controlling disease, injury, and disability. Surveillance systems provide crucial information for action, helping public health authorities make informed decisions to manage and prevent outbreaks, ensure public safety, optimize...

Steps in Outbreak Investigation

Steps in Outbreak Investigation

In the ever-evolving field of public health, statistical analysis serves as a cornerstone for understanding and managing disease outbreaks. By leveraging various statistical tools, health professionals can predict potential outbreaks, analyze ongoing situations, and devise effective responses to mitigate impact. For that to happen, there are a few possible stages of the analysis:

Area of Science:

Digital Health
Public Health
Epidemiology

Background:

Mobile health (mHealth) has become crucial for healthcare delivery and self-management, especially during the COVID-19 pandemic lockdowns.
The pandemic accelerated the adoption and research of mHealth technologies for public health initiatives.

Purpose of the Study:

To analyze academic publications on mHealth during the COVID-19 pandemic.
To identify key research trends, leading institutions, and geographical contributions in mHealth research related to COVID-19.

Main Methods:

A systematic keyword search for "mHealth" and "COVID-19" was conducted on Scopus.
Analysis included document types, publication years (2020-2022), leading countries, and institutions.
Co-occurrence keyword analysis identified major research clusters.

Main Results:

1125 documents were published between 2020-2022, with 1042 being journal articles, reviews, or conference papers.
The US led publications (335), followed by the UK (119) and China (79). Harvard Medical School published the most articles (31).
Key research clusters included "COVID-19, mHealth, mobile applications, and public health" and "telemedicine, telehealth, and health care delivery".

Conclusions:

mHealth research significantly expanded during the COVID-19 pandemic, highlighting its role in public health and healthcare delivery.
Future research should focus on the identified clusters to further understand mHealth's impact on population health and clinical outcomes.
