The COVID-19 pandemic has highlighted the necessity for agile health services that enable reliable and secure information exchange, but achieving proper, private, and secure sharing of EMRs remains a challenge due to diverse data formats and fragmented records across multiple dat ...
Acute care demands fast response and procedures from the healthcare professionals involved in the emergency. The availability of electronic medical records (EMR) enables acute care teams to access patient data promptly, which is critical for proper treatment. The EMR contains sen ...
This chapter reviews the common health data security and privacy challenges to provide an overview of the context—the concerns and the types of cybersecurity threats that healthcare institutions face. Also highlighted are the latest scientific work related to two primary solution ...

Research data sharing requires provision of adequate security. The requirements for data privacy are extremely demanding for medical data that is reused for research purposes. To address these requirements, the research institutions must implement adequate security measurement ...

Background: Acute stroke care demands fast procedures performed through the collaboration of multiple professionals across multiple organizations. Cloud computing and the wide adoption of electronic medical records (EMRs) enable health care systems to improve data availability an ...
Cross-organisation data sharing is challenging because all the involved organisations must agree on ‘how’ and ‘why’ the data is processed. Due to a lack of transparency, the organisations need to trust that others comply with the agreements and regulations. We propose to exploit ...

Cloud computing has many benefits relevant to the healthcare industry. Although the adoption of cloud services for healthcare systems is increasing, employment of cloud services raises many security and privacy concerns for patients and healthcare providers. We still lack a cl ...

For cross-sectoral sharing of health data, cloud services provide benefits regarding the availability of relevant information in critical situations. Nevertheless, storing electronic health records in the cloud may impact patient's privacy, since the cloud service provider might ...
Acute stroke care demands fast procedures and collaboration of different healthcare organisations and professionals. The development of cloud computing and the wide adoption of electronic health records (EHR) foster healthcare systems to improve data availability and potentially ...

Acute care demands the collaboration of multiple healthcare professionals and various organisations. During an emergency, the availability of Electronic Medical Records (EMR) allows acute care teams to access a patient's data promptly, which facilitates the decision-making pro ...

A Viewpoint Evaluating the Use of Decentralized Systems for Algorithmic Contact Tracing to Combat a Global Pandemic

The enormous pressure of the increasing case numbers experienced during the COVID-19 pandemic has given rise to a variety of novel digital systems designed to provide solutions to unprecedented challenges in public health. The field of algorithmic contact tracing, in particular, ...

Cyberattacks against healthcare institutions threaten patient care. The risk of being targeted by a damaging attack is increased when medical devices are used which rely on unmaintained legacy software that cannot be replaced and may have publicly known vulnerabilities. This r ...

In emergency care, fast and efficient treatment is vital. The availability of Electronic Medical Records (EMR) allows healthcare professionals to access a patient’s data promptly, which facilitates the decision-making process and saves time by not repeating medical procedures. Un ...
Digital technologies, such as Big Data analytics, artificial intelligence, cloud and high-performance computing are presenting new opportunities to transform healthcare systems, increase connectivity of hospitals and other providers, and therefore potentially and significantly im ...
Availability of medical records during an emergency situation is of paramount importance since it allows healthcare professionals to access patient's data on time and properly plan the next steps that need to be taken. Cloud storage has the potential to provide a solution to the ...
The blockchain is currently under the spotlight of trending technologies. It adds security to private applications in several areas of knowledge, and its versatility results in the development of multiple frameworks to meet the requirements of each application. Thus, it is a key ...
Electronic medical records (EMRs) are highly sensitive information shared among peers to keep up-to-date patient history. Providing security, privacy, and availability to these sensitive data is a challenge because, typically, after data publication the patient loses control over ...
This article describes an open source project for automatic activation of an electromechanical arm using myo-electric signals, servo motors, Arduino-based microcontroller, and arm parts printed in a 3D printer. The objective is toautomatically detect the muscular stimuli related ...
