E health in Nigeria Current Realities and Future Perspectives. A User Centric...Ibukun Fowe
In this era of the digital revolution, innovative computer software programs and Information and communications technologies (ICTs) are disrupting different industries of most economies and the healthcare sector is one of the nascent and emerging opportunities for technology disruption and innovation. This is an “inevitable” welcome development as Global health innovation is at the forefront of embracing the use of technology solutions in various parts of the world to improve access to health services and medicines, and Nigeria is not to be an exception. This symposium is focused on asking the fundamental questions; how much impact are e-health applications making in the Nigerian health sector and how do we improve the level of impact and
effectiveness of these applications via a user-centric approach?
Taking these proactive steps serve to ensure that we focus on the real needs of the Nigerian people and put in place quality and safety measures that will give users the confidence needed to use e-health applications and solutions adequately and appropriately. This symposium invites key-stakeholders in the e-health
ecosystem to share their views on the pains and gains of e-health as of today and how to shape the future of e-health in Nigeria (and similar countries). Some of the presentations and panelist sessions will include real field experience and user-centered qualitative research that will elicit the current level of impact and the real needs of e-health users in the southwest region of Nigeria.
This document provides an overview of the 2012 mHealth report from Ruder Finn London. It contains the following key points:
1. mHealth, or mobile health, uses smartphones, tablets, and other mobile devices to help manage healthcare and enable more independent living as populations age and chronic diseases rise.
2. A survey found that UK smartphone and tablet users are interested in health apps but prefer speaking to doctors in person. Top reasons for not using health apps included having no need and finding them unhelpful.
3. The mobile health app market is growing rapidly and expected to reach $1.3 billion in 2012. However, more investment is still needed to develop useful apps that meet consumer and healthcare professional
iMinds insights on citizen health empowermentiMindsinsights
As more people are living longer than before and with chronic disease on the rise, disease prevention alone is no longer enough. Citizens need to take more control over their health – by giving them greater access to their personal health information and equipping them with tools and insights to better manage their lifestyles.
iMinds insights is a quarterly publication providing you with relevant tech updates based on interviews with academic and industry experts. iMinds is a digital research center and incubator based in Belgium.
More mobile phones are sold globally over 24 hours than babies born - the proliferation of mobile phones is now outpacing the human population. It should come as no surprise that the obtaining and sharing of health information thru mobile is projected to grow exponentially. Mobile in fact is the only media time that is currently growing.
No matter the regional or local audience---The creation of mobile strategies and campaigns are inherently vast, encompassing; m.sites, apps, social, banners, SMS/MMS, gaming, QR codes, video, augmented reality and much more.
Given the infinite canvas of mobile marketing, in this presentation we’ll explore the importance of an engaging mobile experience that ultimately adds value and improves the users life.
Mobile is truly an indispensable part of all our lives in this hyper-connected world where 91% of adults have their mobile within arm's reach 24/7. And like never before this is the era of the Mighty Mobile in health, wellness and fitness!

Lesson:
The Future of Community Health Nursing
Introduction:
As we look to the future, nurses focused on population health concerns will
continue
to play an essential role in improving the health of our nation and the world. Increased emphasis on health promotion and illness prevention will help to build a culture of health. Technology can play an important role in this effort. "Nursing informatics (NI) is the specialty that integrates nursing science with multiple information and analytical sciences to identify, define, manage, and communicate data, information, knowledge, and wisdom in nursing practice" (American Nurses Association, 2014, para. 1).
Community health nurses have been pioneers in the use of information systems. Long ago, they recognized the value of electronic health records to store, transport, and report data online. The need to collect and report aggregate data has spurred the digitization of community and public health records. Also, community health nurses have understood the value of handheld computing devices that allow them to access and document information while on the go, thus freeing them from the need to tote paper records or go to the office to chart. Information technology has influenced the way that community health nurses carry out their daily functions in profound ways.

The Power of Social in health and healthcareD3 Consutling
This document summarizes key points about the power of social networks in health and healthcare. It discusses how social media is increasingly important for patients and providers. Patients are using social platforms to find support from others experiencing similar health issues and to learn about new treatments. Some healthcare providers are effectively using social media to engage patients and share medical expertise. The document also describes several digital health startups that are connecting patients, caregivers, and medical professionals through social platforms to improve health outcomes.

mICF Barcelona 002 - Welcome and introductions to mICF partnership workshopStefanus Snyman
Proceedings of the mICF PARTNERSHIP WORKSHOP held on 9-10 October 2014 in Barcelona, Spain. This is an international collaborative of the Functioning and Disability Reference Group of the World Health Organisation’s Family of International Classifications (WHO-FIC) developing a mobile application for the International Classification for Functioning, Disability and Health
The Application Of Mobile Technologies For Public HealthMelissa Williams
This document discusses the current and potential future uses of electronic health records and e-referral systems between healthcare providers. It describes how eHealth records can improve care coordination by allowing different practitioners, hospitals, and providers easy access to a patient's full health history. Current issues with eHealth adoption in Australia are also examined, such as a lack of clear policies and understanding of benefits. The document argues that eHealth systems could save billions through more efficient medication management, disease treatment, and reduced rates of adverse medical events.
Consumer facing digital health technologies such as apps, wearables, and websites have grown rapidly in popularity. However, obesity and diabetes rates continue to rise in the US. While many users say technologies help them track health and ask doctors new questions, the overall health of populations has not improved proportionately. Barriers to the success of these technologies include a lack of standards, concerns over privacy of personal health data, and low adoption rates by healthcare providers. Health literacy may be needed to help users apply insights from technologies effectively and drive meaningful behavior changes for better health outcomes.
The 12th annual Health 2.0 fall conference was held in September 2018 in Silicon Valley. With over 2,000 attendees from various healthcare industries, the conference highlighted several emerging trends, including the rise of telehealth and remote patient monitoring to provide more convenient care at home. Other prominent themes included the importance of behavioral science and digital tools for managing chronic disease, concerns about privacy and data ownership as more health data is collected, and the need for partnerships across healthcare to advance solutions through shared learning.
2015 Health Trends: New challenges for a changing industry
In the second of their 4-part annual trend report series, GSW takes a closer look at healthcare. From evolutions in doctor-patient relationships to strategies in benefit design to the changing mind-set of physicians, a new landscape takes shape.
This document discusses a project called "The Futures of Health" that aimed to explore how healthcare and well-being may change in the future. Over 12 months, a 20 person team and 150+ health leaders identified 250+ signals of changing healthcare models. Major themes of change were identified, like new approaches to treatment and caring technologies. Scenarios of what healthcare may look like in 2025 were created. Design principles were developed to influence future healthcare design, like keeping medical records accessible and designing for patient experience.

1) Silver surfers (seniors aged 65+) are more interested in using digital tools to manage their health than to manage healthcare costs. They are engaging in health management activities like weight and cholesterol monitoring at higher rates than less tech-savvy seniors.
2) Silver surfers represent an attractive target market for Medicare plans because of their strong technology use for health management and higher rates of health-related activities that can lead to better health outcomes.
3) Venture capital investment in digital health tools for seniors, like activity trackers, has increased significantly in recent years in line with silver surfers' stated willingness to use such technologies.
FINAL APPROVED Digital transformation of the health sector - summary record o...SochaBlue
The document discusses the opportunities and challenges of digital transformation in the health sector. It states that transformation is fundamentally a cultural change where technology provides tools to improve healthcare outcomes. While the role of doctors will change with new technologies, they are unlikely to be replaced. For health systems to successfully adopt digital tools, organizations need capabilities in their workforce, an understanding of customer needs, and courage to change practices. Key drivers of digital health include rising healthcare costs of aging populations and a shift towards preventative care models over the traditional treatment of sickness.

This document discusses consumer health and is divided into several sections. It begins with an introduction that defines consumer health as developing the ability to evaluate and utilize health information, products, and services effectively. It notes that all people are consumers of these and must make wise selections. The next section outlines 10 learning competencies around differentiating reliable and unreliable health information. It also discusses evaluating health services and professionals. The document provides several pre-assessment activities, including a crossword puzzle and case study, to gauge existing knowledge on consumer health topics.
This document discusses key concepts in consumer health, including health information, products, and services. It provides examples of each and explains how people acquire health information from various sources. Reliable sources include licensed professionals while unreliable sources are those not qualified to provide information. The document also discusses different types of health services providers like physicians from various specializations, healthcare practitioners, allied health professionals, and healthcare facilities. Finally, it covers health insurance and examples in the Philippines like PhilHealth and HMOs.

Digital Banking in the Cloud: How Citizens Bank Unlocked Their MainframePrecisely
Inconsistent user experience and siloed data, high costs, and changing customer expectations – Citizens Bank was experiencing these challenges while it was attempting to deliver a superior digital banking experience for its clients. Its core banking applications run on the mainframe and Citizens was using legacy utilities to get the critical mainframe data to feed customer-facing channels, like call centers, web, and mobile. Ultimately, this led to higher operating costs (MIPS), delayed response times, and longer time to market.
Ever-changing customer expectations demand more modern digital experiences, and the bank needed to find a solution that could provide real-time data to its customer channels with low latency and operating costs. Join this session to learn how Citizens is leveraging Precisely to replicate mainframe data to its customer channels and deliver on their “modern digital bank” experiences.

Bram Verhoef, Head of Machine Learning at Axelera AI, presents the “How Axelera AI Uses Digital Compute-in-memory to Deliver Fast and Energy-efficient Computer Vision” tutorial at the May 2024 Embedded Vision Summit.
As artificial intelligence inference transitions from cloud environments to edge locations, computer vision applications achieve heightened responsiveness, reliability and privacy. This migration, however, introduces the challenge of operating within the stringent confines of resource constraints typical at the edge, including small form factors, low energy budgets and diminished memory and computational capacities. Axelera AI addresses these challenges through an innovative approach of performing digital computations within memory itself. This technique facilitates the realization of high-performance, energy-efficient and cost-effective computer vision capabilities at the thin and thick edge, extending the frontier of what is achievable with current technologies.
In this presentation, Verhoef unveils his company’s pioneering chip technology and demonstrates its capacity to deliver exceptional frames-per-second performance across a range of standard computer vision networks typical of applications in security, surveillance and the industrial sector. This shows that advanced computer vision can be accessible and efficient, even at the very edge of our technological ecosystem.
Dandelion Hashtable: beyond billion requests per second on a commodity serverAntonios Katsarakis
This slide deck presents DLHT, a concurrent in-memory hashtable. Despite efforts to optimize hashtables, that go as far as sacrificing core functionality, state-of-the-art designs still incur multiple memory accesses per request and block request processing in three cases. First, most hashtables block while waiting for data to be retrieved from memory. Second, open-addressing designs, which represent the current state-of-the-art, either cannot free index slots on deletes or must block all requests to do so. Third, index resizes block every request until all objects are copied to the new index. Defying folklore wisdom, DLHT forgoes open-addressing and adopts a fully-featured and memory-aware closed-addressing design based on bounded cache-line-chaining. This design offers lock-free index operations and deletes that free slots instantly, (2) completes most requests with a single memory access, (3) utilizes software prefetching to hide memory latencies, and (4) employs a novel non-blocking and parallel resizing. In a commodity server and a memory-resident workload, DLHT surpasses 1.6B requests per second and provides 3.5x (12x) the throughput of the state-of-the-art closed-addressing (open-addressing) resizable hashtable on Gets (Deletes).

Defining wellness: a combination
of looks and health
Do you look at yourself in the
mirror and think about how you
look and whether you are in good
shape? Do you approve, or are
there areas you wish to improve?
Drawing on data from several
recent consumer surveys,
this Ericsson ConsumerLab
report examines how satisfied
consumers are with their overall
wellness and how it relates
to their use of the internet for
health and fitness purposes.
In this report we represent
consumers’ views on their own
wellness by combining two related
aspects: satisfaction with their
looks as well as with their health.
In a broad 23 country sample, we
see that satisfaction with looks
and health are indeed related.
When asked to judge both aspects
on a 5-point scale ranging from
completely satisfied to not satisfied,
10 percent selected ‘completely
satisfied’ with both health and
looks. Another 40 percent were
at least ‘satisfied’ with both
aspects – adding up to 50 percent
of consumers being satisfied
with their overall wellness.
Figure 1a shows that there were
only small differences in the
views between men and women
on a global level. Differences
were only slightly bigger when
looking at country variations.
There are also surprisingly small
demographic differences, as
seen in Figure 1b. While older
age groups may suffer more
from ailments, overall levels of
satisfaction with their wellness
remain on par with other groups.

While only 25 percent of consumers are not satisfied
with their looks or with their health, attitudes to wellness
vary widely. On a country level, Figure 2a shows
that only 1 percent of Japanese and South Korean
consumers are completely satisfied with their wellness,
however as many as 29 percent of Indians and
36 percent of South Africans are completely satisfied.
Figure 2b shows that there are extremely large regional
differences in overall wellness satisfaction. Does this
mean that the Japanese, the South Koreans and others
with low satisfaction like the Swedes, Russians and
Australians are unfit, whereas Mexicans, South Africans,
Indonesians and Indians are extremely fit? No, it just
means that people’s perception of their wellness is
relative to where they live.

THE SOCIAL CONSTRUCT
Some people perceive the body to be a purely
biological entity, whereas others – most notably
the famous French philosopher and social theorist
Michel Foucault – think of the body as an entirely
social construction. Professor Chris Shilling writes in
his bookThe Body and SocialTheory (1993) that the
body is not only a result of both biological and social
processes, it is to some extent transformed by social
factors and relationships.

How we view wellness changes with cultural trends.
In this report, we focus on the impact that the online
culture in general, and the recent increase in the
use of smartphones and apps, has on wellness.
Wellness may not be a typical focus for early
adopters of technology. For example, among the
different wellness groups we are looking at in this
report, smartphone ownership is on the same level
across all of them – from those unsatisfied with
their wellness to those completely satisfied.
However, those satisfied with their wellness have very
specific views on information and communications
technology. Figure 3 shows that among those who
are completely satisfied, 47 percent see the cloud
as being essential for storing personal information,
while 60 percent say it is important to manage online
information. 55 percent also think a product’s look and
style is important, while 59 percent buy technology
products to fulfill certain needs and not just for fun.
This implies that cloud, privacy, design and functionality
needs have to be fulfilled simultaneously in order for
connected wellness services to become successful.
Fulfilling one or two of these requirements may not
be enough.
Those who are completely satisfied with their
wellness also say they are the first to try new beauty
and care products and services, as well as new
health approaches. For this reason, we believe that
fitter people will be early adopters of connected
wellness technology, not those with health issues.

THE BODY IS AN
IMPROVEMENT PROJECT
The idea of the quantified self has been in the
public eye a lot recently. A typical example of
self-quantification is to keep track of how many
calories are eaten during the day, for example
by using a diary or taking photographs to
document meals. A more recent example is to
use a wearable device to automatically monitor
behaviors such as various kinds of movement,
and analyze the results using a cloud service.
Our global consumer data, surveying more than
54,000 mobile phone owners across 49 countries,
shows that more than half of those who quantify their
behavior also use wearables. Two-thirds of those who
use wearables also quantify their behavior. In fact,
71 percent of consumers are equally as interested
in quantifying themselves as they are in wearables.
This implies that in the consumer’s mind, quantification of
behavior today starts with wearables. It also means that
consumers see an opportunity to improve their health
and fitness using various kinds of connected technology.

Wearables around the world
When looking at self-quantification activity and use
of wearables on a global scale, two things stand out
very clearly.
Firstly, there are considerable regional differences,
highlighting how cultural considerations have a
strong impact on the use of wearables.
Secondly, interest levels are still much higher than
actual use. Consumers may be delaying purchase,
thinking that as smartphones already perform similar
tasks, wearables may not yet have found the right
level of design and functionality. Figure 4 shows the
regional variations in interest levels and use. Although
on average 15 percent of consumers already quantify
their activities, on average an additional 23 percent
are interested in doing so. Figure 5 shows consumer
interest levels in wearables. While an average of
12 percent use wearables today, twice as many want to,
making the current adoption potential reach beyond a
third of global consumer markets.
Indications in South Korea, the home market of many
new wearable products, reinforce the idea that
adopters of wellness technology are still waiting for
these devices to improve both on functionality and
design. 16 percent of South Koreans use wearables
today, but as many as another 35 percent are
interested in doing so in the future, which adds up
to more than half of all South Koreans.

Longer life
With 12 percent of consumers around the world
already using wearables, they are no longer just a
novelty. Instead, consumers are clearly starting to
use these devices as part of a project to improve their
wellness, when it comes to both looks and health.
In fact, consumers expect that wearables will make
it possible to monitor and correspondingly adjust
behaviors, and as a result, will let them live healthier
and potentially longer lives. However, people are
at least as interested in using wearables to handle
stress as they are in improving their physical fitness.
Consumers believe that monitoring and regulating their
stress levels could increase life expectancy by 2 years
on average, as seen in Figure 6. Traditional jogging
apps and other technologies monitoring physical
activity are still sought after, with consumers believing
they will increase their life expectancies by 1.9 years.
Our research shows that smartphone owners see
cloud-based services of various kinds giving them the
potential to live healthier and longer lives – whether the
technology can be worn or not.
Consequently, monitoring methods go beyond
smartphones and wearables. Cups and plates that
measure the intake of calories, salt and unhealthy
ingredients are believed to increase life expectancy by
1.8 years and those that identify food allergies could give
an extra 1.3 years on average. Pillows and sheets that
monitor sleep patterns and medicine bottles that regulate
medicine intake would potentially add 1.1 years each.
Most importantly, hopes for increased life expectancy
go beyond personal devices and services. By indicating
that self-driving cars and internet-regulated traffic
will play a part, consumers are highlighting that their
individual wellness is also a societal concern.

Enhancing personal wellness does not only mean
improved monitoring and understanding of the
body. It also entails having better knowledge
about, and ultimately increased control over, the
environments that we expose ourselves to.
We asked consumers about society-related health
concepts and found high levels of interest. 66 percent
said a smartphone that checks the water quality of public
facilities and compares it with similar facilities nearby
would be useful. 62 percent would like a city microclimate
monitor on their smartphone that locates cool areas
on hot days, and less polluted areas in times of smog.
Wearing a bracelet to continuously monitor air quality and
pollution levels appealed to 60 percent of those asked.
Uptake of services like these may be initially driven
by the individual’s need for protection from health
hazards. However, these services could create more
explicit demands on a societal level when consumers
use measurements to pressure authorities into
action. As an example, 55 percent of consumers
already want a wearable ecometer to select the
most environmentally friendly commuting choice.
As seen in Figure 7, consumers in Delhi, Beijing and
São Paulo, who are facing bigger environmental
challenges, show higher interest and could potentially
drive change at a faster pace than in cities like New York,
London or Stockholm. Thus, interest in wellness on a
personal level may inspire change on a societal level.

Change will start in cities
When, and if, wellness-driven change
on a societal level happens, it is likely
to occur in city centers first and then
spread to other geographical areas.
As Figure 8a shows, 42 percent of
consumers would use a heart rate
monitoring ring that syncs with their
phone and alerts them when their
heart rate reaches a dangerous level
every day. 33 percent want their
smartphones to collect medical
stats in a digital health network
that physicians can access, and
48 percent say they would use a
posture sensor that gives cues
about body movements and future
injury risks on a daily basis.
Between one-third and half of
consumers predicted that they
would use health services at
least daily – which is much higher
than concepts we tested in other
areas, such as communication
with authorities or traffic-related
concepts. For example, while
as many as 74 percent were
interested in car or bike sharing,
less than one-quarter said they
would use this service every day.
But more importantly, Figure 8b
shows that interest in all of these
concepts is significantly higher in
city centers than in suburbs.
On its own, this highlights that
the pace of lifestyle change is
higher among city center dwellers.
If we factor in projected use
frequency, these results become
even more interesting.
Whereas wellness may easily be
written off as a private concern, it
is of broad popular interest. It will
spur technological development
with high usage that will have the
potential to transform society at a
quicker pace than any other area

A new ecosystem
Although there is potential for wellness to cause
fast-paced consumer-driven societal change, what
may hold it back is the complexity of the ecosystems
that need to develop for this to happen. When we
asked people who they believe would be the main
supplier for wellness-related services, they saw the
need for different players to take the lead, depending
on the nature of the service.
While three out of the seven concepts tested were
seen to be driven by medical service providers, two
of the concepts were seen as the responsibility of city
authorities, and the remaining two concepts should be
provided by technology companies and environmental
protection organizations respectively.
Given that the main service providers are expected
to differ widely, the ecosystem to join this will be
complex. Our research indicates that the platform
to make all of this happen will come from the player
most experienced in handling personal information
in accordance with consumer expectations. In a
previous Ericsson ConsumerLab report − The Personal
Information Economy − we saw that people think
medical information is highly sensitive. Figure 3 also
showed that those who are likely to adopt wellness
services early on not only view using the cloud for
personal information as essential, but they also value
the integrity of that information more than others.
Finally, our research shows that although an ecosystem
entails cooperation between several parties, consumers
want some control over the flow of their personal
information. Figure 11 shows that authorities were seen
by consumers as the second largest wellness service
provider, but in the Ericsson ConsumerLab Smart
Citizens report, only 19 percent thought that authorities
should be able to forward their personal information to
approved companies. Likewise, as many as 66 percent
of consumers want full control over the dissemination of
their information by authorities.
Although many players will try to deliver wellness
services that meet the demand for function and
design, the question of who consumers will trust
to handle the transfer of their information between
services remains open.
