The literature review examines whether big data analysis and data mining can substitute traditional data collection and analysis in healthcare. It summarizes 5 papers that discuss both the benefits and limitations of these new techniques. A key theme is that while data mining is useful for detecting patterns, the quality of the data being mined is paramount. Several papers note that data fragmentation, missing information, and incorrect entries still pose challenges. Proper data cleaning and management remain essential parts of the process that cannot be fully automated or replaced. The review concludes that both new technologies and traditional human data quality practices are needed to maximize the insights that can be gained.
