商品描述

The COVID-19 pandemic upended the lives of many and taught us the critical importance of taking care of one's health and wellness. Technological advances, coupled with advances in healthcare, has enabled the widespread growth of a new area called mobile health or mHealth that has completely revolutionized how people envision healthcare today. Just as smartphones and tablet computers are rapidly becoming the dominant consumer computer platforms, mHealth technology is emerging as an integral part of consumer health and wellness management regimes.

The aim of this book is to inform readers about the this relatively modern technology, from its history and evolution to the current state-of-the-art research developments and the underlying challenges related to privacy and security issues. The book's intended audience includes individuals interested in learning about mHealth and its contemporary applications, from students to researchers and practitioners working in this field.

Both undergraduate and graduate students enrolled in college-level healthcare courses will find this book to be an especially useful companion and will be able to discover and explore novel research directions that will further enrich the field.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

新冠疫情顛覆了許多人的生活,並教會我們照顧自己的健康和福祉的重要性。科技進步和醫療發展使得一個名為「行動健康」或「mHealth」的新領域得以普及,徹底改變了人們對於醫療保健的想像。就像智慧型手機和平板電腦迅速成為主要的消費者電腦平台一樣,mHealth 技術正在成為消費者健康和福祉管理體系中不可或缺的一部分。

本書的目的是向讀者介紹這種相對現代的技術,從其歷史和演變到當今最先進的研究發展以及與隱私和安全問題相關的挑戰。本書的目標讀者包括對 mHealth 及其當代應用感興趣的個人,從學生到在這個領域工作的研究人員和從業人員。

無論是在大學醫療課程中就讀的本科生還是研究生,都會發現本書是一個特別有用的伴侶,能夠發現和探索進一步豐富這個領域的新研究方向。
