DIGITALIZATION OF HEALTH - SAĞLIĞIN DİJİTALLEŞMESİ

Abstract

Developments in technology have increased the access of individuals to technological tools and applications, and have enabled individuals to perform their activities in a digital environment. Digital technologies have affected people in many ways. These technologies which affect health and health services have effects such as increasing work efficiency, improving service quality and creating a safe service environment. These technologies aim to improve human health through data management and analysis, mobile technologies, social networks, the Internet, e-mail, wearable or high-level applications and tools that can be placed on the body. These technologies and practices allow the individual's health status to be kept under constant control by providing the physician or other health care worker with real-time information about the individual's health status. These technologies which allow the individual to monitor the health status of the individual in terms of environmental, behavioral, psychological and physical, pioneer the formation of a more controllable, efficient and effective health system. The study will talk about digital health technologies and their applications, benefits, disadvantages and the current situation in our country which are being used in today's healthcare services and healthcare users and expected to be used in the coming years.

SAĞLIĞIN DİJİTALLEŞMESİ - DIGITALIZATION OF HEALTH

Abstract

Teknolojideki gelişmeler bireylerin teknolojik araçlara ve uygulamalara olan erişimini arttırma ve bireylerin dijital ortamda faaliyetlerini yerine getirmesine neden olmuştur. Dijital teknolojiler insanları birçok şekilde etkisi altına almış durumdadır. Sağlık ve sağlık hizmetlerini de etkisi altına alan bu teknolojilerin, iş verimliliğini arttırmak, hizmet kalitesini yükseltmek ve güvenli bir hizmet çevresi oluşturmak gibi etkileri bulunmaktadır. Bu teknolojiler veri yönetimi ve analizi, mobil teknolojiler, sosyal ağlar, internet, e-mail, giyilebilir veya vücuda yerleştirilebilir yüksek düzeyli uygulamaları ve araçları kullanarak insan sağlığının geliştirilmesini amaçlamaktadır. Bu teknoloji ve uygulamalar bireyin sağlık durumu hakkında doktora ya da ilgili diğer sağlık çalışanına gerçek zamanlı veriler sağlayarak bireyin sağlık durumunun sürekli kontrol altında tutulmasına imkan sağlamaktadır. Çevresel, davranışsal, psikolojik ve fiziki açıdan bireyin sağlık durumunu izlemeye imkan veren bu teknolojiler daha kontrol edilebilir, verimli ve etkili bir sağlık sisteminin oluşumuna öncülük etmektedir. Çalışmada, günümüz sağlık hizmetlerinde ve sağlık hizmetleri kullanıcıları tarafından kullanılmaya başlanan ve gelecek yıllarda kullanımının yaygınlaşması beklenen dijital sağlık teknolojileri ve uygulamalarından, faydalarından, sakıncalarından ve ülkemizdeki mevcut durumdan bahsedilecektir.
