Computer technology is used to improve
healthcare delivery and accessibility
patient care and safety
the relationship between healthcare
providers and patients
Disease and outbreak control
Healthcare is the organized provision of medical care to individuals and communities
Healthcare software/applications
AI in healthcare
to mine and manage medical data
to predict and diagnose diseases
to develop new medicine/drugs
for better management of patient flow in
healthcare facilities
to assist in surgeries
to detect or predict outbreaks of
infectious diseases
AI is used to mine and manage the data of this size, in a short time, to produce valuable information
Healthcare dashboards
It enables healthcare professionals to access important information in real -time
Example of dashboards
Hospital KPI dashboard
Patient satisfaction dashboard
Hospital performance dashboard
Infectious disease dashboard
Disease modelling & outbreak prediction
Using computer technology and data to predict when and where disease outbreaks might occur

Healthcare personnel use mobile devices and mobile apps
Allows practitioners to complete task in location or away from the computer
M-health usage benefits:
help people stick to their medication regimen by tracking pills they have and have not taken

Health informatics
Medical imaging technologies
Computer-assisted surgeries
Telehealth & telemedicine
Enriching medical education
Other applications of IT in
healthcare
Issues and Challenges
