Description
Summary:The role of healthcare is critical in all communities, and the development of efficient healthcare systems is a top priority for governments and health organizations on a world-wide basis. With the technological advances of the past decades transforming almost every aspect of our lives, it is unsurprising that healthcare has become the subject of rapid, technologically-driven transformations under the concept of smart health. This is an umbrella term covering a range of underlying concepts and technologies, such as wearable devices and sensors and the use of big data and cloud computing in the broader context of health services and infrastructures 1. The purpose of this study is to explore how these three main components of the smart health model, are integrated into, and affecting the smart health systems in the U.A.E. © 2020 IEEE.
