区块链联合使用以患者为中心的方法整合分布式健康数据
Blockchains' federation for integrating distributed health data using a patient-centered approach
摘要:
当今世界是一个全球化和互联的世界,人们越来越多地四处走动,并与越来越多的各种服务和设备互动,包括那些允许他们监测自己健康的服务和设备。然而,每个公司,机构或卫生系统通常以隔离的方式存储其患者的数据。虽然这种方法可以具有与隐私、安全等相关的一些益处,这也意味着它们中的每一个都对病人的健康数据产生不同,不完整和可能相互矛盾的看法,失去了这些信息可能给病人带来的部分价值。这就是为什么来自世界各地的研究人员决心用新的以患者为中心的卫生系统取代目前以机构为中心的卫生系统的原因。在这些新系统中,患者的所有健康信息都被整合到一个独特的全球视野中。然而,有些问题仍然没有答案。具体而言,谁应该存储和维护给定患者的信息,以及如何将这些信息提供给其他系统。为了解决这种情况,这项工作提出了一种新的解决方案,使患者的个人健康轨迹可用于患者本身和卫生机构。通过使用区块链联盟和网络服务的概念,可以将对个人健康的全球视野授予现有和新的解决方案。为了证明该建议的可行性,提供了一个实施方案,以及在一个潜在的情况下获得的结果。
英文摘要:
Today's world is a globalized and connected one, where people are increasingly moving around and interacting with a greater number of services and devices of all kinds, including those that allow them to monitor their health. However, each company, institution or health system usually store its patients' data in an isolated way. Although this approach can have some benefits related with privacy, security, etc., it also implies that each one of them generates different, incomplete and possibly contradictory views of a patient's health data, losing part of the value that this information could bring to the patient. That is the reason why researchers from all over the world are determined to replace the current institution-centered health systems with new patient-centered ones. In these new systems, all the health information of a patient is integrated into a unique global vision. However, some questions are still unanswered. Specifically, who should store and maintain the information of a given patient and how should this information be made available for other systems. To address this situation, this work proposes a new solution towards making the Personal Health Trajectory of patients available for both, the patients themselves and health institutions. By using the concept of blockchains' federation and web services access to the global vision of a person health can be granted to existing and new solutions. To demonstrate the viability of the proposal, an implementation is provided alongside the obtained results in a potential scenario.
