The challenges of individuality to technology approaches to personally collected health data

Published: 23 May 2017 Publication History

Abstract

While patients' increasing willingness to collect personal health data portends improvements in the individualization of health care, helping health care providers to effectively act upon these personal data collections poses its own challenges. In this paper, we discuss the challenges we have noticed as we work towards the creation of tools to help chronic patients present their data to their clinicians.
