The recent COVID-19 global pandemic exemplifies the need for
efficient, reliable, and real-time tools and technology for
forecasting and predicting healthcare disasters as well as for
helping to restrict subsequent spread and fatality of deadly
diseases. This new book discusses many of the innovative and
state-of-the-art tools and technology that can help meet the
challenges of predicting such disasters. The chapters offer a
plethora of useful information for designing healthcare disaster
management systems that can be dynamically configurable with
implementation of today’s modern technology, such as cloud
computing, artificial intelligence, IoT, data analytics, and
machine learning. These can increase effectiveness in remote
sensing technologies, data analytics, data storage, communication
networks, geographic information system (GIS), and global
positioning System (GPS), to name a few. The book discusses
mathematical models using graph-based approaches for analyzing
dynamic, heterogeneous, and unstructured data for applications in
epidemiology. The authors also address the use of mobile
applications for communication efforts and remote monitoring for
gauging health and the effectiveness of preventive healthcare
measures. The chapters discuss influencing factors that directly or
indirectly target public health infrastructure that can lead to or
exacerbate global health crises, such as extreme climate changes,
refugee health crises, terrorism and cyberterrorism, and
technology-related incidents. The book further looks at efficient
methods to analyze disasters and how to deliver healthcare in areas
of conflict and crisis. This important volume, Global Healthcare
Disasters: Predicting the Unpredictable with Emerging Technologies,
provides a bounty of useful information for health professionals,
academicians, researchers, governmental agencies, and policymakers
across the world to predict, mitigate, and manage global health
disaster with emerging technologies.
