| Abstract | "Consumer Healthcare Informatics educates readers in the core concepts of consumer health informatics: participatory healthcare; health and e-health literacy; user-centered design; information retrieval and trusted information resources; and the ethical dimensions of health information and communication technologies. It presents the current state of knowledge and recent developments in the field of consumer health informatics. The discussions address tailoring information to key user groups including patients, consumers, caregivers, parents, children and young adults, and older adults. For example, apps are considered not just as a rich consumer technology, with promise of empowered personal data management and connectedness to community and healthcare providers, but also a domain rife with concerns for effectiveness, privacy and security, requiring both designer and user to engage in critical thinking around their choices"-- Provided by publisher. |
