Transforming healthcare with big data analytics: technologies, techniques and prospects.

In different studies in the field of healthcare, big data analytics technology has been shown to be effective in observing the behaviour of data, of which analysed to allow the discovery of relevant insights for strategy and decision making. The objective of this study is to present the results of a systematic review of the literature on big data analytics in healthcare, focussing in technologies, main areas and purposes of adoption. To reach its objective, the study conducts an exploratory research, through a systematic review of the literature, using the Methodi Ordinatio protocol supported by content analysis.

Machine learning applied to healthcare: a conceptual review.

The technological inference in procedures applied to healthcare is frequently investigated in order to understand the real contribution to decision-making and clinical improvement. In this context, the theoretical field of machine learning has suitably presented itself. The objective of this research is to identify the main machine learning algorithms used in healthcare through the methodology of a systematic literature review.

Big data analytics as a tool for fighting pandemics: a systematic review of literature.

Infectious and contagious diseases represent a major challenge for health systems worldwide, either in private or public sectors. More recently, with the increase in cases related to these problems, combined with the recent global pandemic of COVID-19, the need to study strategies to treat these health disturbs is even more latent. Big Data, as well as Big Data Analytics techniques, have been addressed in this context with the possibility of predicting, mapping, tracking, monitoring, and raising awareness about these epidemics and pandemics.
