eHealth and mHealth: Challenges and Prospects, 2nd Volume

Topic Information

Dear Colleagues,

We live in an era in which the rise of information technologies has spread to all areas of society. This evolution has gradually affected the healthcare field throughout the 21st century, although advances have mainly been focused on supervised systems where the intervention of healthcare specialists was necessary. However, the global pandemic in 2020 and part of 2021 left a large part of the population without regular face-to-face healthcare. This was a very important push against the clock for the digital transformation of medicine and represents an unprecedented situation in history that can be used by governments and health centres to further research and advancements in the field of e-Health and m-Health. The main focus of this topic is to bring together works from different branches of research, integrated in different journals of this publishing house, in order to showcase all kinds of medical advances linked to new technologies, studies and future challenges, computer-aided diagnostic systems (CADs), wearable devices or unobtrusive ambient sensors for detecting daily life patterns and/or anomalies, accident prevention systems, rehabilitation-oriented technologies, biological and physiological signal processing, and medical image processing, to name a few. The application of new technologies to the medical field to reduce the workload of healthcare staff must remain at the forefront, empowering chronic patients through self-management, helping in the diagnosis of diseases and accelerating the diagnostic process. It is envisioned that some of the described works may represent forerunners of future developments in the field of e-Health and m-Health.
