The accumulation and analysis of large-scale patient data have led to breakthrough discoveries in potential flags for diseases based on pattern recognition, highlight medication efficacy, and local population health trends that would be impossible with traditional paper-based records. However, these benefits come with unique challenges posed by the application of data sharing for research and…

Blockchain technology has proven to be the best solution for digital data storage today, which is decentralized and interconnected via cryptography. Many consensus algorithms can be options for implementation. One of them is the PoA consensus algorithm, which is proven to provide high performance and fault tolerance. Blockchain has been implemented in many sectors, including…

Bearing in mind that patient data is extremely sensitive, it is crucial to establish strong protection when the security and privacy of healthcare data are concerned. Prioritizing data security and privacy is essential for the overall healthcare industry in order to maintain the reliability of electronic healthcare (eHealth) information systems. This study explores the gathered…

Blockchain technology has been successfully applied in many fields for immutable and secure data storage. However, for applications with on-chain big data, blockchain scalability remains to be a main concern. In this paper, we propose a novel scalable storage scheme, called HistoChain, for a consortium blockchain network to manage blockchain data. We use a current…

The paper aims to describe a new technological and organizational approach in order to manage teleconsultation and telemonitoring processes involving a Physician, who remotely interacts with one or more Specialists, in order to evaluate and discuss the specific clinical conditions of a patient, based primarily on the sharing of digital clinical data, reports and diagnostic…
