Key result
BigData@Heart leverages big data to improve cardiovascular disease management and healthcare processing across Europe.
Why the study?
The fragmentation of healthcare data and lack of uniform access and analysis hinder progress in innovative cardiovascular disease management in Europe.
The BigData@Heart project aims to utilize big data to improve cardiovascular disease management and healthcare efficiency in Europe.
The BigData@Heart project will unlock the benefits of big data, to place European citizens at the centre of heart health The sustainability and quality of health care provision in Europe is being challenged. Demographic change and rapid innovation are leading to inconsistent medical care across Europe. Despite remarkable progress in the management of cardiovascular diseases, the fragmentation of healthcare data is a missed opportunity to maximize this innovation equitably. The lack of high-resolution and computable definitions and our inability to uniformly access and analyse existing data hinders progress in ensuring a leading role for Europe in innovative cardiovascular disease management. Over the past few years, big data approaches have helped improve efficiency in healthcare information processing in several non-cardiological domains. Big data insights have created value by using analyses from large clinical datasets to expedite the development of new drugs and optimize clinical management approaches. This knowledge can be transmitted to the cardiovascular domain.
