We also see it in COVID-19, where thanks to the data captured and shared globally we have been able to quickly determine how it acts, what the main symptoms are, the incidence rate, and so on.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This information that we are collecting about different diseases comes from multiple sources like <strong>E<\/strong><\/span><b>lectronic Health Records (EHR), departmental databases, clinical research management tools, remote monitoring devices\u2026<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> All those high-value platforms offer great potential for data analysis that provides <\/span><b>quicker and more precise diagnoses<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, improves <\/span><b>clinical decision-making,<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> generates<\/span><b> treatments that are more adapted to each patient,<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and ultimately improves the <\/span><b>management of the healthcare process<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, and thus the <\/span><b>patients\u2019 health and quality of life.<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Because of that, taking into account the fact that these data come from such a variety of sources, it is ever more important to be able to rely upon appropriate processes and technologies to collect and organize clinical information that is already being captured in hospitals.<\/span> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This was addressed in the article, <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pmc\/articles\/PMC6372467\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cManaging Unstructured Big Data in Healthcare System<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201d.
