Big data in global health: improving health in low- and middle-income countries

In the worst case, big data will become expensive attention caused by high-income countries, focusing on illness-specific outcome and difficult for those who need the most data access. Assimilation of heterogeneous data that can not easily be shared or compared can harm the relatively vulnerable global health community. Infringement of data security can threaten personal safety and lead to discrimination, genocide, and other violent acts. The world's health society can monitor large amounts of money spent on big data and rarely shows investment

Insufficient data governance - Private companies own databases that leak frequently and citizens can not pursue them.

The disapproval of consent by an unsuitably designed consent system may threaten personal safety.

On the contrary, the era of big data can be an important and useful turning point for improving global health. Mid- and low-income country policy makers can develop "demand side" platforms to determine the information they need most. Partnerships with academia, industry, governments, international organizations, and non-profit sectors help develop innovative solutions. This ideal approach is optimistic, but as ambitious as achieving the Millennium Development Goals, eradication of polio and suppression of malaria. Developing a "best case" model for deploying big data will help you achieve all these goals.

A powerful governance process designed to respect values ​​and principles in the use of data and to emphasize minimizing risks.

The law provides for the real-time sharing and aggregation of anonymous data while establishing appropriate safeguards.

Data provided in a form available to patients, health care providers, entrepreneurs, policy makers

Compared with low-income countries, the health condition of most middle-income countries has improved, and the burden of disease has been significantly reduced. Health systems are more developed and per capita health expenditure is sufficient to ensure the universal coverage of basic interventions. Sweden will support the reform process to develop strategies to respond to the transition to a rapid epidemic. The role of development partners is to provide technical and policy support mainly to guide health system efforts to meet the needs of the poor.

A well-functioning health system will help improve health and improve health and impartiality. In order to improve the performance of the medical system in many middle-low income countries, sustainable support and joint efforts by several entities including international organizations, governments, civil society organizations, academic circles are necessary. Chile has recently begun to readjust its public health plan to reduce health disparities. In 2008, for the six major public health programs of child health, reproductive health, cardiovascular health, oral health, worker's health and red tide (algae breeding), fairness using the Tanahashi-based framework Evaluation started. The purpose of these evaluations is to provide guidelines for changing the direction of each program to identify prevention, case detection, various barriers and drivers of success in treatment and to increase fairness of access to medical care .

Differences by country reflect part of medical expenses. More than half of patients in low and middle income countries needing radiation therapy can not receive treatment. But big budget does not guarantee good results. Medical treatment in Iceland and Portugal has not exceeded GDP in the UK and Denmark, but past studies have shown that the survival rate of all cancers is very different. Instead, the problem is a way to spend money and it will not cost you. As an example, there is a vaccine against human papilloma virus (HPV) which causes cervical cancer in women and cancer in head and neck. In 2011, Rwanda launched a regular vaccination program to eradicate cervical cancer by 2020. Other countries are not systematic. Immunization of 120 thousand Indian women every year will help prevent cervical cancer
