I need some help with this question. What are the basic uses and common issues of health care data for small data?

Answer 1

Basic uses of small data in health care

It is easily accessible and informative

small data provides minute informations as well as specific problem about a patient. For example biometric measurment of a client, a client's allergic reaction and so on.

They are directly related to patient care.

Problems include

Small data will not give a detailed explanation of a client's history.In health problems like cancer, genetic disorder,mental illness physicians need a detailed note ie big data to find out the root cause of the disease. Also to understand and support client's with chronic illness along with small data big data is also needed.
