Innovative Collaboration in Healthcare

This book is the first to approach collaboration in healthcare from a translational systems science perspective. There is a complex intertwining of collaborative relationships between diverse sectors, industries, universities, professions, teams, patients, and machines and robots powered by artificial intelligence and big data. Innovative collaboration is evolving both in the real world and in the virtual space of the Internet. While respecting patient-centeredness, collaboration is required in various settings and under different contexts such as hospitals, communities, use of new technology development, integrating industry academia-hospital-government relationships, through interprofessional approaches. However, it is only recently that collaboration in health professions has begun to be researched and discussed scientifically.

The purpose of this book is to review and recapture innovative collaboration in modern healthcare, primarily from the perspective of translational systems science. To attain our goal, the authors have prepared three unique perspectives. The first is interprofessional collaboration. The elegance, sturdiness, and resilience of the tapestry depend heavily on cooperation between professions and the multisector. The second angle is patient-centeredness. In recent years, patient-centeredness has become an established motto, but to what extent is patient-centeredness, including ethics, realized in collaboration? We would like to introduce advanced approach. The third perspective is man-machine collaboration. Collaboration with robots and sensor systems connected to artificial intelligence and big data is becoming more common in all aspects of healthcare. While introducing advanced cases, the authors would like to critically analyze the ethics and conflicts that tend to hide behind the scenes.

Covers a wide range of health disciplines involved in the latest advances of collaboration in diverse health services Contains the expertise of a wide range of health professionals on pioneering advances in humanmachine collaboration Provides an overview of the characteristics of human-to-human and human-to-machine collaboration
