Item A meta-analysis of industry 4.0 design principles applied in the health sector(Eng. Appl. Artif. Intell., 2021) Amrita Sisodia; Rajni JindalThe approach of health 4.0 is driven out from the well-known industry 4.0. The goal of industry 4.0 is to bring a revolution in the manufacturing sector by digitization. The future of health management will become timelier and more personalized as new technologies will empower individuals to conduct their health monitoring by using cyber-physical systems. The design principles of industry 4.0 connect the physical and virtual world in real-time. Virtualization in health happens after the emergence of Information and Communication Technologies (ICT). For this 5G, the next-generation mobile network provides ambient intelligence for orchestration of medical services so that government and private companies can reconsider health prospects. These technological developments in healthcare, big data and industry 4.0 are individually attracting the huge attention of academics and industries. However, a detailed study of big data and industry 4.0 together concerning healthcare is still not present in the existing literature. The main contribution of this article is to present a meta-analytic approach to interpret, integrate and critically investigate the findings of original articles. This study expounds a novel approach for achieving effectual and comparable results related to the explained research problems. The results summarize about the standards used in main research directions, and existing deficiencies present in this area. The findings of this systematic literature review (SLR) can be helpful as future guidelines to researchers and practitioners working in the area of health 4.0 and related topics.Item Access to Affordable Health: A Care Delivery Model of GNRC Hospitals in North-Eastern India(Int. J. Integr. Care, 2024) Nomal Chandra Borah; Priyanka Borah; Satabdee Borah; Madhurjya Borah; Purabi SarkarIntroduction: The healthcare delivery system of Assam faces several challenges to provide affordable, accessible and quality care services. GNRC (Guwahati Neurological Research Center) is the first super-speciality hospital to address many of these gaps by delivering integrated affordable healthcare services to the populations of Assam and other parts of North-eastern India. Description & Discussion: This paper describes the implementation of a care delivery model which provides integrated care delivery services through linking hospitals to primary healthcare services, including preventive, promotive, and curative care, along with delivering easily accessible and affordable care to the people of Assam and other parts of North-eastern India. Conclusion: The proposed model is the first innovative approach from Northeastern India, Assam, to deliver affordable, accessible and patient-centric hospital led community-based preventive, promotive, and primary, secondary, and tertiary hospital-based care. It is anticipated that GNRC's Affordable Health Mission will help redesign and integrate the way primary, secondary and tertiary healthcare is delivered to the population of Assam in helping patients manage their own health and reduce the numbers that needs to be admitted to secondary care and tertiary care by improving patients' independence and well-being as well as dramatically reducing the cost to the overall health system.
