Personal health systems research--charting the European landscape.
Personal Health Systems (PHS) open new ways of providing continuous, quality controlled and personalized health services to empowered individuals and require the emergence of novel cross-disciplinary innovation partnerships. We analyzed the European PHS research and innovation landscape with the ultimate goal of a better understanding of mismatches between the potential of, and need for, PHS. The results of network analysis indicate a dynamic but fragmented PHS innovation landscape in Europe. In addition to excellent technological solutions, PHS implementation also needs a multi-stakeholder process of service system innovation to reach ambitious aims in the future.
