Big Data is continuing to transform human life, and its impact on healthcare has been nothing short of revolutionary. Although big data in healthcare is experiencing a massive boom, some areas of medicine are benefiting from it the most. Healthcare providers are exploring the potential of Big Data playing a bigger role in the treatment of Traumatic Brain Injuries (TBI).
It’s estimated that 2.8 million people in the United States sustain TBI annually. Out of this total, 50,000 die as a result, and 282,000 are hospitalized; hospitals are seeking new ways to fight this problem.
