Technology plays a significant role in modern epidemiology: 1. Electronic Health Records (EHRs): These provide a comprehensive view of a patient’s medical history, aiding in accurate monitoring. 2. Big Data Analytics: Advanced analytics can handle large datasets, uncovering patterns that might not be visible through traditional methods. 3. Mobile Health (mHealth): Mobile applications and wearable devices can collect real-time data on disease progression. 4. Telemedicine: Virtual consultations can facilitate continuous monitoring, especially in remote areas.
