ConclusionThe checkup residents' have high requirements for the health management and differ in health management services.
ObjectiveTo explore the effect of continuous health data collection system on residents' heath management. MethodsFrom October 2012 to October 2013, 128 employees aged from 35 to 45 from a bank who volunteered to accept the health management were selected. They were to randomly divided into observation group and control group; the control group received routine outpatient management, while the health management group were observed with continuous data collection system (Zhengguangxing E Health System). We evaluate the changes in physiological indices of a healthy lifestyle one year later. ResultsOne year after administration, the poor lifestyle decreased in observation group obviously (smoking, drinking, poor diet and not take any exercise) compared with that in the control group (P<0.05). The relative health indicators including overweight, abnormal blood pressure, dyslipidemia, abnormal fasting blood-glucose, meliorated much more in observation group than that in the control group (P<0.05). ConclusionContinuous health data collection system for population health management is effective on health management.
ObjectiveTo explore the methods of data management and statistical analysis for longitudinal big data collected from mobile health management applications (APP). MethodsThe data management process and statistical analysis method were proposed by summarizing the characteristics of the data from mobile health management APPs. The methods would be clarified by a practical case: an APP recording female menstruation. ResultsThe data from health management APPs belong to longitudinal big data and the original record of the APP should be reprocessed or computed before conducting statistical analysis. A two-step data cleaning procedure was suggested for data management of the original records and reprocessed data, and longitudinal models such as mixed models was recommended for statistical analysis. ConclusionsThe data from health management APPs could be used for medical research via specific data management and statistical analysis after removing suspicious data. Cloud computing could be a viable method to improve efficiency of the big data analysis of health management APPs.
