數碼健康(英文:Digital Health,或稱數碼健康)是一門學科,包括數碼護理專案,技術與健康、醫療衛生、生活和社會,這門學科的目的是提高醫療服務的效率,使醫學更加個性化和精確。[1][2][3][4]這門學科引入資訊化和通訊技術手段來促進醫學發展。

自1990年以來,全世界開始越來越多地使用電子醫療記錄。[5] 數碼健康是一個多學科領域,涉及許多從業者,例如臨床醫生、研究人員和科學家,他們在醫療保健、工程、社會科學、公共衛生、健康經濟學和數據管理方面具有不少專業知識。[6]

數碼醫療技術包括電腦硬件軟件解決方案和服務,包括遠距醫療可穿戴技術、擴張實境和虛擬實境。[7][8] 一般來說,數碼健康將衛生系統互聯起來,並促進計算技術、智能裝置英語smart device、計算分析技術的使用,幫助醫事人員及病人更好地管控疾病和健康風險。[4][8]

雖然數碼醫療平台有不少優點,但批評者警告說,個人健康數據方面的私隱可能受到侵犯,因此對自己私隱在意之人對數碼醫療系統可能會不信任和有所猶豫。[9][10]
