Life-saving medical and scientific research-based interventions are extending people's lives and saving the lives of people who have suffered from diseases and injuries. This has led to an increased need for the development of technical and medical devices for the prevention, rehabilitation, and treatment of injuries. With the development of computer technology, more and more virtual models of the human body have been developed for biomedical and biomechanical research and application. Reliable virtual body models can efficiently improve injury prediction and rehabilitation, as well as disease diagnosis and treatment. For the past decade, biomechanical virtual human body models have experienced major advancements in terms of development methods, model biofidelity, availability, and applications.

With the increase in the development of the advanced cellular communication system, it is assumed that several sectors, such as the health industry, education, transport industry, business model, and so on, will rapidly grow. However, the requirements of the above-mentioned sectors are different and difficult to fulfill. Hence, 5G will be integral to several networks and will also need a unique management system for its successful rollout around the globe. 5G-Based Smart Hospitals and Healthcare Systems: Evaluation, Integration, and Deployment provides an overview of the role of advanced technologies in transforming the healthcare industry. It emphasizes the technical requirements of smart hospitals and the technologies associated with them along with explaining how technologies such as IoT, machine learning, and AI can be integrated with smart hospitals and 5G networks. The book evaluates several concerns such as privacy of data, infrastructure costs, and regular upgradability of technologies. Since the storage of information is a major concern with the implantation of 5G-based hospitals, this book will specifically address those issues along with examining the potential pitfalls of 5G-based hospitals and the factors that cause their failures. This book specifically targets professionals, academicians, engineers, researchers, management firms, technical institutes, R&D establishments, and individuals researching in the fields of 5G, healthcare, medical sensors, IoT, big data, and related fields. The main objectives of this book are to accumulate state-of-the-art IoT, 5G, AI, and machine learning-based approaches for resolving healthcare problems.

Injuries are the leading cause of death and disability among people under age 35 in the United States. Despite great strides in injury prevention over the decades, injuries result in 150,000 deaths, 2.6 million hospitalizations, and 36 million visits to the emergency room each year. Reducing the Burden of Injury describes the cost and magnitude of the injury problem in America and looks critically at the current response by the public and private sectors, including: Data and surveillance needs. Research priorities. Trauma care systems development. Infrastructure support, including training for injury professionals. Firearm safety. Coordination among federal agencies. The authors define the field of injury and establish boundaries for the field regarding intentional injuries. This book highlights the crosscutting nature of the injury field, identifies opportunities to leverage resources and expertise of the numerous parties involved, and discusses issues regarding leadership at the federal level.
