Medical Big Data Risk Management: A Systematic Management Approach Based on Bayesian Belief Networks

The purpose of this paper is to identify the medical risk of applying big data technology and to build a medical big data risk (MBDR) control process and manage medical big data risk (MBDR) from a systematic perspective. In this process, we firstly used systematic literature reviews (SLRs) method to systematically search 322 papers in web of science with the topics of "medical risk"and "big data risk"to build a dimensional system of medical big data risk (MBDR) from the theoretical level. Based on a case study of a hospital in Shanghai, we explored the formation mechanism and interaction effect of medical big data risk (MBDR) by using Bayesian belief networks (BBNs) method, and built a systematic risk control process. This paper finally finds that: the dimensional system of medical big data risk (MBDR) includes 24 subdimensions and 5 major categories of dimensions, which helps to explore the medical application of big data technology from a risk perspective. In addition, the medical big data risk (MBDR) control process constructed in this paper includes: risk prediction, reverse reasoning, risk control, and risk prevention in 4 aspects, which is important for hospitals to actually carry out medical big data risk (MBDR) control. © 2023 Xiaoyi Zhang et al.
