Health Data Fidelity

Meaning

Health data fidelity is the clinical and technical measure of the accuracy, completeness, reliability, and trustworthiness of physiological, biochemical, and patient-reported information used for diagnosis and treatment. High fidelity ensures that the collected data precisely reflects the true biological state of the individual, minimizing errors that could lead to misinterpretation or suboptimal therapeutic decisions. In the era of personalized health, maintaining this fidelity is paramount for the safe and effective application of precision medicine protocols.
