Healthcare Data Visualization
The graphical representation of complex health-related information, has its reason to be in providing actionable insights to clinicians, researchers, administrators, policymakers, and patients. By transforming raw and heterogeneous datasets, such as Electronic Health Records (EHRs), claims databases, or public health surveillance data, into intuitive charts, graphs, maps, dashboards, and interactive tools, healthcare data visualization can facilitate evidence-based decision-making, improve care coordination, and ultimately enhance patient outcomes. It stands as a critical component of Health Data Science, where advanced analytics, statistical modeling, machine learning, and domain expertise converge to accelerate learning health systems (Friedman et al., 2010 [1]; McGinnis et al., 2013 [2]). Borrowing from the work by David McCandless (Information is beautiful, 2010 [3]) and Hans Rosling et al (Factfulness, 2018 [4]), although not healthcare specific, Information can be derived from data in many ways, but from them we can clearly deduce that revealing hidden insights from data, focusing on connecting a narrative to validated facts and then demonstrating that connection with visual elegance can often illuminate, otherwise indiscernable, datasets. Healthcare Data Visualization can be trully enhanced from the field of data communication:
- a) a contextualized, fact-based presentations of global trends can debunk misconceptions and foster a more balanced understanding of the world (Hans Rosling, 2018 [3]);
- b) also, we must no forget the power of aesthetically engaging and conceptually clear data visualizations, in order to capture attention to specific data points, and make complex concepts accessible (David McCandless, 2010 [4])
- c) keep in mind the unofficial universal principles:
- Clarity,
- Context,
- Storytelling,
- Design appeal
Importance and Applications in Healthcare
In the rapidly evolving healthcare landscape, data visualization has enabled stakeholders to discern trends, detect patterns, and find anomalies that could, otherwise, remain hidden in large, complex datasets (Dunskiy, 2023 [5]; Kodjin, 2023 [6]). Public health officials can identify time series and clusters of disease outbreaks, while hospital administrators can track patient flow, bed occupancy, and resource utilization at a glance (Chornyy, 2024 [7]; Rind et al., 2013 [8]; West et al., 2015 [9]). Clinicians benefit from patient-level visual analytics, such as longitudinal line charts tracking vital signs, biomedical results or risk scores, providing immediate contextual insights for improved diagnosis and treatment (Evans, 2024 [10]). By balancing evidence-based rigor and an engaging visual design, healthcare data visualization can better inform at diferent levels: from the patient level, to population health management, to highlight social determinants of health, and even promote data-driven policies (Friedman et al., 2010 [1]; McGinnis et al., 2013 [2]).
Best Practices
Effective healthcare data visualization and sharing requires a certain fusion of rigorous methodology, thoughtful design, adherence to user needs, and also a bit of creativity allied to some degree of Art. Nevertheless there are some best practices (possibly derived from the unofficial universal principles we stated before) which we have to pay a bit of attention:
- Clinical Context is Key: Tailor visuals to user needs. A physician may require a dashboard focused on medication adherence and vital signs, while a public health analyst might prefer geographic and temporal trends (Dunskiy, 2023 [5]; Rind et al., 2013 [8]).
- Simplicity and Clarity: Avoid overcomplication! Less is more! Foundational works like Cleveland’s The Elements of Graphing Data (1985) [11] and Tufte’s The Visual Display of Quantitative Information (2001)[12] underscore minimalism and clarity, while Rosling’s Factfulness[4] shows how grounding data in reality (facts) and avoiding sensationalism leads to more meaningful insights.
- Color and Accessibility: Choose accessible color palettes and ensure legends, labels, and contrasts are clear (Chornyy, 2024 [7]; Ware, 2020 [13]). McCandless’s visuals in Information is Beautiful[3] underscore how carefully selected colors and aesthetics enhance user engagement and comprehension. Also keep in mind that some audience might not “view” things like you (i.e. daltonism ↔ color codes for daltonism, blindness ↔ braille)
- Data Integrity and Validation: Rely only on validated data to build trust. Misrepresentations lead to misleading conclusions and can erode confidence (Abudiyab & Alanazi, 2022 [14]). Whenever data transformation is made to better understant the information to be captured, that should always be documented and pertinent
- Compliance with Regulations and Privacy: Follow proper guidelines and de-identify patient data (i.e. GDPR in Europe). Respecting privacy and building trust are fundamental (Evans, 2024 [10]; West et al., 2015 [9]).
Common Hints and Tips
- Iterative Prototyping and User-Centered Design: If the end user is not you (i.e. a Dashboard or graphical representation that is to be presented by someone else) remember to engage end-users from the start. Iteration and refinement are key to ensuring that the final visualization meets the predefined goals, be them clinical or operational (Shneiderman & Plaisant, 2010 [15]).
- Interactive Elements: Incorporate tooltips, filters, and drill-down functionalities (especially in dashboards). Interactivity, as seen in many successful data storytelling examples from McCandless and in other demonstrations at AMIA and IEEE VIS conferences, encourages deeper exploration (Rind et al., 2013 [8]).
- Storytelling Approach: Present data as a compelling narrative! Weaving data into visually compelling narratives might not be an easy task, and specially healthcare data (usually highly dimensional), which should also tell a cohesive story. By structuring visualizations to move from overview to detail (top-down), and adding explanatory annotations, Health Data Scientists can engage audiences more effectively (Few, 2012 [16]; Few, 2013 [17]; Few, 2013 [18]).
- Proper Scaling and Context: Normalize data (if needed) and highlight reference ranges or care quality benchmarks. Contextualizing information, ensures viewers understand both the broader landscape and the finer details (Kodjin, 2023 [6]).
Common Visualization Types and Their Healthcare Use Cases
Whether using line charts to illustrate changes in patient vitals or Sankey diagrams to depict patient flow, the goal is to combine factual accuracy with clear, engaging design. The following table may lack in exaustiveness, but sill has very good examples:
Chart Type | Healthcare Use Cases | Best Practices | References |
---|---|---|---|
Line Chart | Monitoring patient vitals, seasonal disease trends | Keep it simple, highlight key events, clarify axes | Python & R Graph Galleries [19] [20], Cleveland (1985)[11], Tufte (2001)[12] |
Bar Chart | Comparing adherence rates, resource allocation | Sort bars meaningfully, use consistent scales | Python & R Graph Galleries [19] [20], Few (2012)[16] |
Histogram | Distributions of age, lab values | Appropriate bin width, highlight clinical thresholds | Python & R Graph Galleries [19] [20], Tufte (2001)[12] |
Box/Violin Plot | Distribution of blood pressure or satisfaction scores | Emphasize medians, quartiles, outliers | Python & R Graph Galleries [19] [20], Wilkinson (2005)[21] |
Scatter Plot | BMI vs. blood pressure correlations | Add trend lines, consider transparency for large datasets | Python & R Graph Galleries [19] [20], Ware (2021)[13] |
Heatmap | Correlation matrices, ICU occupancy patterns, antibiotics resistance surveillance | Balanced color maps, clear legend | Python & R Graph Galleries [19] [20] |
Choropleth/Maps | Disease prevalence by region, resource distribution | Color gradients, scale bars, contextual overlays | Python & R Graph Galleries [19] [20], Dicker et al. (2006)[22] |
Network Graph | Referral patterns, epidemiological links | Cluster for clarity, highlight key nodes | Python & R Graph Galleries [19] [20], Rind et al. (2013)[8] |
Sankey Diagram | Patient flow through care pathways | Limit complexity, consistent color coding | Python & R Graph Galleries [19] [20], West et al. (2015)[9] |
Radar/Spider Chart | Comparing performance metrics | Limit variables, normalize scales, consider alternatives | Python & R Graph Galleries [19] [20], Few (2012)[16] |
Common Pitfalls in Health Data Visualization (and How to Avoid Them)
- Overcomplication: Stick to clear, familiar visuals.
- Data Misinterpretation: Include proper labeling, annotations, and definitions (Anello, 2023 [23]; Dicker et al. (2006)[22]).
- Ignoring User Feedback (when dashboarding): Engage users early, iterating design, ensuring even complex clinical concepts remain understandable.
- Privacy Violations: Always anonymize patient data or simply use aggregations of data (avoid focusing on single cases).
Platforms, and Tools
There is a plethora of tools to be used in Data Visualization and the following are just the most used.
Open Source Solutions
- Python (Matplotlib, Seaborn, Plotly, Bokeh): Flexible, widely used, good community support[24].
- R (ggplot2, Shiny): The grammar-of-graphics approach (Wilkinson, 2005 [21]) and interactive dashboarding with Shiny.
- D3.js: Maximum customization and interactivity, well-aligned with the creative ethos demonstrated in McCandless’s work[3].
Commercial and Enterprise Platforms
- Tableau, Power BI, QlikView/Qlik Sense, Sisense, Looker: Offer varying degrees of user-friendliness and scalability (Dunskiy, 2023 [5]; Evans, 2024[10]).
Workflows and Frameworks
Because Data Visualization does not “sprout” espontaneously from anywhere, there are workflows and frameworks that are associated in a way or the other:
- Extract Transform and Load (ETL) Pipelines: Ensures data cleanliness and correct structure before visualization (Friedman et al., 2010 [1]).
- Machine Learning Integration: Displaying of model outputs visually for clinical validation (Rind et al., 2013[8])
- Self-Service BI: Empower non-technical stakeholders to create or adjust visualizations. This approach is mainly commercial
