Abstract
Serious gaming (SG) is an emerging field that has a unique role in healthcare. With big data and continuous monitoring becoming a new trend in healthcare, SG is evolving faster in the medical field due to its fit into psychology and neuroscience. The SG multi-perspective and multi-functioning framework has the potential to add new dimensions to current treatment pathways and make a significant contribution to healthcare big data. SG data will add more perspective and value to clinical data both from psychological and neurological perspectives, which are still underplayed fields. SG research directed into intensive scientific and clinical pathways is critical for the next level of evolution of health data and health systems. This chapter addresses the importance of psychological data being implemented into health data and SG's role and its future in contributing to new treatment pathways for any disease condition.
