Abstract

Summary: Blockchain technology has attracted substantial interest in recent years, most notably for its effect on global economics through the advent of cryptocurrency. Within the health care domain, blockchain technology has been actively explored as a tool for improving personal health data management, medical device security, and clinical trial management. Despite a strong demand for innovation and cutting-edge technology in plastic surgery, integration of blockchain technologies within plastic surgery is in its infancy. Recent advances and mainstream adoption of blockchain are gaining momentum and have shown significant promise for improving patient care and information management. In this article, the authors explain what defines a blockchain and discuss its history and potential applications in plastic surgery. Existing evidence suggests that blockchain can enable patient-centered data management, improve privacy, and provide additional safeguards against human error. Integration of blockchain technology into clinical practice requires further research and development to demonstrate its safety and efficacy for patients and providers.
