Power BI Health Data Analysis

This project presents a comprehensive Power BI report for analyzing health-related datasets, focusing on environmental impacts on mental and physical well-being. The report is developed using Microsoft Power BI and covers multiple dimensions of urban health, including air pollution, noise, stress levels, sleep quality, and healthcare records.

📊 Project Overview

The analysis is based on two primary datasets:

  1. Air Pollution and Mental Health
    Provided by the CitieS-Health project and collected in Barcelona, Spain. It investigates how air pollution and environmental factors (e.g., NO₂ levels, noise, green space exposure) influence mental health and well-being. It includes self-reported data such as stress levels, sleep quality, and cognitive test results (e.g., Stroop test).

  2. Healthcare Dataset
    A hospital dataset covering U.S. patients from 2019 to 2024. It includes information about medical conditions, hospital admissions, billing, treatments, and outcomes, enabling trend and cost-effectiveness analyses over time.

🛠️ Tools Used

  • Microsoft Power BI: For data import, cleaning, modeling, and dashboard/report creation.
  • Power Query Editor: For data transformation.
  • GeoJSON + Shape Map: For district-level geospatial filtering in Barcelona.

🧹 Data Preparation

  • Null value treatment (removal, replacement with mean, etc.)
  • Data type conversions
  • Redundant or erroneous data elimination
  • Feature engineering (new calculated columns such as well-being level, sleep quality groupings, etc.)

🔍 Key Analyses

Air Pollution and Mental Health Dataset

  • Correlation between NO₂ levels and well-being, stress, and cognitive performance
  • Impact of noise on perceived stress
  • Sleep quality versus air quality
  • Effect of education level on perceived well-being
  • Outdoor activity time vs. exposure to pollution
  • Seasonal trends in pollution and temperature
  • Gender-based exposure comparisons
  • District-specific dashboards (via interactive maps)

Healthcare Dataset

  • Patient age vs. recovery time and medical condition
  • Admission type analysis
  • Clustering of patient profiles
  • Blood type distribution and health outcomes

📁 Data Sources

📍 Geographic Scope

  • Barcelona, Spain (Air pollution dataset)
  • United States (Healthcare dataset)

📌 Notable Features

  • Interactive filtering by district, gender, or survey date
  • Use of geospatial mapping for targeted insights
  • Temporal trend analysis for both health and environmental variables
  • Dynamic dashboards with slicers and KPIs
