Today we will talk about the top 10 future smart medical care and devices
1. Artificial Intelligence (AI) in Healthcare
Artificial intelligence is developing across many industries, among others, healthcare. With several applications, such as examining patient information and other data, and the ability to develop new medications and improve diagnostic procedures’ effectiveness, AI is one of the most important healthcare technologies.
2. Integrating Data and Predictive Analysis
Connected with AI and other technologies, data integration and predictive analysis help extract relevant insights about patients’ conditions. Thanks to AI-devices, such as robots that enable integrated data and predictive analysis, medical staff have insights into the patient’s medical record, can generate more accurate diagnosis and decide what treatment will work best for them.
3. Technology in Mental Health
According to the World Health Organisation, mental health issues are increasing worldwide. In the past ten years, there has been a 13% increase in mental health illnesses and substance use disorders, primarily due to demographic shifts (2017). In the present day, 1 in 5 people live with a disability due to mental health issues. The recent impact has been mainly due to the use of social media and the COVID-19 pandemic.
4. Remote Patient Monitoring & Virtual Care
Internet of Things (IoT) refers to the overall network of interconnected devices as well as the technology that enables inter-device and inter-cloud communication. The medical industry, often referred to as the Internet of Medical Things, includes cutting-edge medical technology like wearable sensors, 5G-enabled devices, and remote patient monitoring. Some of such devices can be purchased from Moxa, have a look here.
5. Digital Therapeutics
Digital therapeutics, mentioned above, are solutions for patients with chronic illnesses who need ongoing care. The care can cover symptom monitoring, medication alterations, and behavioural modifications. Such digital therapeutics can be prescribed to a patient by their doctor, giving them access via computer or app on their smartphone.
6. Wearables in Healthcare
Just mentioned within IoT innovation – wearables or wearable technology is a group of electronic devices that can be worn as an accessory, implanted in the user’s body, incorporated in clothing or even tattooed on the skin. But we will not talk about wearables as a gadget but as important innovation in the healthcare industry. For example, smartwatches allow to remotely check on a patient’s condition by providing information about heart rate, blood oxygen saturation and blood vitals. Wearables such as pedometers and various sensors can also measure patient’s physical health.
7. Organ Care Technology & Bioprinting
3D printing, which we wrote about in the article Learn about Industrial Applications of 3D Printing, is the technology behind bioprinting. 3D printing has its application in the healthcare industry through producing such things as external prostheses, cranial or orthopaedic implants, and personalised airway stents. However, it has also demonstrated value in surgical planning and has been applied to challenging open-heart procedures, even the entire face transplant performed at Cleveland Clinic.
8. Cancer Immunotherapy
We already mentioned cancer within this article but did not refer to immunotherapy (also called immuno-oncology), which is a type of cancer treatment, has also advanced and can now prolong a patient’s life considerably. Immunotherapy is based on the idea that cancer can be treated by genetically modifying a patient’s cells, so they cooperate with their immune system. It boosts the immune system’s activity to aid in cancer removal. Immunotherapy does not cause collateral damage to healthy cells as chemotherapy does. 9. Augmented & Virtual Reality in Healthcare
There are several uses for augmented and virtual reality (AR and VR) in healthcare. These technologies allow for connecting the digital and physical environments in a multidimensional way. The development of augmented reality is mainly reliant on artificial intelligence. As already mentioned, cancer can be detected through image recognition. VR can be used in physical therapy in areas like mental trauma, where it can cure phobias.
10. Sustainability and decarbonisation
As the world strives toward a more sustainable future, healthcare is also trying to contribute to a better environment, for instance, by providing ecolabelling. Ecolabeling worldwide is a voluntary technique of environmental performance certification and labelling. Within a certain category, an ecolabel highlights goods or services that have been shown to be more environmentally friendly.
