Recent Developments

• Consumer devices, wearables, and apps: Wearable devices continuously monitor patients’ critical parameters. Wearables include embedded medical devices (into patients’ bodies) and other devices worn on a person’s body. These devices provide healthcare workers real-time information on patient data while they remain at home.
• Robotic surgery is a relatively new procedure for minimally invasive surgery. However, robotic-assisted surgery has become the standard treatment for prostate and is fast pervading other organs and diseases.
  3D printing technology reduces the cost of manufacturing prototypes, prosthetics, tissue & skin, and even pharmaceuticals.
• AI (Artificial Intelligence) & ML (Machine Learning): AI can manage patient admissions, scheduling, and billing. AI can analyse and decode complex data, provide exceptionally potent data for efficient & precise diagnostics. As a result, AI will probably broaden and bring down healthcare costs and let doctors and staff focus on patient care.

• Blockchain: As a database technology, Blockchain uses encryption and various other security procedures to store data, linking it to augmented security and usability. This innovation facilitates many facets of healthcare, including patient records, supply & distribution, and research.

• Remote care: Relying on the IoT’s convenience in transferring data between devices, remote care offers comfort with quality. Remote patient monitoring and telehealth are possible through video conferencing, big data, and wearable technology. As a result, physicians can monitor and diagnose patients miles away.
• Telemedicine: COVID-19 has undoubtedly accelerated the delivery of telemedicine, and experts affirm that telemedicine is here to stay. Many patients prefer it.
