How technology is changing healthcare?

Athira Sethu

Kochi, 26 October 2024

Technology is playing a paramount role in the transformation of healthcare. It is turning medical care into more effective, affordable, and accessible. There are several major ways by which technology is transforming health.

  1. Improving Patient Monitoring
    Wearable Devices: Smartwatches and fitness trackers can track important vital signs, including heart rate and sleep patterns. For example, the Apple Watch notifies its users of irregular heartbeats so that they can visit a doctor where necessary. Continuous monitoring in this regard helps people to identify serious health problems early enough, especially for those suffering from chronic conditions.
  2. Revolutionizing Communication
    Telemedicine: Telemedicine helps patients communicate with doctors by video call or text. It is also helpful for patients who are far away from the health care centers because one can quickly diagnose and make follow-ups without the hassle of traveling long distances.

Patient Portals: Many healthcare providers enable patients to access online portals where they can view their medical records, schedule appointments, and interact with their physicians. This accesses their health information easily.

  1. Enhancing Data Management
    Electronic Medical Records (EMRs): These digital records replace paper files. The medical history, medications, and results of tests of a patient are kept in one location. EMRs make information sharing and collaboration for the care of patients much easier for doctors.

Data Sharing: New technologies enable health providers to share critical information quickly, especially in emergencies. For example, a medical team can instantly have access to a patient’s previous health data once that patient arrives at the hospital. This would help doctors or other health providers diagnose the patient faster and act appropriately.

  1. Facilitating Remote Care
    Remote Monitoring: Devices can be utilized to monitor patients’ health conditions at home. For example, diabetic patients can use devices to trace their blood sugar levels directly to healthcare providers. This enables doctors to better manage treatments and decreases the need for frequent office visits.
  2. Using Artificial Intelligence (AI)
    Diagnosis and Treatment: AI can quickly review large amounts of medical data in order to help doctors make more informed choices. For example, AI can analyze medical images like X-rays and MRIs faster than the human eye to find tumors or other fractures.

Predictive Analytics: AI can also predict health risks by analyzing patterns in a patient’s health data. This helps in preventive care, allowing doctors to intervene before serious issues develop.

  1. Personalizing Patient Care
    Customized Treatments: Technology allows the personalization of treatments by health providers to fit the specific patient. For example, using genetic testing, doctors are in a position to prescribe medicine for the patient depending on the genetic makeup of the individual.
  2. Creating Smart Hospitals
    Internet of Medical Things (IoMT): Hospitals use connected devices, which collect and share information about patients in real time. It increases the quality of care because it allows the doctor to have access to vital information that may be required for quick decisions.

Automated Systems: Smart systems can streamline hospital operations, from managing inventory to scheduling staff. This improves efficiency and ensures that patients receive timely care.

Conclusion
Technology shapes healthcare by enhancing the monitoring of patient results, effective communication, efficient management of data, remote care capabilities, and personalized treatment. The technologies are making healthcare accessible and efficient, thus better facilitating the ultimate goal: improved patient outcomes. The advancement of technology will only improve how healthcare is delivered.
