New innovations and discoveries are needed in the world of medicine, thereby triggering many breakthroughs in medicine, resulting in the systems and methods used today. Thus, many health workers are now beginning to apply digital technology to improve the quality and effectiveness of health services.
Digital technology, in particular, is vital to keep health services effective and relevant, especially to facilitate medical action and procedures - where technology can be used as a therapy as well as hospital administration and management. Therefore, it is important for health workers to keep up with the development of digital technology including medicines, therapies and other types of treatment.
Examples of important breakthroughs in digital technology are the use of Artificial Intelligence (AI), quantum computing, wearable technology, next-generation computing, augmented reality, virtual reality, and the internet of things (IoT).
Chris Penrose, senior vice president of US mobile operator AT & T's division of the Internet of Things, said that by connecting things that have never been linked before, nurses and doctors can better monitor patients. They can also improve the overall quality of life of patients, both at home and in health care facilities.
By understanding its functions in depth, nothing is impossible. For example, a usable technology can monitor patient statistics and the number of exercises performed. It helps doctors to monitor the progress of their patients through an app. In other words, technologies like augmented reality (AR) and virtual reality (VR) can be used to develop physical and mental therapy to help heal strokes and other injuries.
