Health monitoring devices
Smartwatches and fitness bands are useful for monitoring
human health. These electronic devices accurately calculate and report heart rate, sleep quality, blood flow rate, and daily walking
distance. Apple Watch, Fitband, etc. are health monitoring devices that people
can use regularly.
Modern electronic devices are mostly used to detect sugar
levels. Freestyle Libre and Dexcom can directly monitor the level
of sugar in the blood.
Electronic chemical devices, such as Biostrap and Biostickers, are very
useful for understanding the body's condition through human urine and blood.
Mobile diagnostic devices, such as KardiaMobile and Withings BPM Connect, are small and portable devices that can perform tests such as ECG, blood pressure, and scans.
Just as we think about maintaining our health, we can also
think about maintaining our mental health. Mental health devices such as Muse
and Calm Mind Wearables are brainwave-based devices that can improve stress,
sleep and mental peace.
Improving health through artificial intelligence
Artificial intelligence is also used to improve health. Some
AI technologies help in creating AI-based advice, diagnosing diseases by their
symptoms, identifying diseases and creating personalized treatment plans. IBM
Watson Health and Ada Health help in creating treatment plans.
With the help of Zebra Medical Vision AI, it is possible to
analyze and accurately identify diseases in the body. Diagnosing diseases becomes easy by analyzing medical treatment
images.
Modern AI-based applications like Woebot and Wysa can provide
simple psychological advice and this AI technology provides various meditation
guidelines to keep mental health in check.
AI apps like MyFitnessPal provide various advice to keep a
person's overall health in check. They understand the diet, exercise, and sleep
habits and provide health advice accordingly.
Artificial intelligence is beneficial for discovering new
drugs and improving existing drugs with artificial intelligence technology like
Benevolent AI and Insilico Medicine. Expertise in chemistry and drug
repurposing is greatly helpful in research and drug development.
Advances in health due to technological development
Technological development makes it possible to detect and
prevent diseases early. This increases the lifespan of a person, and in
addition, it allows them to get rid of the disease sooner.
New technological developments create great opportunities to
improve personal health. For example, new electronic devices make it easier to get health
care and treatment advice.
New technological devices used in hospitals help reduce time
and costs. This allows doctors to treat patients faster in hospitals.
Decisions related to human health can be made accurately and quickly. Continuous monitoring of blood pressure and sugar levels allows hospitals to make immediate health decisions and treat patients.
