The Future of HealthCare

The time will come when medicine will organize itself into an undercover dictatorship.

"You feel like an object on a conveyor belt. You don’t feel human. Medical science has decided, that’s the way it is."----------A Patients Narrative

Healthcare is currently being transformed where Automation replaces physical labor and
Artificial Intelligence supplant human intellect. AI algorithms and machine learning are revolutionizing disease detection and treatment. In breast cancer, AI enables faster and more accurate mammogram reviews, reducing the need for biopsies.

For instance, a doctor can’t remember the last 200 research articles on a specific heart disease, but a computer can.

Patient's/Doctors contact will soon be minimal or nonexistence, consider the following technological breakthrough:

• Telemedicine and remote patient monitoring technologies allow patients to receive medical care remotely, reducing the need for in-person visits and improving access to healthcare, especially in rural or underserved areas.
•  Wearable biosensors (blood pressure cuff or pulse oximeter) gather key vitals from a
   patient and then wirelessly communicate that information to the patient or a third-party monitor.
•  BioProcessors, will not only gather information, but could also diagnose illnesses and even forecast our health. They’ll give us instantaneous analysis of various parameters.
• The Internet of Medical Things refers to the network of interconnected medical devices, sensors, and wearables that collect and transmit health data for monitoring, diagnosis, and treatment purposes. IoMT technologies enable real-time monitoring of patients, remote diagnostics, and proactive healthcare management.
• Hospitals now have facilities for point-of-care 3D manufacturing, applications include personalized implants, prosthetics, and surgical models.
• Robot (STAR) surgical technology, which doesn’t depend on a doctor’s manual capability. STAR was developed to apply stitches with the same level of skill as top surgeons, all through the use of a 3D imaging system and precise touch sensors—all on its own.
• Nanorobots that invade the cells of cancerous tumors via the bloodstream, delivering medication directly to target sites. The nanorobots travel from the injection site of a patient through flagellated, self-propelling bacteria, which contain cancer-fighting drugs. The nanorobots detect hypoxic areas—spots in the tumors that lack oxygen—and deliver powerful medication in precise locations to keep the surrounding healthy tissues and organs intact.
•  Biometric devices will make internal monitoring systems transparent, allowing us to use the information these systems are gathering for more successful preventative daily care and better react to medical emergencies.
• Blockchain technology has the potential to revolutionize healthcare by providing secure and transparent storage and sharing of medical records, ensuring patient privacy, interoperability, and data integrity. Blockchain-based solutions can streamline administrative processes, reduce healthcare fraud, and improve the security of electronic health records (EHRs).

Precision medicine, also known as personalized medicine, involves tailoring medical treatment and interventions to individual patients based on their genetic makeup, lifestyle, and environmental factors. Advances in genomics, proteomics, and bioinformatics enable clinicians to develop targeted therapies and interventions that are more effective and have fewer side effects.

Eventually:
Biosynthetically grown organ replacement, skin would be grown, or 3D printed if a graft for a third-degree burn is needed. Whilst pushing the limits of evolution, we are yet to discover a way to prolong youth......
