Question

Forecast future innovation based on present uses of technology in public health

Answer 1

Future technology use in public health field:

The Unites States of America can transform its healthcare system to make available inexpensive, unified and quality healthcare to all the patients. If the country needs to achieve this, a transformation requires re-modeling of some aspects of the health care policies and technology which is the largest section of the health car. Physicians, nurses, and other professionals who do not use online sources to get up-to-ate information are practicing within a professional standard of care that will need to change as the complexity of clinical decision making escalates.

Health care is one of the most important sectors, which has adopted great technological changes to provide value delivery to patients. As, i believe by seeing the current trends then I am very much optimistic that health care and medical technology sector will be developed to a more sophisticated level. The failure of machines will be improved and one can say that the reliability of medical intervention will be upgraded to highest possible level. The growth of biomedical knowledge and the ubiquitous availability of computer-based information access and knowledge management tools will expand the types of jobs in the health care workforce and provide new business opportunities for support industries. No current category of health professional appears to face extinction, but pressure will mount to abandon the current model of autonomous practitioners depending upon their personal memory and experience to deliver optimal care.

Technological advances in the field of genetic engineering are rapid and showing promising results of DNA editing technologies. Due to the complex genetic regulation and vastness of the human genome is it a difficult task to edit the gene for resistance to an infection into the human genome. Recently a newer technique of gene editing is becoming popular termed as CRISPR, with help of viral transduction mechanism it is capable of modifying the gene responsible the initiation of infection in the organism.

The development of microbiology and nano-technology has given pace to the medical and health care industry. The more scientific investigation and research will be successful in curing the incurable disease like cancer, AIDS, Zika, bird flu etc. The more development on internet and computer embedded technology front will give new heights to American health care sector initiatives. The medicine related research with technology intervention will be providing new medicines to the citizens across the world as well as it might be possible that the cost advantages with new technology may be achieved. The treatment time might be reduced to few hours; the case like heart surgery, limb transplant, blood cancer, brain surgery etc. may be done with the help of technology at the rate of 100 percent accuracy.
