Posted by Christopher, on 09/09/2016
The health sector has encountered many innovations with technological advances. Any innovation is seen as an improvement, and many sectors have had to receive profound changes. Digital technology has greatly affected the world of medicine and has brought about several changes. Now, we only talk about e-health.
Digital data for more efficient monitoring
The digitization of medical data used to be a subject of criticism, even today. Like everything else, it has its advantages but also its disadvantages. However, researchers are trying to eradicate the disadvantages concerning e-health. Indeed, a high quality monitoring system must be established to counter hacking.
Nowadays, it is possible to monitor, i.e., view one's digital medical records just by logging in via a connected device. Many people are reassured to have them because their case can be monitored, even in case of an emergency situation. This especially affects people with singular pathologies, why? Because it is essential that their prescriptions and treatments should not be subject to errors.
A digital notebook is therefore a good thing in terms of communication. Above all, errors in prescriptions and treatments must be avoided when recording data in the booklet. This digital notebook therefore allows for better communication.
More and more connected doctors
Nowadays, looking for a doctor is easy. Indeed, there are more and more connected doctors and it is enough to type the name of the specialist to know which pathology he treats and where he is located. Google, with its Knowledge Graph allows everyone to see everything about health news. In the near future, it will be possible to just insert a pathology or symptoms to have information related to it, i.e. screening process and basic treatment. The United States already enjoys the Exit Doctissimo which allows self-medication. All the data issued are verified and certified by doctors, specialists and laboratories.
