Healthcare Vision for 2035 - Digital Salutem
Healthcare vision for 2035 is going to be related with equity. The advent and growth of telemedicine, working with robots, progression and end-to-end integration with supportive wearable healthcare gadgetry and many others will give consumers new vision of personalized healthcare, individualized and strategic. As you know my vision is make healthcare uncomplicated. I was inspired by Simon Philip Rost's post on LinkedIn to write this article. In the coming years, we will see a shift towards equity in healthcare. The World Economic Forum's strategic outlook in cooperation with L.E.K. Consulting by Shyam Bishen, Ph.D., MS, MBA and Pierre Jacquet provides a healthcare vision for 2035 I've added some insights that I hope will help you understand how is the vision of healthcare in 2035.

Recent Developments in Health Technology
In times of crisis, immense creativity often comes to the fore, precipitating major changes. This has been the case in the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) era. Healthcare technology has leaped to the fore to help healthcare providers manage their patients better by reducing the dangers inherent in personal contact, waiting in crowded waiting rooms or laboratories, and hospitalizations.
4 priorities to reaffirm patient voice in the coming era of AI healthcare
Healthcare is becoming both increasingly data driven and automated. Drawing on a largescale review of artificial intelligence developments in the field of mental health and wellbeing, Elizabeth Morrow, Teodor Zidaru-Bărbulescu and Rich Stockley, find that opportunities for patients to influence and inform these future technologies are often lacking, which in turn may heighten disillusionment and lack of trust in them. As such, they propose four priorities for new data driven technologies to ensure they are ethical, effective and equitable for diverse patient groups. As the pandemic has sadly made clear, health policymakers and practitioners often make rapid, complex, life and death decisions. It has also demonstrated the pivotal role of technology in aiding such decisions in infection control and vaccine development.

A Scoville Heat Scale For Measuring The Progress Of Emerging Technologies In 2021
The cognitive technologies AI & ML also have quite a hot measurement on the Scoville pepper scale. AI & ML are not necessarily new innovations, but they are ones that still have yet to reach full potential. In 2020, both AI & ML started to flourish -- and it will continue to do so throughout 2021. At its core, AI & ML are really about data integration, quality (image definition) and collection and processing of that data that allows for meaningful analytics. Applications for AI are increasing in variety and capability (especially automation) and are now being applied to almost every industry vertical, including finance, healthcare, energy, transportation, and cybersecurity. Most intriguing, but only in the earliest stages is AL/ML neural human augmentation. Neuromorphic technologies, and human/computer interface will extend our human brain capacities, memories and capabilities.

Q&A: The embedded ethics approach in AI development
An interdisciplinary team at the Technical University of Munich (TUM) advocates the integration of ethics from the very beginning of the development process of new technologies. Alena Buyx, professor of ethics in medicine and health technologies, explains the embedded ethics approach. The discussions surrounding a greater emphasis on ethics in AI research have greatly intensified in recent years, to the point that one might speak of "ethics hype," and many committees in Germany and around the world such as the German Ethics Council or the EU Commission High-Level Expert Group on Artificial Intelligence have responded. They are all in agreement: More ethics are required in the development of AI-based health technologies. But how do things look in practice for engineers and designers?
Cutting-edge 'social' robot holds BINGO lessons for OAPs in a care home
A cutting-edge'social' robot designed to keep people company, is to hold bingo lessons for pensioners in a British care home as part of a study. Stevie the robot is so advanced he was recently named one of the best inventions of 2019 and featured on the cover of Time Magazine. There he will keep residents involved, entertained, and engaged - and rather bizarrely he will even be leading bingo sessions. Recently back from a visit to the States, Stevie has been placed into the care of experts from the University of Plymouth's Centre for Health Technology. Dr Conor McGinn, assistant professor at Trinity College Dublin, said: 'This pilot is the start of an exciting new relationship with the University of Plymouth.

Health Technology: The Digital Revolution - Part 1: AI & Imaging -- Clustermarket
Chronic diseases are on the rise, with a threefold increase in the number of those with cancer in the last 40 years (1). In the face of mounting pressure in healthcare, all available technologies are being leveraged to deliver innovations that will provide sustainable long-term solutions. Hospitals are producing up to 50 petabytes (10 15) of data annually (2). With this in mind, image-analysis tools have been developed using AI that assist clinicians in the diagnoses of such conditions and provide increased precision for administering treatments such as radiotherapy. Recent developments in imaging are able to show tissues in three dimensions, allowing these specially trained AI algorithms to analyse them AI and imaging is a particularly important innovation for cancer treatment as it enables the precise location, type and stage of tumour to be identified (3).
9 health technologies every executive should be excited about in 2019 - Healthcare Weekly
Get the latest in healthcare leadership, news, and innovation. There's never been a more exciting time to be in the digital healthcare space than right now. With the explosion of content capabilities, endless social opportunities and underpriced attention in so many platforms – there's a huge amount to be excited about. Health technologies encompass all the devices, medicines, vaccines, procedures and systems designed to streamline healthcare operations, lower costs and enhance quality of care. Artificial intelligence (AI), blockchain, voice search, chatbots and virtual reality (VR) are among the most promising health technologies in 2019.
Do new technologies take ethics out of healthcare?
As such, even though these technologies bring huge potential and opportunities, they still need to be closely monitored. The University of New South Wales Research Ethics and Compliance Support Director Dr Ted Rohr told HITNA that issues around ethics arise when healthcare access data from medical records for research, for example. "Ethics is all about deciding whether the use of technology is appropriate and is used for public good. For example, AI has its positives, but it can be misused. So, having an ethical framework allows the proper use of medical databases for research and experiments with patients using devices," he said.

Health Technology: The Future is Now HIMSS19
In the coming year of 2019, there is so much to look forward to globally in health technology at HIMSS19 and continue the conversation beyond. The future of health technology seems to move a little bit faster each year and the number of tools or platforms to monitor can feel a bit pressing from any perspective. However, my focus will be on artificial intelligence (AI), cloud computing, wearables and augmented reality (AR) as all hold my interest due to their growth potential. They all have practical applications for clinicians and patients, as well as chief information officers who are investing time and research into security. Plus, all have opportunities for implementation in the coming years with the ultimate goal of moving into real word practice and education.
