FREMONT, CA: Professionals in the medical sector understand the serious importance of patient involvement. Technology helps to communicate more effectively with patients than before. Several clinics, hospitals and medical institutions are using modern technologies to provide relevant and important data to physicians, nurses and patients. These procedures are convenient to help medical experts provide appropriate care while saving valuable time and money.
Here are four current trends in digital patient management:
Devices Connected
Several individuals now have access to connected devices that measure and record valuable health-related data. The information collected by these gadgets is intended to provide accurate data for physicians to effectively diagnose the well-being of their patients.
For example, a person might wear a fitness tracker on their wrist as they go about their day. This wearable device may have health-related features such as 24-hour heart rate monitoring, calorie monitoring, and sleep quality measurement. Physicians may then gather data from the device's connected app to see if the patient has a problem with their well-being.
Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Learning Machinery (ML)
It may seem that the medical and healthcare industries are using AI and ML to improve their digital patient engagement. However, some organisations in these sectors may only be scratching the surface for these technologies.
Today, many medical and health care organisations are using social media chatbots to help with patient engagement. For example, social media AI can help clinics to make appointments with their patients without human intervention. Doctors may check their social media messages at their chosen time. Technology, in turn, should help to reduce the distractions of doctors and their secretaries. In addition, patients will not need to go through a relatively time-consuming process of calling clinics and hospitals for appointments.
