Technology is the technical means people use to improve their surroundings. It is also a knowledge of using tools and machines to
do tasks efficiently.
We use technology to control the world in which we live. Technology is people using knowledge,
tools, and systems to make their lives easier and better.
People use technology to improve their ability to do work. Through technology,
people communicate better. Technology allows them to make more and better
products. Our buildings are better through the use of technology. We travel in more
comfort and speed as a result of technology. Yes, technology is everywhere and can make
life better.

• Nearly all medical technologies will transmit something -
– an image– a report– a point of data
• and IT will have to capture, send, sort and store these streams.

• Virtual visits• Remote Patient
Management
– Patient & clinician no longer have to be in proximity for the delivery of care
– Technology can transport brainpower and information to manage difficult to reach populations
– ICUs likely to benefit from centralized, round-the-clock management
– Some workforce shortages will be alleviated through remote management of patients

• IT drives efficiency:
– wireless technologies enable information entry, access at the bedside
– promise an end to lost wheel chairs, infusion pumps or patients
– provide direct access to clinicians and staff, even off-site
– Complex choices in planning for IT infrastructure
