Medicine Before the 20th Century

• From the earliest documentary evidence surviving from the ancient civilizations of Babylonia, China, Egypt, and India, it is clear that longevity, disease, and death are among humanity's oldest preoccupations. From ancient times to the Renaissance, knowledge of the living world changed little, the distinction between animate and inanimate objects was blurred, and speculations about living things were based on prevailing ideas about the nature of matter

Early Use Newer Diagnostic Methods

• Among the first of the rapid diagnostic approaches was immunoassay detection of group A streptococcal antigen in patients with pharyngitis.14 These systems are intended for use in primary care or other ambulatory care settings; they provide results within minutes and are highly specific. Their greatest drawbacks are cost and lack of sensitivity

Emerging High Technologies shape the Future

• Those brief examples of the effect of high-technology practice against completely different backgrounds of the provision of health care reflect the emerging pattern of medical practice in the 20th century. In particular, they emphasize how the rapid developments in high-technology medical practice and the huge costs that have accrued may have dwarfed expenditure on preventive medicine, certainly in some industrial countries and others that have gone through the epidemiological transition22-02-2016

How the World reduces Infections with Technology

• The attainment of the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) is closely entwined with progress in reducing the burden of infectious diseases. MDG 6 focuses on combating HIV/AIDS, malaria and other diseases while steps towards meeting MDG 4 (reducing child mortality), MDG 5 (improving maternal health) and MDG 7C (improving basic sanitation and sustainable access to safe drinking water) also relate to the treatment of infectious diseases.

Need for Technology for managing Ageing population

1Chronic Disease is the most important healthcare issue and cost driver in our healthcare system . 2The management of chronic disease requires a fundamental transformation in the way care is delivered3. To support this business transformation the technology infrastructure needs to evolve to support One-Person-One-Record and Evidence Based Coordinated Care4. This will require the change from a simple hub-and-spoke platform to a sophisticated ehealth platform that can provide electronic health record, as well as chronic disease data and services

22-02-2016

The Negative Side of Technology

Vision problems • People who spend hours in front of the computer (either at work or leisure) are prone to asthenopia. Of course, you will say your computer screen is of high quality and I agree: some monitors affect us more than others. If you are still using a CRT type (the one that is not flat and has a large thing behind it), please get rid of it.22-02-2016
