S&T IN MEDICAL
INTRODUCTION
FIELD
The growth in healthcare science and
technology has made patient care far superior
and more reliable in most cases by providing
new machines (such as MRIs), medicines, and
treatments that save lives and improve the
chance of recovery for many.
2
PRIMARY GOALS
1) IMPROVING THE HEALTH OF POPULATIONS
2) IMPROVING THE RESPONSIVENESS OF THE HEALTH SYSTEM TO THE POPULATION IT SERVES
3) FAIRNESS IN FINANCIAL CONTRIBUTION
HISTORY OF MEDICINE
AND SCIENCE
SUSHRUTA IS THE FATHER OF SURGERY.
HE WAS THE ONE WHO SUGGESTED THAT A
STUDENT OF SURGERY SHOULD LEARN ABOUT
HUMAN AND ORGAN BY BISECTING A DEAD BODY
CHARAK IS THE FATHER OF MEDICINE
HE INTRODUCED NUMEROUS MEDICAL TERMS UNIVERSALLY
USED BY PHYSICIANS, INCLUDING SYMPTOM, DIAGNOSIS,
THERAPY, TRAUMA AND SEPSIS.
PAST PRESENT
Didn’t have access to medical facilities Access came closer
Used to travel long distance to get Easily accessible at fingertips through
treatment and medicines online services
• IT CREATED JOBS IN HEALTHCARE/MEDICAL SECTOR.
• IT ATTRACTED HEALTHCARE PROFESSIONALS TO WORK IN
THESE AREAS , WHICH CAN HELP IMPROVE QUALITY OF
MEDICAL CARE AVAILABLE

BRAIN TALK
BRAINTALK IS A SOFTWARE SOLUTION TO
DETECT COGNITIVE DEFICITS BASED ON A
FIVE-MINUTE SPEECH SAMPLE. DEVELOPED
IN COLLABORATION BETWEEN ISRAEL’S
NATIONAL INSTITUTE FOR THE
REHABILITATION OF THE BRAIN INJURED
(NIRBI) AND US-BASED SENTIMETRIX, THE
SOFTWARE HAS A PATENT-PENDING
INTELLIGENT ALGORITHM THAT CAN
DETECT COGNITIVE DEFICITS FROM DIVERSE
SOURCES TO SCREEN FOR COGNITIVE DEFICITS
FOLLOWING KNOWN OR SUSPECTED DAMAGE.
MICROFLUDIC CHIP
THE MICROFLUIDIC CHIP PROVIDES A PLATFORM
TO ANALYZE A WIDE VARIETY OF VIRUS AND
BACTERIA, LIMITED ONLY BY CHANGES IN
REAGENT DESIGN NEEDED TO DETECT NEW
PATHOGENS OF INTEREST.
THE CHANNELS FORMING THE CHIP ARE
CONNECTED TOGETHER TO ALLOW FLUIDS TO
PASS THROUGH DIFFERENT CHANNELS, GOING
FROM ONE PLACE TO ANOTHER.
ROBOTIC CHECKUPS
InTouch Health released their new invention named RP-VITA. The new device can be
used for basic check-ups. There are cameras, 3-D mapping sensors, microphones,
and a stethoscope. The robot uses skype so doctors can speak with the patients as if
they were there.
Robotic surgery
Robotic surgery is probably among the lesser-known
forms of medical technology. Nowadays, scientists
and medical professionals alike have made
substantial progress in making robotic surgery more
mainstream. However, technology has made it
possible for surgeries to be performed with minimal
human contact..
ROBOTIC SURGERY TREATMENT IN INDIA AT APOLLO
HOSPITALS OFFERS MANY BENEFITS TO PATIENTS AS
COMPARED TO OPEN SURGERY, INCLUDING:
SHORTER HOSPITALIZATION
After the US FDA approval of the da Vinci
system in 2000,[2] India got its first urologic
robotic installation at the All India Institute of
Medical Sciences, New Delhi, in 2006.
ARTIFICIAL ORGAN
ARTIFICIAL ORGAN, ANY MACHINE, DEVICE, OR
OTHER MATERIAL THAT IS USED TO REPLACE THE
FUNCTIONS OF A FAULTY OR MISSING ORGAN OR
OTHER PART OF THE HUMAN BODY. ARTIFICIAL
ORGANS INCLUDE THE ARTIFICIAL HEART AND
PACEMAKER THE USE OF DIALYSIS TO PERFORM
KIDNEY FUNCTIONS, AND THE USE OF ARTIFICIAL
SUBSTITUTES FOR MISSING LIMBS
AI IN MEDICAL FIELD
ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE IN MEDICINE IS
THE USE OF MACHINE LEARNING MODELS TO
SEARCH MEDICAL DATA AND UNCOVER
INSIGHTS TO HELP IMPROVE HEALTH
OUTCOMES AND PATIENT EXPERIENCES.
THE CHALLENGES THAT THE COVID-19 PANDEMIC CREATED
FOR MANY HEALTH SYSTEMS ALSO LED MANY HEALTHCARE
ORGANIZATIONS AROUND THE WORLD TO START FIELD-
TESTING NEW AI-SUPPORTED TECHNOLOGIES, SUCH AS
ALGORITHMS DESIGNED TO HELP MONITOR PATIENTS AND AI-
POWERED TOOLS TO SCREEN COVID-19 PATIENTS.
TECHNOLOGY IN MENTAL
HEALTH
OVER THE PAST YEAR, A NUMBER OF NEW TECHNOLOGIES HAVE
DEVELOPED THAT CAN ASSIST IN MEETING A PATIENT’S
CONTINUING MENTAL HEALTH DEMANDS. AS MANY THINGS WENT
ONLINE, A LOT OF PSYCHOLOGISTS AND PSYCHOTHERAPEUTICS
PROVIDE THEIR HELP VIA VIDEO COMMUNICATORS. THERE ARE
ALSO DIGITAL THERAPEUTICS (DTX),
E-PHARMACY
• INCREASED ACCESSIBILITY
• LOWER COST
• AUTHENTIC MEDICINES
• CONVENIENCE FOR CONSUMERS
HOW MEDICAL FIELD IS
EFFECTING OUR GDP
• THE HEALTHCARE SECTOR IN INDIA IS A SIGNIFICANT
CONTRIBUTOR TO THE COUNTRY'S GROSS DOMESTIC
PRODUCT (GDP).
• FACTORS AFFECTING GDP OF INDIA
1. LEVEL OF INVESTMENT
2.AVAILABILITY OF HEALTHCARE SERVICES
3. EFFICIENCY
• INDIAN GOVERNMENT WAS ESTIMATED TO
SPEND OVER TWO PERCENT OF THE COUNTRY'S GDP
ON HEALTHCARE IN FINANCIAL YEAR 2022. THIS WAS
FORECASTED TO REACH OVER 2.5 PERCENT OF THE
GDP BY FINANCIAL YEAR 2025.15
MEDICAL FACILITIES IN

LAUNCHED BY OUR FORMER PRIME MINSTER
MANMOHAN SINGH
THE HEALTH CARE INFRASTRUCTURE IN RURAL AREAS HAS
BEEN DEVELOPED AS A THREE TIER SYSTEM AS FOLLOWS.

SUMMARY
S&T IN MEDICAL
FIELD
Advances in healthcare technology, such as
the use of telehealth, electronic medical
records, hospital-based care to home-based
care, drone technology, genome sequencing,
digital tools, and artificial intelligence (AI), are
transforming healthcare right before our eyes
