The latest innovation brought in medical technology, which is designed to be used friendly for the patients as well is based on the concept of utilizing modern smartphone technology, to make our life easier. Other areas also include artificial intelligence-based innovations that still require almost a decade not to be used as an exception, like robotic surgeries or nurses.
“From toddlers to adolescents, who’s the common best friend? Your Smartphone” said Sayed Quraishi. The smartphone plays a significant role in our daily life activities. To some extent, it leads our routine by managing our schedules, alarms, to-do lists, and whatnot. So why not manage your inhaler intake schedule too?
Smart inhalers are trackers for asthmatic patients, never miss your dose now. Connect your smartphone with the inhaler, set your dose and schedule, set the alarm on, and go on.

Another present has been presented for patients suffering from recurrent diseases, who require regular follow-up by their physician to maintain a check and balance of their condition. These diseases mainly include metastasis, hypertension or hypotension, insomnia, diabetes, asthma, or arthritis. According to Sayed Quraishi, “these are physiological diseases which cannot be cured but can be controlled through exercises and medicines, along with regular checkups.”
Such patients suffer by facing unintentional hassles of time management, transport, or coinciding with the physician’s availability to have an appointment. These consequences make it difficult for the patient to continue the treatment on regular basis.
Nowadays, Digital therapeutics have brought a time-saving and hassle-free solution that enables the patient to stay connected to the physician and lets the physician to be reported the patient’s health at the desired intervals.
It is application-based software that can be installed on the smartphone and linked to the doctor’s phone as well. It records the health details of the patient on both devices, maintaining a proper calendar to track the changes in health that occur now and then.
Coming to mental health, there are advancements in handling mental therapies. One of the most useful strategies to deal with mental health issues is Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT).

While an innovative concept of mental health therapy is introduced which is proved to be effective for treating ADHA (Attention Deficit Hyperactive Disorder) where the patient cannot sit still or pay attention for a long time.
This therapy is based on specialized video games which can be installed on the smartphone and are officially approved by FDA. Studies have reported positive outcomes in patients ages 8-12 by boosting the ability to remain still and focus better over a month of treatment, with showing null results of the unwanted effects.
To all cardiac patients, the door of innovation never closes for you. Contemporary treatments suggest using artificial pacemakers for heart patients, allowing the heart to receive electrical impulses that are generated artificially. This device regulates the heart’s electrical impulses but requires regular monitoring as well to check for proper performance, Sayed Quraishi.
The follow-ups are carried out in the presence of qualified professionals that can manipulate and understand the readings to check the performance of the pacemaker. These readings cannot be understood by a noble person.
The modern era has introduced smart pacemakers, making it easier for patients to monitor and keep a track of their pacemaker condition without visiting the physician, by simply connecting it to the smartphone via Bluetooth and manipulating the readings digitally which can be acknowledged by any noble person.
