The COVID-19 crisis has affected more than 188 countries and regions worldwide, causing large-scale loss of life and severe human suffering.
The ongoing crisis may be the worst major threat to the global economy, with drops in activity, employment, production and consumption worse than those seen during the 2008 financial crisis. COVID-19 has also exposed our weak healthcare systems, which was bound to happen in the future as well.
How do we move towards a healthier tomorrow?
For a start, greater investment in population health would make people, particularly vulnerable population groups, more resilient to health risks. The health and socio-economic consequences of the virus are felt more among the poor, stretching a social fabric already challenged by issues such as global warming and caste inequalities.
This crisis has opened eyes for millions and made them care about what tomorrow holds for them.
Despite much talk about bringing in positive changes in health management systems, even across the richer OECD countries, barely 3% of total health spending is devoted to prevention. Building resilience for populations also requires a greater focus on solidarity and redistribution in social protection systems to address underlying structural inequalities and poverty.
Strengthening our health systems are the need of the hour. 2020 was just a rude awakening.
The healthcare eco-system has been increasingly digitalising in many countries like wearables and personal health-monitoring devices. IoT-enabled devices are designed to transmit a patient’s health data to a doctor or a medical staff in real-time. Having technology that transmits pre-existing health symptoms of patients is urgent today so that criticality and upcoming hospitalisation requirements can be predicted, not just reacted to. Healthcare professionals are bridging the physical gap between patients and medical practitioners by embracing these digital technologies, especially with patients in-home quarantine.
So how does Arnowa’s tech fit this cause?
Arnowa’s IoT-enabled Carbon technology looks after patient-tracking solutions by transmitting crucial patient data to medical practitioners, in real-time.
The application is:
- Supported by Artificial intelligence and Cognitive algorithms,
- Provides detailed insights, predictive performance, comparative analysis, and alarming anomalies.
The best part is that our proprietary customised features seamlessly integrate with your existing health apps and other software packages as required.
Some benefits we offer with this technology:
With the help of healthcare-specific IoT applications such as ours, we open up immense opportunities, and the huge amount of data generated by these connected devices hold the potential to transform healthcare.
