Technological Advancements in Medicine
Technology is very important to me and to the rest of the world. The reason it is so important to me is that I like computer and hope to find a career as an Information Systems Manager. This career I want to pursue uses Technology to Its max. I love that technology is a very adaptive thing and that new things come out every single day. Without technology we wouldn’t be where we are at today. To name a few we have made advancements in health, communication, science, information technology, etc. Today’s society is different to the one that existed not so many years ago; in fact, it is constantly changing.

Minimally invasive surgeries have cut down medical spending and employee absenteeism. Technology has made it a faster. Less costly option in the medical field. According to the National Institutes of Health, “Patients who undergo this minimal invasive surgery were consistently associated with significantly fewer days of absence from work.” According to Jayanthi, “The wearable medical device market is growing at a compound annual growth rate of 16.4 percent a year”. Wearable medical devices and sensors are simply another way to collect data, which Dr. Chopra says is one of the aims and purposes of healthcare. “Sensors and wearable technology could be as simple as an alert sent to a care provider when a patient falls down or a bandage that can detect skin pH levels to tell if a cut is getting infected, anything we are currently using where a smart sensor could be is part of that solution," Dr. Chopra says. "We're able to take a lot of these data points to see if something abnormal is happening." There has also been a new technological device just created that uses deceased people’s hearts and brings the heart back to life to pumps blood for people in need. A new device that can preserve the hearts of the recently-deceased might help people in need of a
