Shared By The Many: Advances in technology are allowing for the provision of affordable, decentralized healthcare for the masses and are lowering the barriers to entry in less developed markets.
The analysis in PSFK’s Future of Health Report has yielded a number of insights, the most evident of which is mobile technology as a catalyst for change. The mobile phone and connected tablet computer are allowing for the distribution of a broad range of medical and support services. This is especially important in countries with little or no healthcare infrastructure and areas in which there are few trained healthcare professionals. These technologies also allow trained professionals to perform quality control remotely.
Amongst the many significant developments is a shift towards one-on-one, in- field diagnostics and monitoring. Services that were once only available at a doctor’s office or hospital are now available on-demand through low-tech, affordable solutions. Personal systems allow for ‘good enough’ diagnostics that would have been difficult, expensive and timely to attain previously.
Using a basic phone with adapted software, a health worker can test for myriad symptoms - even cancer. This information can be relayed to a central medical care center where doctors and trained professionals can react to the data, provide prompt diagnosis and suggest treatment options. The ability to capture this data and get quick responses remotely means better healthcare, fewer trips to the hospital (which, for many means days away from home and family), and less time away from work.
A change is also occurring that is seeing increased access to and sharing of health information. This is made possible by the proliferation of systems designed to overcome infrastructure insufficiencies. these systems are enabling the broadcast of information and receipt of subsequent feedback in virtually any setting. From ‘town crier’ systems to ‘internet by text’, the collective knowledge found on the web is being made available to populations around the world who previously lacked access. The connectivity that is enabling the sharing of health information is also powering the growth of social networks focused on health and medical care. These networks are allowing professionals, health workers and individuals to connect and share knowledge quickly.
PSFK’s Future of Health Report details 15 trends that will impact health and wellness around the world. Simple advances such as off-the-grid energy and the introduction of gaming into healthcare service offerings sit alongside more future-forward developments such as bio-medical printing. It is our hope that this report will inspire your thinking and lead to services, applications and technologies which will allow for more available, quality healthcare.

Wide adoption of smartphones and availability of low-cost sensors has resulted in seamless and continuous monitoring of physiology, environment, and public health notifications. However, personalized digital health and patient empowerment can become a reality only if the complex multisensory and multimodal data is processed within the patient context. Contextual processing of patient data along with personalized medical knowledge can lead to actionable information for better and timely decisions. We present a system called kHealth capable of aggregating multisensory and multimodal data from sensors (passive sensing) and answers to questionnaire (active sensing) from patients with asthma. We present our preliminary data analysis comprising data collected from real patients highlighting the challenges in deploying such an application. The results show strong promise to derive actionable information using a combination of physiological indicators from active and passive sensors that can help doctors determine more precisely the cause, severity, and control level of asthma. Information synthesized from kHealth can be used to alert patients and caregivers for seeking timely clinical assistance to better manage asthma and improve their quality of life.

Patients’ own expectations for technology are growing and they have shared that digital technologies need to become more integral in the care delivery process. In the U.S., nearly half of Americans would opt for online capabilities vs. handling over the phone, such as getting lab test results, filling out paperwork ahead of a doctor’s appointment, accessing their medical records, and filling prescriptions. Given the increasing desire for a tech-driven care experience, patients are helping to spur technology adoption by their providers.
As the population ages, technology adoption and information exchange within the long term and post-acute care settings becomes increasingly more important. How can post-acute care agencies overcome challenges of limited resources (financial and workforce) to bring patient care delivery into the 21st century? Patients who take prescription medications for chronic conditions are also feeling the pain from a lack of tech-adoption when their doctors typically don’t offer them access to online condition management tools or make themselves available online or via email for questions. Dr. Van Terheyden will discuss what needs to happen to break down these barriers.
Artificial intelligence to fight against covid19saritamathania
Artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning are playing a significant role in understanding and addressing the crisis caused by COVID-19. The technology mimic human intelligence and ingest great volumes of data to quickly chart patterns and identify insights.
One example is when BenevolentAI, a global leader in the development and application of artificial intelligence for drug discovery, took just few days to find that Baricitinib (a drug currently approved for rheumatoid arthritis, owned by Eli Lilly) is a strongest candidate and can be a potential treatment for COVID-19 patients.
This accelerated the clinical trials of #Baricitinib and Eli Lilly (a giant American Pharmaceutical company) has already commenced phase III clinical trials of Baricitinib to treat COVID-19.

Wearable Technology Futures 2020: A New Path for Public Health?Ogilvy Health
This report, Wearable Technology Futures 2020: A New Path for Public Health?, lends insight into some difficult but important questions currently challenging the health technology industry. For example, how can wearable technology better appeal to those who could most benefit from it—like the inactive or those fighting obesity—in addition to the health enthusiasts and technophiles currently embracing these wearable gadgets? Ogilvy health specialists brought their knowledge and expertise to bear on this question, as well as many others whose answers could help shape the future development of the technology.
Wearable Technology Futures 2020: A New Path for Public Health? is a three-part report: Part 1 analyses the approach developers are currently using and how this aligns with published thinking and evidence on behavior change techniques; Part 2 fuels the debate by suggesting, through six different scenarios, that the true potential of wearable technology can only be realized when we approach its application beyond the device and truly align around public health directives; and Part 3 takes an in-depth look at four popular devices and their associated apps as experienced by Ogilvy’s own user panel, clocking up a total of 23,040 hours.

Presentation what if the whole world is bad in data-driven decision-making ...Sami Laine
Due to Covid-19 pandemic, data-driven decision making has became a hot topic even for everyday discussions. Societies around the world have been completely closed down as a result of decisions based on clinical data and theoretical simulations. At the same time, public discussions and decision-making have been worryingly misguided due to their blindsided focus on diagnosing the virus and related hospitalization and death rates. Currently, more and more people are starting to realize how uncertain statistics are due to lack of correct diagnosis and death case data. To make a valid decision you should have enough high-quality data. However, decision-making is even more about correct understanding of the underlying phenomena and its systemic characteristics rather than data itself!

Indian Healthcare - Transitional Shift Towards Sustainable & Mobile Care Bhavik Doshi
The Indian Healthcare sector constitutes mainly of hospitals, pharmaceuticals, Diagnostics, Insurance and Medical Equipment. The Indian Healthcare industry is growing by a rate of CAGR of 18% and is expected to grow to CAGR of 21% till 2020. This instills the signs of fulfillment of Vision 2020. The major factors influencing are increase in population, shift in demograpics, rise in disposable income, Increase in incedence of lifestyle related disease, rising literacy, tax benefits and rise in insurance coverage. Moeover the public health expenditure in India is very low which give the platform for the development. A holistic approach of "stakeholder relationship management" is required to bring about the trasntional shift in healthcare. New models are required to provide affordable and accessible solutions of healthcare. Public Private Partnership (PPP) model can be a boon to be provided as a solution. India has always been taking a leapfrog in welcoming new technological platforms. A classic example of such leapfrog of technology is transition of telecommunation from landlines to cell phones avoiding the transition to pagers. The introduction of mHealth have already created a revolution in changing the dimension of healthcare & cut-shorted the boundary between doctors and rural patients and have enhanced outreach and coverage.

The Personalized Health Risk Profile: A New Tool for Safety and Occupational ...Richard Hartman, Ph.D.
This presentation introduces the Personalized Risk Health Profile (PRHP), a mathematical process to quantitatively evaluate personalized health risks by integrating workplace, lifestyle, and environmental exposure (the root cause of disease) data from traditional and new personal monitoring technologies combined with individual health histories and genomic data to provide a new and novel capability for the safety and health professionals and policymakers. The PRHP creates for the first time a mechanism to better understand the relationships between a worker's health, genetic predispositions, and exposures through mathematical expression and process, ultimately providing a modern tool to better understand the effects of exposures from the workplace, environment, as well as day-to-day activities. More importantly, the PRRP displays individual and population risks through user-friendly visualizations bridging the gap between "Population Health" and "Personalized Medicine" so safety and health professionals can recommend data-driven interventions to mitigate individual risks to improve health/performance, and policymakers and decision-makers can make more informed policy and resource decisions.

Title: The Future Digital Health Consumer Here Today –Toward Personalized Preventive Medicine
La Jolla, CA
The state of the art in behavioral machine learning for healthcareAfrica Perianez
The use of smart devices and wearables is becoming increasingly popular. This allows patients to be continuously monitored and provides a huge amount of health-related data that, if properly analyzed, can be used to improve their health by predicting potential future conditions. Advanced machine learning techniques do permit such analysis, and thus serve to forecast the evolution and health challenges of individual patients. This includes, for instance, issues as critical as early detection of heart disease.
But, moreover, the whole healthcare sector is currently undergoing a profound transformation. The rich profusion of digital data is fostering a move from more traditional approaches towards a data-driven prevention model.
In this talk I survey state of the art methods that allowed an AI-based early diagnosis and risk assessment for individual patients, using information that may include health records, genomic and wearable device data, medical imagery and online physician reviews. I will focus on methods that can be employed to forecast future events affecting a specific patient and serve to evaluate wearable device data and assist healthcare industry in undertaking a patient-focused data-driven preventive approach. Additionally, I introduce how machine-learning-based gamification techniques can be employed to motivate individual users to improve their health condition and achieve personalized challenges.
