Now that app development has started to gain momentum. Developers have also started to incorporate more advanced technologies into healthcare apps.
Technologies like Wearables, Virtual Reality, Blockchain, and Artificial Intelligence are now used in developing mHealth to provide the services which will mark the beginning of improvements in the healthcare domain.
With the introduction of Artificial Intelligence in the Healthcare domain, things have taken a never-seen-before technological turn. This amalgamation is bringing the much-awaited change in the Healthcare Industry.
These healthcare apps enable users to involve more with their personal health. AI further takes this personalization and provides features like diagnosis reports via prediction algorithms based on the data given by the users.
This is incredibly helpful as it saves the users a trip to the hospital, for they can also get access to a human specialist if the need arises. These facts are just a small part of something that is majorly changing the Healthcare sector.
Here are some other major benefits which AI provides when incorporated in your healthcare mobile app:-
● Helps in Making Informed Diagnosis
Using AI developed mobile apps allows you to organize treatment plans and patients route to diagnosis. It provides physicians with all the information and medical data that they need to make an informed diagnosis report. It minimizes the chances of the wrong diagnosis which considered a major fallout of this industry.
One great example is Anthem’s CareSpree app which uses this AI technology and
the data which is used by the algorithm to diagnose the reports includes users’ age, gender, medical history, and symptoms.
● Secure Storage of Medical Records
Most of the healthcare mobile app of today contain the feature of Cloud storage. It has emerged as a pivotal feature that was much needed and has changed the system of keeping records to its core.
From collecting, storing, and normalizing data to tracing the lineage – AI does it all for reshaping the present healthcare system for good.
● Treatment Plans Designing
A program for oncologists was launched by IBM Watson which presents the medical staff a number of treatment options based on evidence. It has the capability to examine and analyze the context of all structured and unstructured data in the clinical notes.
Besides this high-level program, healthcare apps are developed by app development companies in a way to analyze and examine the data given by the users and then generate diagnosis reports or reports of possible treatment options.
● Drug Creation
What used to take years of extensive research and experiment now can be done in a day. Creating Pharmaceuticals by using clinical trials methods can take years to complete. It is not just time-consuming but rather a costly method for sure.
With the help of AI, we can now find drugs that hold the capability of treating deadly diseases. Scientists use AI technology for examining existing drugs and redesign them to cure other diseases as well. This process is not efficient, however, AI made it so.
● Healthcare System Analysis
We have all witnessed the outdated approach of the Healthcare System and how it needed improvisations. With the overall development of the Healthcare sector, Healthcare System also had it coming. With the help of AI, every data related to doctors, medical staff, patients and treatments can be easily retrieved.
By mining the data, hospitals can easily make reports on the errors they are committing in treatments of certain medical conditions and can anticipate the measure they should take in response.
● Chatbots
Chatbots are a boon to the healthcare industry. With the help of this AI feature included in apps developed for hospitals, it enables users to fix appointments with doctors, or report problems that you might be facing.
● Pain Management
This is still emerging and underdeveloped areas of healthcare. However, it is highly useful even now. As it turns out, leveraging virtual reality combined with artificial intelligence can make simulated realities that have the capability to distract patients from the current source of their pain.
Johnson and Johnson Reality Program is another example of AI meeting VR. In brief, J&J has developed a simulated environment that uses rules-based algorithms to train doctors and medical staff in a simulated environment to get better at their job.
This is just the beginning of the developments in the Healthcare Sector. We convinced that AI has more potential to deliver impeccable services and technologies, by integrating with other known technologies. It will make possible whatever is impossible as of now.
