The dimensions of healthcare quality refer to various attributes or aspects that define the standard of healthcare services. These dimensions are used to evaluate, measure, and improve the quality of care provided to patients. A comprehensive understanding of these dimensions ensures that healthcare systems can address various aspects of patient care effectively and holistically. Dimensions of Healthcare Quality and Performance of care include the following; Appropriateness, Availability, Competence, Continuity, Effectiveness, Efficiency, Efficacy, Prevention, Respect and Care, Safety as well as Timeliness.

Medical Technology Tackles New Health Care Demand - Research Report - March 2...pchutichetpong
M Capital Group (“MCG”) predicts that with, against, despite, and even without the global pandemic, the medical technology (MedTech) industry shows signs of continuous healthy growth, driven by smaller, faster, and cheaper devices, growing demand for home-based applications, technological innovation, strategic acquisitions, investments, and SPAC listings. MCG predicts that this should reflects itself in annual growth of over 6%, well beyond 2028.
According to Chris Mouchabhani, Managing Partner at M Capital Group, “Despite all economic scenarios that one may consider, beyond overall economic shocks, medical technology should remain one of the most promising and robust sectors over the short to medium term and well beyond 2028.”
There is a movement towards home-based care for the elderly, next generation scanning and MRI devices, wearable technology, artificial intelligence incorporation, and online connectivity. Experts also see a focus on predictive, preventive, personalized, participatory, and precision medicine, with rising levels of integration of home care and technological innovation.
The average cost of treatment has been rising across the board, creating additional financial burdens to governments, healthcare providers and insurance companies. According to MCG, cost-per-inpatient-stay in the United States alone rose on average annually by over 13% between 2014 to 2021, leading MedTech to focus research efforts on optimized medical equipment at lower price points, whilst emphasizing portability and ease of use. Namely, 46% of the 1,008 medical technology companies in the 2021 MedTech Innovator (“MTI”) database are focusing on prevention, wellness, detection, or diagnosis, signaling a clear push for preventive care to also tackle costs.
In addition, there has also been a lasting impact on consumer and medical demand for home care, supported by the pandemic. Lockdowns, closure of care facilities, and healthcare systems subjected to capacity pressure, accelerated demand away from traditional inpatient care. Now, outpatient care solutions are driving industry production, with nearly 70% of recent diagnostics start-up companies producing products in areas such as ambulatory clinics, at-home care, and self-administered diagnostics.

2. INTRODUCTION
2/1O
DIA meaning THROUGH
THERMY meaning HEAT or TEMPERATURE
Karl Franz Nagelschmidt
In 1908 German physician Karl Franz Nagelschmidt coined the term diathermy,
and performed the first extensive experiments on patients.
He wrote the first textbook on diathermy in 1913, which revolutionized the field.
DIATHERMY IS A THERAEUTIC TREATMENT COMMONLY PRESCRIBED
FOR MUSCULAR AND JOINT PAINS
3. A medical and surgical technique involving the production of heat in a
part of the body by high-frequency electric currents
It uses a high-frequency electric current to stimulate heat generation
within body tissues.
Increasing blood flow
relieving pain
improving the mobility of tissues
DIATHERMY
3/10
4. WORKING PRINCIPLE
Diathermy uses high-frequency electric current to produce heat deep inside a
targeted tissue.
It can reach areas as deep as two inches beneath the skin’s surface.
The diathermy machine does not apply heat directly to the body. Instead, the
waves generated by the machine allow the body to generate heat from within the
targeted tissue.
Diathermy is usually part of a complete physical therapy or rehabilitative
regimen.
Frequency and length of treatments vary.
4/10
6. ADVANTAGES
1. Used in surgical procedures.
2. Normally it is a painless procedure.
3. It is used as a relief from various pains.
4. It is used as a method to prevent bleeding.
5. With diathermy procedures, the rate of blood flow
increase which results in fast recovery.
6. Diathermy helps in relaxation.
6/10
7. DISADVANTAGES
1. The heat effect may cause injuries to eyes.
2. Patients with metal implants should be avoided
from diathermy procedures.
3. Shortwave diathermy during pregnancy can cause
many problems.
4. Diathermy may affect the function of pacemakers.
5. Some patients may experience superficial burns.
7/10
10. OUTLOOK
After a diathermy treatment, the affected area may feel more
flexible
You may be able to participate in physical therapy behaviors
more comfortably and for a longer period of time.
The increased blood flow to the affected area may induce
healing and tissue repair
