Digital health technologies like electronic health records (EHRs) aim to make healthcare delivery more efficient, timely and effective. However, simply implementing technology for its own sake is not enough - technology must be used to truly transform clinical processes and improve patient outcomes. A "smart hospital" focuses on using information and digital tools to enhance clinical decision-making and support high quality care, rather than just replacing paper records. Health IT should help humans perform better rather than replace them.
Digitalization in the health industry can take several forms, including increasing patient safety, enabling telemedicine, and improving interactions between doctors and patients. Some of the biggest innovations in healthcare include using microchips to model clinical trials, wearable technology like Google Glass, 3D printed biological materials, optogenetics, hybrid operating rooms, digestible sensors, robotic nurse assistants, light bulbs that disinfect, and electronic underwear to prevent sores. Digitalization aims to connect people and data in a meaningful and secure way to transform every aspect of care delivery.
The National Digital Health Mission is a government initiative in India aimed at transforming the country's healthcare system through the use of digital technology. It seeks to establish a secure and interoperable health data ecosystem, provide individuals with digital health IDs, and improve access to quality healthcare services for all citizens. Given is the detailed presentation on the topic as the awareness related to this is required for the better outcome.
Artificial Intelligence (AI) is shaping and reshaping every industry under the sun. The Healthcare industry is not any exception.
In this presentation, I have discussed the basics of AI as well as how it is being used in various branches of the healthcare industry. I presented this topic in my departmental seminar in October 2021 and received appreciation as well as positive feedback in this regard.
Telemedicine has evolved from early 20th century ideas of using radio to connect doctors and patients remotely. In the 1960s and 1970s, government and private organizations invested in research on telemedicine. There are three main types of telemedicine: interactive, store-and-forward, and remote patient monitoring using mobile devices. Telemedicine provides benefits like lower costs, improved access to care, and reduced infection risk. However, insurance coverage and protecting medical data are disadvantages. Teleconsultation allows specialists to consult without travel via electronic means. Major international organizations support telemedicine research and applications. Saudi Arabia has implemented telehealth applications like Sehhaty and Anat.
Neuralink is a device being developed by Elon Musk's company that will be surgically implanted in the brain. It uses thin electrode threads injected into the brain's outer layer to communicate with brain cells via Bluetooth. The goal is to help paralyzed people control devices with their minds and treat neurological conditions. It works by reading electrical signals in the brain and could potentially allow controlling computers or telepathic communication. While it offers advantages like treating disorders, risks include potential hacking or legal issues that would need to be addressed.
Thalidomide was first developed by CIBA, a Swiss pharmaceutical company in the early 1950s, and subsequently introduced as Contergan by Chemi Grunenthal.
The drug was initially advertised as a sedative which would allow users to undergo a deep sleep in the absence of a hangover and with a reduced risk of developing drug dependency. At the time, basic testing was done on the drug, and it was considered not to have any toxic effects on humans.
However, unlike today’s level of rigorous testing, the drug was not analyzed for any potentially dangerous teratogenic effects.
In the 1950s, scientists did not know that the effects of a drug could be passed through the placental barrier and harm a foetus in the womb, so the use of medications during pregnancy was not strictly controlled. And in the case of thalidomide, no tests were done involving pregnant women.
As the drug was traded under so many different names in 49 countries, it took five years for the connection between thalidomide taken by pregnant women and the impact on their children to be made. A UK Government warning was not issued until May 1962.
One reason why researchers and doctors were slow to make this connection was due to the wide range of changes to foetal development. Limbs, internal organs including the brain, eyesight and hearing could all be affected.The first time the link between thalidomide and its impact on development was made public in a letter published in The Lancet from an Australian doctor William McBride, in 1961.
The drug was formally withdrawn by Chemie Grünenthal on 26 November 1961 and a few days later, on 2 December 1961, the UK distributors followed suit. However, it remained in many medicine cabinets under many different names.
In the few short years that thalidomide was available, it's estimated that over 10,000 babies were affected by the drug worldwide. Around half died within months of being born. The thalidomide babies who survived and their families live with the effects of the drug.
The Thalidomide Society was formed in 1962 by the parents of children affected by the drug thalidomide. The original aim of the Society was to provide mutual support and a social network as well as to seek compensation.
In 1972, a highly publicised campaign led by the Sunday Times newspaper helped to secure a further settlement for children affected by thalidomide in the UK.
Thalidomide forced governments and medical authorities to review their pharmaceutical licencing policies. As a result, changes were made to the way drugs were marketed, tested and approved both in the UK and across the world.
One key change was that drugs intended for human use could no longer be approved purely on the basis of animal testing. And drug trials for substances marketed to pregnant women also had to provide evidence that they were safe for use in pregnancy.

Digital Healthcare Trends: Transformation Towards Better Care RelationshipKumaraguru Veerasamy
Digital health encompasses digital care programs, technologies with health, healthcare, living, and society to enhance the efficiency of healthcare delivery and to make medicine more personalized and precise. With the increasing adoption of telemedicine, wearable devices, mobile health apps (especially during the recent COVID-19 pandemic) and VR/AR; digital health is poised to take healthcare forward.
MHealth or Mobile Health is an emerging and an innovative of medication in India, by doctors can communicate and treat their patients very conveniently even from far distances.
The document discusses the relationship between digital therapeutics and telemedicine. It notes that while digital therapeutics and telemedicine are not the same, telemedicine can play a role in clinical trials, prescriptions, and monitoring of patients using digital therapeutics. The COVID-19 pandemic has greatly accelerated the adoption of virtual clinical trials which rely on remote monitoring and delivery of investigational drugs to patients. Regulators have also relaxed some rules to help speed up trials of potential COVID-19 treatments. This shift towards remote and decentralized trials is expected to continue even after the pandemic.
This document discusses the evolution of healthcare and opportunities in digital health. It notes that healthcare is transitioning from a data poor to data rich science due to genomics, data science, mobile devices, and personalized medicine. This represents a shift from herd to personalized medicine. The document also discusses the growth of digital health funding and deals, increasing traction through FDA approvals and partnerships, and outlines a portfolio of digital health investment opportunities.
While E-health is based on networked I-C-T devices of the humans, operated by the humans for human healthcare and wellness, IOMT is a network of the ‘smart-devices’, operated by the devices for human healthcare and wellness. An estimated 160 million smart medical devices are expected to be connected in 2020. This number will increase exponentially. We need to be prepared for the disruptive influence of IOMT on the present-day healthcare paradigm. A major concern is the sheer magnitude of digital healthcare data generated by IOMT. Are we creating a "Digital Black hole" is a question for deep introspection.
During those disasters unmanned aircraft surveyed wrecked roads, bridges and rail lines. They spotted oil and gas leaks. They inspected damaged cell towers that had left thousands unable to call for help. "Drones became a literal lifeline," former Federal Aviation Administration chief Michael Huerta told the agency's drone advisory committee in November.
The drones used needed a special exemption from a set of FAA rules, known as Part 107, that normally require small drones to fly below 400 feet, stay within the operator's visual line of sight and avoid populated areas.

The trial aims to validate cost savings, reduce hospital admissions and visits, improve patient self-management, and evaluate the technology solution. Early results show reduced hospitalizations and home visits. Patients reported increased support and management of their conditions, while nurses found increased access to patient data and flexibility in care.
Organ and body donation can save lives by providing organs for transplant or bodies for medical research and education. There is a shortage of organs, with an average of 19 people dying each day waiting for a transplant. To be an organ donor, one must inform family of their wishes who can then notify doctors. Organs can be donated after death or a living donor may donate a kidney. While organ donation can save lives, there are some limitations in choosing recipients or donating organs and bodies simultaneously.
The document discusses mental health issues in India and proposes solutions. It notes that 7.5% of Indians currently suffer from mental disorders, which is projected to rise to 20% by 2020. However, India only has 4000 mental health professionals, mostly in urban areas, and spends very little on mental health. It proposes developing a mental health app that educates people, provides personalized services, and offers CBT-based therapy to address this issue by making support more accessible online. Wireframes and metrics for measuring the app's growth, engagement, user happiness, and revenue are outlined but not yet fully designed. The app aims to educate people and provide mental health services to help address major health problems in India.

This document discusses investing in mental health. It argues that investing in mental health makes economic sense for several reasons: the burden of mental illness is huge and costs societies enormous amounts in healthcare and lost productivity; mental health is essential for economic development; and some mental health interventions are highly cost-effective "best buys." It also notes that without proper mental health interventions, costs will continue to rise over time. The document provides information on current low levels of funding for mental health globally and argues for increased investment, focusing on priority actions identified by the WHO as affordable and effective.
This document discusses the relationship between cardiovascular disease and mental illnesses. It notes that depression is present in about 20% of outpatients with coronary heart disease and 33% of outpatients with congestive heart failure. Depression increases the risks of adverse cardiac events and mortality in patients with heart disease. It can also increase the risk of heart attack and coronary artery disease in healthy individuals. Depression is associated with unhealthy behaviors that interfere with heart disease treatment. Screening for depression is recommended for all cardiac patients.
Mental Health is now a household term and its importance to consumers shows no signs of slowing down. In fact, mental health is beginning to outpace physical health in terms of consumer importance. Some brands are already successfully disrupting the way we talk about mental health and how we provide support, but there is still work to be done and opportunity to be had. In this presentation, we unpack future opportunities with the most affected audiences and the most relevant sectors, including food and beverage, beauty and personal care, and the workplace.
A general overview on Social Work in Psychiatric Settings.
Global and National Statistics on Mental Health.
Role and Challenges of Psychiatric Social Worker.
Mental illnesses are highly prevalent worldwide but most countries allocate less than 2% of their health budgets to mental health. Effective and low-cost treatments are available but there is a treatment gap of over 75% in many low- and middle-income countries. Investing in mental health is important for several reasons: the burden of mental illness is huge and costs societies enormous amounts, mental health is essential for economic development, and some interventions have been shown to be highly cost-effective "best buys" that can reduce future health costs. Without adequate investment in mental health services and supports, individuals and societies cannot reach their full potential.

The Internet of Things (IoT) refers to connecting physical objects through sensors and software to the internet. This allows objects to collect and exchange data. IoT devices range from household appliances to industrial tools. IoT enables objects to send, receive, and both send and receive data. This allows for applications like smart homes, smart cities, and remote monitoring. Technologies like sensors, cloud computing, and machine learning have enabled the growth of IoT. IoT provides benefits to consumers through applications in home automation and transportation. Key industries that benefit include manufacturing, automotive, healthcare, and logistics. However, IoT also raises privacy and security concerns due to the sensitive data collected.
The document discusses the history and evolution of wearable technology. It describes how wearables started as small electronic devices designed to be worn and have become more powerful and efficient over time. An early precursor was the pedometer, which was initially conceived by Leonardo Da Vinci and later developed by others to count steps. In the 1960s, a Japanese professor promoted the use of a "10,000 steps meter" to encourage daily activity and fitness. Modern wearables are widely used for fitness/health tracking and the market is projected to grow significantly, driven in part by products for tracking steps, sleep, heart rate and other biometrics. Key players in the wearable technology market are mentioned.
The document discusses health care innovation. It defines innovation as new ways of doing things that improve outcomes. Health systems must constantly innovate to address changing disease burdens and select technologies within limited budgets. The most common types of innovation are product, process, position, and paradigm innovations. The document also discusses challenges to innovation like lack of adoption at scale and ossification impeding organizational change. It provides examples of potential innovations like adverse event prediction using patient data and telemedicine.
Henry Ford's invention of the moving assembly line revolutionized the automobile manufacturing process, reducing production time for a single vehicle from 12 hours to 90 minutes. Automatic replenishment ordering of supplies in a warehouse enhances process efficiency. L'Oreal developed an app called the L'Oréal Makeup Genius that allowed users to virtually try on makeup and sample products that suited their skin tone, achieving over seven million downloads.

Cell Therapy Expansion and Challenges in Autoimmune DiseaseHealth Advances
There is increasing confidence that cell therapies will soon play a role in the treatment of autoimmune disorders, but the extent of this impact remains to be seen. Early readouts on autologous CAR-Ts in lupus are encouraging, but manufacturing and cost limitations are likely to restrict access to highly refractory patients. Allogeneic CAR-Ts have the potential to broaden access to earlier lines of treatment due to their inherent cost benefits, however they will need to demonstrate comparable or improved efficacy to established modalities.
In addition to infrastructure and capacity constraints, CAR-Ts face a very different risk-benefit dynamic in autoimmune compared to oncology, highlighting the need for tolerable therapies with low adverse event risk. CAR-NK and Treg-based therapies are also being developed in certain autoimmune disorders and may demonstrate favorable safety profiles. Several novel non-cell therapies such as bispecific antibodies, nanobodies, and RNAi drugs, may also offer future alternative competitive solutions with variable value propositions.
Widespread adoption of cell therapies will not only require strong efficacy and safety data, but also adapted pricing and access strategies. At oncology-based price points, CAR-Ts are unlikely to achieve broad market access in autoimmune disorders, with eligible patient populations that are potentially orders of magnitude greater than the number of currently addressable cancer patients. Developers have made strides towards reducing cell therapy COGS while improving manufacturing efficiency, but payors will inevitably restrict access until more sustainable pricing is achieved.
Despite these headwinds, industry leaders and investors remain confident that cell therapies are poised to address significant unmet need in patients suffering from autoimmune disorders. However, the extent of this impact on the treatment landscape remains to be seen, as the industry rapidly approaches an inflection point.

2. Introduction
Mental health and substance use disorders affect 13% of the world’s population
(Global Burden of Disease, 2018).
Mental illness comprises two categories—those with any mental illness (AMI)
and those with serious mental illness (SMI).
AMI: mental, emotional, or behavioural health disorder.
SMI: A person with an AMI is defined as having an SMI if their disorder
substantially interferes with or limits one or more major life activities.
Examples of Mental Health Conditions:
Anxiety
Depression
Substance use disorders
Bipolar Disorder
Schizophrenia
Eating disorders
Obsessive Compulsive Disorder
Post-traumatic stress disorder

3. How common is mental illness?
Mental illness affects more females (11.9%) than males (9.3%).
Anxiety affects 284 million people in the world. Source
Depression affects 264 million people. Source
The mortality rate of those with mental disorders is significantly higher than the
general population, with a median life expectancy loss of 10.1 years. (JAMA
Psychiatry, 2015)
It is estimated mental disorders are attributable to 14.3% of deaths worldwide, or
approximately 8 million deaths each year. (JAMA Psychiatry, 2015)

8. Some Ideas for Discussion
Rationale: Constant exposure to negative news, comments and online content is
getting us down.
Health services aren’t keeping pace.
Moodrise: designed to brighten one’s day. Choose the mood. The app feeds
mental health expert approved photos, videos and other online content to improve
“your experience on planet Earth ”. Video.
Campaign Against Living Miserably (CALM). Large, interactive digital displays
that resemble smartphones.
The screens’ purpose is to show how frequent the CALM helpline receives calls.
It is a type of bold awareness campaign.

10. Spill App
APP OFFERS FREE MENTAL HEALTH COUNSELLING ANYWHERE,
ANYTIME
How was it born?
Frustrations with existing barriers to both public- and private-sector options for
mental wellness.
Like: Months’ long NHS waiting list to see a counsellor, or paying upwards of
EURO 70 per session in order to see a private therapist.
Users can connect with BACP (British Association for Counselling and
Psychotherapy) registered or equivalent counsellors and psychotherapists using
anonymous written therapeutic communication – thereby offering private, discreet,
convenient, accessible and flexible well-being support for individuals.
The company works with employers, workplaces or universities to make its app
available to employees, individuals and students for free and as a workplace or
student benefit.
More of a consumer app than medical one to reduce stigma.
“Our aim is to make ‘Spilling’ about your feelings a commonplace habit, regardless
of whether people are doing it to approach challenges at work, overcome a life
problem, navigate the in’s and out’s of a relationship, or just become a better and
more self-aware human overall,” added co-founder Gavin Dhesi.
