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.

Health Education on prevention of hypertensionRadhika kulvi
Hypertension is a chronic condition of concern due to its role in the causation of coronary heart diseases. Hypertension is a worldwide epidemic and important risk factor for coronary artery disease, stroke and renal diseases. Blood pressure is the force exerted by the blood against the walls of the blood vessels and is sufficient to maintain tissue perfusion during activity and rest. Hypertension is sustained elevation of BP. In adults, HTN exists when systolic blood pressure is equal to or greater than 140mmHg or diastolic BP is equal to or greater than 90mmHg. The

The rising incidence of lifestyle diseases such as diabetes, cardiovascular diseases, and cancer is a major trend driving the clinical trials market in India. These conditions necessitate the development and testing of new treatment methods, creating a robust demand for clinical trials. The increasing burden of these diseases highlights the need for innovative therapies and underscores the importance of India as a key player in global clinical research.
2. Why do more than 70 million people in the
United States spend billions of dollars a year
on a habit that is a known health hazard?
Is it the invitation from television
commercials and printed cigarette
advertising?
Is it the influence of parents who smoke?
Why do people smoke?
3. However, surveys among high school
students who are smoking indicate
that the most frequent reason is;
4. " My friends smoke and that’s the
habit, it is hard to quit ".
5. Some heed the warnings they
see on television and read in
newspapers and other
publications.

Who smokes Cigarettes?
8. Cigarette smoking is a widespread habit, although men
tend to smoke more as a group than women. An
encouraging sign is the increasing number of former
smokers.
9. The best argument the smoker gives is, “ I
enjoy it “.
Most of the other arguments are only excuses.
11. Tobacco is made from the leaf of a plant widely
cultivated in the United States as well as in other
parts of the world.
Tobacco is really big business.
The Properties of Tobacco
12. The most harmful ingredient in tobacco is Nicotine,
a powerful poison when taken internally.
13. Nicotine is known to raise the smoker's blood
pressure, speed up the pulse, and stimulate the flow
of saliva.
What is Nicotine?
14. Another injurious substance in tobacco is Tar.
Tars have been demonstrated to cause cancer
when applied to the skin of rats and may be an
agent in human cancer of the lungs, throat, tongue,
and lips.
15. Since our forefathers procured tobacco from the
American Indians, there have been arguments
concerning its effect on health.
They have analyzed cigarette smoke; they have
studied the health and health habits of smokers
and non-smokers; they have experimented with
humans as well as many types of animals.
The real case against Tobacco
16. In 1962, a special advisory committee of
scientist in the United States was appointed
by the Surgeon General of the Public Health
Service to study the effect of tobacco on
health.
Among the committee of ten, chosen from a
list of 150 scientists, there were five smokers
and five non-smokers.
17. On January 11, 1964, the report of the Surgeon
General's advisory committee on smoking was
released.
Here are some of the significant findings of the
committee.
n
Report of the advisory committee on
smoking
18. 1. Cigarette smoking is by far the most
important cause of lung cancer in men.
Although the evidence is not as conclusive, it
probably is also related to lung cancer in
women.
2. Cigarette smoking is a significant factor in
cancer of the larynx in men.
19. 3. Cigarette smoking is the most important
cause of chronic bronchitis in the United
States and increases the risk of dying of
pulmonary emphysema.
4. Male cigarette smokers have a higher death
rate from coronary artery disease than
nonsmoking males.
20. The report of the committee caused-
people to look at the facts.
One of the most immediate and far
reaching by products of the " Smoking
and Health Report " has been the impetus
given to research concerning smoking.
Reaction to the report
21. Most smokers want a cigar or a cigarette
after a meal more than at any other time.
Nicotine slows the digestive progress by as
much as an hour. While digestion is delayed,
acidity in the stomach may increase to the
point of causing heartburn. They heavy
cigarette smokers have a frequency of peptic
ulcer twice that of those who have never
smoked. Doctors usually advise patients with
ulcers to give up smoking.
Smoking and Digestion
22. Does tobacco damage the Heart?
According to the National Cancer Institute,
the death rate from coronary heart disease
among males between the ages of 45-64 is
more than twice as high in cigarette smokers
than nonsmokers. The ratio among women is
only slightly lower.
Smoking and the Circulatory System
23. Nicotine in tobacco is absorbed into
the blood in the lungs. It causes the
blood vessels to be come smaller, thus
raising the blood pressure. Increased
blood pressure increases the work of
the heart by as much as 28 beats per
minute.
24. Some investigators feel that the carbon
monoxide formed during burning of tobacco
and cigarette paper may be more harmful
than nicotine. This poisonous gas combines
with the hemoglobin in red blood corpuscles
much more readily than does oxygen. A
compound called carboxyhemoglobin is
formed.
25. Carboxyhemoglobin has been found in
concentrations up to 20 percent in the blood of
heavy smokers. The resulting reduction in oxygen
supply to the tissues may damage the heart muscle,
blood vessels, and other organs.
One of the most serious circulatory complications
related to smoking is a condition known as
Buerger's Disease.
26. Buerger's Disease is more prevalent in males
than in females and appears most often
between the ages of 20 and 45.
27. When a person smokes, the nose, throat,
trachea, bronchi, and lungs are subjected
to the effects of the smoke as well as
nicotine.
Throat Irritation is probably the most
common complaint of smokers.
Hairlike cilia projecting from these
membranes normally fan toward the
throat and move dust particles and other
foreign substances out of the air passages.
Smoking and the Respiratory System
28. Irritation and swelling of mucous
membranes reduces the diameter of air
passages and lowers the flow of air
through them.
29. Lung cancer, Chronic Bronchitis,
Emphysema, and Cancer of the Throat
and Larynx are all related to cigarette
smoking, according to evidence in the
Surgeon General's report.
These figures become even more alarming
when you consider that most cases of lung
cancer in nonsmokers are due to
spreading of the cancer to the lungs from
some other location in the body.
Respiratory Diseases and Smoking
30. The death rate from chronic bronchitis and
emphysema is six times higher in smokers
than in non-smokers.
