ROBOT IN HEALTHCARE
INTRODUCTION
Our today's world become more and more technical and easy to use appliances. In this period, many sectors have been grown and growing drastically. Like IT, Digital Marketing, robotics, gaming industry etc., In these above mentioned fields, we are going to see further about robotics and automation in healthcare.
- Robotics - As everyone know, this is a branch of engineering and computer science. Its main aspect is that will assist humans in many fields.
- Automation - Automation is a techniques or ways to make system to work automatically.
So now we get an idea about this topic, this robotics and automation technologies are used in manufacturing, transport and also in healthcare.
USES OF ROBOTICS AND AUTOMATION
- Storage - This refers to maintaining the records of patients. Mainly in hospitals, maintaining patient records is difficult also it needs many workers. But after implementing this robotics technology, it has been easy to maintain those records and that's how it automatically reduces manpower.
- Payments - These technologies has helped also in billing, printing receipts, reports etc., After applying these techniques wrong summation of bill amounts have definitely get reduced. This may helps in reputation of the hospital.
- Transplant - Using this robotics in many hospitals it becomes efficient to track the damaged organs in our body easily, this could be easy to transplant that particular part.
- Analytics - Are you excited? How analytics becomes a part in healthcare? Let's see! As we know, hospital collects more detail of patients which will be analyzed for future purposes. Especially, to analyze the number of patients affected at that particular disease and calculating the affected range could also be done successfully.
- Off-care - This expresses taking care of patients who got treated and discharged (i.e.) For cancer patients the process gets completed and discharged . But after discharge too, some needs care like confirming their monthly checkups. These could be greatly achieved with these technology.
- Check ins & outs - In today's world, in every office/companies uses this check-in system. As we know, these robotics and automation techniques are used here to store data.
- Communication - This technique in healthcare, can helps in emergency times. Hospital in-lines are used for fast and effective way to deliver the information that helps to proceed the treatments further.
- Verification - In this, it becomes easier to verify the patients details for insurance verification. With these robotics and automation, we can resist repetition of data and false information.
DISADVANTAGES
- As everything has its negates, this future technology also has some like
- Unemployment - Robotics in every field, helping the owners whereas other side, it gives great impact in unemployment by using less manpower.
- Data threat - The patients data can be theft, which leads to great damage and could affect the reputation of the hospital.
- Dislocate - Any unexpected faults inside the robots may results in severe losses.
FUTURE ASPECTS
- In future, it is expected that robots will be invented efficiently that they can even perform surgeries to patients.
- In future, robots will follow the medication / procedures prescribed by doctors.
- The robots will discuss the symptoms with patients.
DO YOU KNOW ?
- Some robots are designed to provide emotional support to patients, especially in long-term care settings. They can engage in conversations, play music or remind patients to take medication.
- The researchers are developing swallowable robots that can deliver medication or perform procedures inside the human body. These tiny robots could helps in drug revolutionize drug delivery and diagnostics.
CONCLUSION
At last, we are concluding that robotics could be used only in certain situations may not affect these technology and could overcome its negative impact. As in technical future world, robotics could become more and more efficient when its used only at the right place / situations.
