Medical Technology
[edit]Education (New):

Companies such as Surgical Theater provides new technology capable of capturing 3D virtual images of patents' brains to use as practice for operations.3D printing allows medical companies to produce prototypes to practice on before an operation created with artificial tissue. [1]
Virtual realities provides doctors multiple surgical scenarios that could happen and allows them to practice and prepare themselves for these situations. Virtual reality also permits medical students a hands on experience of different procedures without the consequences of making a potential mistakes. [2]
Privacy of Health Data (New):
[edit]Phones can track your whereabouts, steps and more so by wearing a medical device it has the same effect as carrying your phone or it can be your phone that is the medical device. In the research article, Privacy Attitudes among Early Adopters of Emerging Health Technologies by Cynthia Cheung, Matthew Bietz, Kevin Patrick and Cinnamon Bloss discovered people were fine with sharing personal data for scientific advancements although they still expressed uncertainty about who would have access to their data. People are naturally cautious about giving out sensitive personal information. [3]
In 2015 the Medical Access and CHIP Reauthorization Act (MACRA) was passed which will be put into play in 2018 pushing towards electronic health records. Health Information Technology: Integration, Patient Empowerment, and Security by K. Marvin provided multiple different polls based on people’s views on different types of technology entering the medical field most answers where responded with somewhat likely and very few completely disagreed on technology being used in medicine. Marvin discusses the maintenance required to protect medical data and technology against cyber attacks as well as providing a proper data backup system for the information.[4]
Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (ACA) also known as Obamacare and health information technology health care is entering the digital era. Although with this development it needs to be protected. Both health information and financial information now made digital within the health industry might become a larger target for cybercrime. Even with multiple different types of safeguards hackers some how still find their way in so the security that is in place needs to constantly be updated to prevent these breaches. [5]
Technology Testing (New):
[edit]All medical equipment introduced commercially must meet both United States and international regulations.The devices are tested on their material, effects on the human body, all components including devices that have other devices included with them, and the mechanical aspects.[6]
Medical device user fee and modernization act of 2002 was created to make the FDA hurry up on their approval process of medical technology. By introducing sponsor user fees for a faster review time with predecided performance target for review time. [7]
Types of Technology (New):
[edit]Medical technology has evolved into smaller portable devices for instance smartphones, touchscreens, tablets, laptops, digital ink, voice and face recognition and more. With this technology innovations like electronic health records (EUR), health information exchange (HIE), Nationwide Health Information Network (NwHIN), personal Health Records (PHRs), patient portals, Nanomedicine, genome-based personalized medicine, Geographical Positioning System (GPS), Radio Frequency Identification (RFID), Telemedicine, clinical decision support (CDS), mobile home health care and cloud computing came to exist. [8]
3D printing allows you to produce specialized splints, prostheses, parts for medical devices and inert implants. The end goal of 3D printing is being able to print out customized replaceable body parts. [1]
Companies (Existing):
[edit]1. uMoove: Provides users the ability to use facial movements to analyze attention and level of interest. Yitzi Kempinski, the founder, plans on expanding the uses of their service to also diagnose neurological diseases that can be identified with eye movement. [9]
2. Surigical Theater: Two former air force R&D officers teamed up with a neurosurgeon to create a surgical rehearsal platform, SRP, to create 3D images of a patient’s brain to practice operations on. [9]
3. iCouch: Connects patients with mental health professionals over a video call. This service is completely digital from making appointments to payments. [9]
4. HelpAround: Connects diabetic patients with resources around them if they forget, loss or run out of glucose. By telling the user areas that might be able to supply the user with the supplies they need, blood tests or injections. Although this software also provides the user the ability to discuss issues or ask for advice from other diabetic patients. [9]
