Medical Field that applies Technology

The Lifestyles of people have changed together with the development of technology in the world. The impact of technology on Myanmar starts from buying and using phones easy. It was not easy to use phones before. If we have money to buy phones, we have to go to communication office, to prepare documents to get own name, to queue up for charging bill when we get a phone. If we say that it was like a dream. Today, we do not need to take pains to use a phone and to communicate with the world. We can buy a phone with a small amount easily.

People in any rank can use phones and this causes technology to touch with Myanmar quickly. If we desire, we can know as a place what is happening in everywhere in the world. Technology makes all job fields to perform easily and quickly and reduces the loads of people with believing. We all accept that we have support and convenience of applying technology. Health Care Service is one of this.
Change

The use of internet has improved obviously after using phones by many people in Myanmar. Especially, many people use Facebook, social network. Together with the most use of Facebook, online shopping is a business that many people are interested. There are many strengths of online shoppings. It always has a contact with the buyer. It has a little costly as place to shop is not needed. It can know the interests of buyers and up to date things immediately. Therefore, we can have effectiveness, such as a little cost, tireless and without wasting time. This is an example of changing of doing business of people because of the development of technology.

In the Health Field…..

Technology has much changed in the health care field. Medical professionals and patients can find the usefulness of technology such as care of patients and, things and tools of the operating room. The applications of health field are that when we make medical care after 21 centuries, we have a question What are carried out by the doctors. The duties and responsibilities of human doctors, such as surgeries, experiments can be performed by assistant robot doctors it is expected that human doctors may direct assistants from online. At present, if we see through a telescope as we have a stomach disease, we can know where the sore is by taking medicine without pain. Technology makes the pain of people to be relieved. Intelligent robots come out that give a support when we make surgeries.

Robots used Narno technique comes out. If we say robots, you may think big robots. They are small robots. There are many Narno robots such as Narno robot that makes surgery, Narno robot that make experiment and Narno robot that care cancer disease. They inform the doctor what is happening in the body and if  needed, they will take photo/video. Doctor sees and give needed medical care and some robots will not wait the direction of doctor as the program is inserted in them how to do. It has taken action as needed. This is a progress of Artificial Intelligence.

Another one is Drone. Drones are useful a lot in the health care field. The use of Drones can be found in various fields. It has strengths as Drones can send medicines, vaccines and medical things quickly in emergency cases. After the Haiti earthquake in 2012, needed emergence support things can be sent by Drones successfully. Drones are the answers for sending health emergency things to regions that the transportation is not good by applying Drones technologies in a short time. It is a happy thing if vaccines, medicines for saving life can be sent to to regions in Myanmar that the transportation is not good by Drones.

What is the current situation of Myanmar………?

Do you want to know about hospitals/clinics? Do you want to know what doctor sits onwhere and when? You can inquiry by phoning a call center or Facebook and mobile applications. It is not convenient to discuss with the doctor in person? The answer of this question is online. If you want to find subject matters you want to know about health, to discuss with doctor about your health, generally you can find the information that you should know about health and take or avoid an online.

If you are not convenient to go to hospital/clinic, medical care services are ready to make medical care at your home. I will describe as I know how technology is being applied in health care services of Myanmar and what technology are being applied. What technologies are being applied in a hospital? Many tools and machines that applies technology for hospital/clinic emerged and a technique that makes the procedure of writing/register patients to be convenient and medical care to be better.

Firstly, software that keeps information about the patient have to be applied. If a patient arrives at the hospital, the first thing is to register. We had to keep documents before. Documents are used in government hospitals till now. The computer system is used at international. Internet and Intranet support for sending information quickly and easily. The electronic recording system is an answer for health professionals to know or send the record of disease of patients to other doctors without delay. If we see a doctor for disease, we will get record of disease and medical record book. Next time, if we see another doctor for another disease, we will get another book. Next time… next time… it will be difficult to keep all medical records as documents. If we register medical record of patients by using computer software, the doctor can avoid wrong medical care as he can review previous medical record and he can think previous disease when he finds out the answer what disease can be. As diseases can be related each other, We can make medical care more effective by reviewing the history of patient’s disease and the history of medical care. To implement this, electronic medical record system is being used at international. In this system, the history of the patient’s disease, the facts relating to the results of medical check up and record of finding disease are kept in one place online. These facts can support each patient to give right and accurate medical care system. If we keep the facts of the disease record of all patients at one place, medical professionals can study the medical record of patients and condition of disease, new medical curesystems that are more effective and have less side effects, can emerge. Medical professionals can share knowledge each other other patients who have similar diseases should be cured by what system after studying medical cure record of the patient. At is a system that is effective and convenient not only for patients and medical professionals, butalso hospital/clinic, the electronic record system will begin to be used in Myanmar soon. Another one in health care procedure among many technology penetrations is direct discussion with doctor form online. We find that health professionals begin to communicate by using applications, Facebook and video files to improve the relationship with patients. In Myanmar, many health pages will be found on social network Facebook that many people use and health knowledge is uploaded every day. Some answer the questions about disease form online.The strength is that patients can inquiry anytime when they have a disease or they want to know in an emergency, and so it supports a lot. Another one is that they can ask freely without obstacle on online discussion though they do not want to face with the doctor.

Mobile applications are important to improve the relationship between patients and health professionals. Health conditions and facts can be recorded by using mobile applications. This record may be a need to deduce a disease. Mobile applications can support not to forget to take the medicine and to check up for health. We can record our health by bringing it as it can be connected with computer, mobile, smart watch. For a person who takes exercise, it can alarm how many kilometers he walked in today, how many heart beats, how many calories are burnt and so on. We can note about diseases, how to live for not having the disease and any suggestions in mobile applications. As articles can be read, it is effective, for people who want to get knowledge about health. Articles about health can be read and also we can make direct discussion with the doctor. There are many tools applied for health that are connected with mobile application by using Bluetooth. For example, measuring heart beat, measuring blood pressure and there are smart inhaler for people having asthma disease and can inform when the need to use smart inhaler from mobile application.The mobile application can help not to happen diseases again by checking up our health, to control disease not to be worse, to remind by self. In addition, even we can ask for the direction of doctor by sending our record of disease and record of medical use in doctor form mobile applications.

Another one is that we can discuss with the doctor directly by telephone. This is a system that is started in Myanmar. For example call center: we can ask the addresses of hospitals by telephoning. We can ask a doctor about medicine and disease. The main is that it is very convenient for doctors and people who live in away regions. Another way that is included in the communication system by phone is video chatting. If an important patient is going to be done operationallythe doctor or foreign doctors in other hospitals give advice and direct by watching the operation directly. This can be done in Myanmar. This means that an inexperienced health professional cure by taking the advice of a doctor. It is an effective way for both as it is effective, for patients and medical professional can get new experience.

If mobile systems and online systems are used, payment form online will be also included. If we discuss with doctor from online, we will make online payment. This part is not difficult as there are mobile payment systems in Myanmar.

Getting information easily is the strength of today’s technology. Medical professionals have many effectiveness in medical care as they can discuss by connecting with medical professionals from foreign countries and they can attend the school on online. It is a good opportunity to increase medical knowledge as new diseases, medicines, cure systems can be studied continuously.

The impact of technology in the health field is leading to effectiveness. We have to watch on what will change today and tomorrow as creations and ideas emerge every day. The main is that we accept the use of technology to apply for benefits. I suggest that it is needed to apply as technology is in our hands.

The life of people will long next years than now because of the support of technology. At present, bad organs in the body are changed, substituted and machines are inserted in them. We will have to choose a robot hand or new hand by genealogy for a patient who wants to institute hand. What will we do after ten years? Will people be human robots that are set with machines? Let’s watch on…
