FUTURE CARE
Sensors, Artificial Intelligence, and the Reinvention of Medicine
A brief examination of how new and advanced technologies can change the world of medicine for the better.
Future care is virtual care: sensor-aided, digitally enabled, and powered by predictive analytics. Like most facets of modern life, human organs, too, are being digitally monitored. Sensors are well on their way to helping us proactively capture the information needed to predict and prevent disease. Paired with the medical world's growing emphasis on wellness and prevention, the digital revolution will help us effectively monitor and address the chronic diseases that have been the Achilles' heel of the health care system to date. This large-scale transition is not only going to reshape the patient-physician relationship but also dramatically change how hospitals and the business of medicine operate.
Dr. Singh explores the upswell of virtual care, the evolving role of sensors, and the impact of artificial intelligence in medicine and health care through cutting-edge science, big idea projections, and patient stories. Using anecdotes from his own COVID-19 illness and medical practice, Dr. Singh shows that the success of the digital revolution in medicine is dependent on our ability to understand and adapt to this changing landscape.
Future Care provides fascinating insights into how health care can become sensible, affordable, and practical and why everyone needs to become a part of the solution. It is an important and timely contribution to the ongoing and increasingly urgent conversation about medicine, technology, and health care.
Jag Singh, M.D., is a practicing cardiologist at Massachusetts General Hospital in Boston and a professor of Medicine at Harvard Medical School. He has lived and studied in Pune and Mumbai (India), Oxford (UK), and Boston (USA). As a clinician-scientist, his research work has focused on innovative device therapies, sensors, AI, and virtual care. He has served in many leadership roles within medicine and on multiple scientific advisory boards for device and digital companies.
