How smart technology helps in healthcare

[snoop1130]

 

Science and technology make life easier, safer and more comfortable for us all. In the medical and healthcare fields, advances in science and medical technology have generated vaccines to tackle some of the world’s most devasting diseases including Covid-19, improved the accuracy of diagnosis, made treatment more effective and upped the overall quality of patient care.

 

Smart technologies, in particular, can help enhance the quality of people’s lives so that they become less reliant on human staff while simultaneously promoting independence. The AI-driven chatbot ‘Psyjai’ and assistive robot ‘Dinsaw Mini’ are just two of the examples of how AI, machine learning, the Internet and smartphones help people maintain their health, improve the quality of patient care, and create a healthier world.

 

Psyjai – a new and innovative way of boosting mental health and wellbeing

 

Created by Mahidol University’s Thailand Mental Health Technology and Innovation Center, Psyjai (pronounced as ‘sai jai’) is a mental health chatbot service through the Line app that helps people manage their mental health in order to make them feel their best. The bot is powered by AI, a technology that mimics human intelligence to perform tasks, allowing it to act as a therapist to help support mental health and well-being.

An AI therapist / shrink?

Wow, never heard of that concept before.

Maybe they should get some of these in the corrections service eh!

 

Traditional long established medical interventions didn't appear to help much with Thaksin's prison stay so maybe some fluffy AI bot to whisper him sweet nothings might have made him feel better

 

You can get a simple ecg in prison you can do a simple blood test to rule out many things in prison, you can give a simple sleeping pill for somebody with insomnia, antidepressants for mental health and other simple medication to lower blood pressure

 

What you don't normally need to do is get a helicopter to fly you to a luxury hospital wing at 3 in the morning for any of this

 

In summary simple paramedicine primary and emergency care and routine medical interventions don't appear to work for some in Thailand so maybe the AI bot would but you know what I really don't think many are that gullible...
