Answer by Nitin Suri:
Future healthcare solutions "exciting potential" would depend on where in the world you are- for instance , being able to provide timely , cheap and effective healthcare would be a plus in developing countries or being able to address ailments which affect many people. End to end patient healthcare with remote delivery of medical advise, diagnosis for rural/areas of poor infrastructure may be done as a result of this.
In developed parts of the world, being able to self monitor and react appropriately via medicines may be key.
This remote/self monitoring is a common thread and would be customised for both developing and developed worlds. Let's explore this further .
Self monitoring might be done via probes, filling out data on phones, Or medical devises which can monitor patients' vital signs and raise alarms to patients,doctors and carers . If you are in the developed world- depending on the severity of the situation – medical despatch units may be sent , prescriptions may be ordered or medicine dosage may be modified. In the developing world, information to manage this may be sent.
