  1. 3 WAYS Big Data and IoT Can Improve Our Health

    How health related data collected using wearable and IoT devices can improve medical decision making process and prevent certain diseases from occurring. Intersection of technology, business, and innovation
  2. A few years ago people rarely knew about the terms

    Internet of Things (IoT) and Big Data Disruptive technologies like IoT and Big Data have drastically changed how we analyse and plan businesses Most organizations making use of IoT are 1.  Manufacturing and production units Energy sectors 2.  Mobility and transportation businesses 3.  Home automation ... to name a few of them
  3. WHAT IS IoT? Broadly understood as a technology process through

    which the operational aspects of the physical world can be integrated with digital platforms and which can enable information to move in a seamless manner towards computational resources that can make sense of it
  4. 3 WAYS Are as follows 1. Preventing illness rather than

    curing it 2. Wearable Devices 3. Telemedicine and digital GP appointments
  5. Preventing Illness Rather Than Curing It 01 Accessing and analysing

    large sets of health related data can improve decision making process It can effectively regulate how medication should be administered to patients Anticipate and detect illnesses well in time before they actually start infecting or affecting patients BIG DATA CAN BE USED TO 1.  Predict epidemics 2.  Cure disease 3.  Improve the quality of life 4.  Avoid preventable deaths
  6. Wearable Devices 02 For many years app manufacturers have tried

    to cash in the health market Health apps typically focus upon trivial health and fitness aspects Need of wearable tech devices in the market for the health-conscious individuals IoT devices can record findings and inform the doctor about the patient's health 01 02 03 04 Collection and collation of specialized data generated by wearable devices aids a doctor in assessing the results of treatment prescribed to the patient. Backed by the data collected from other patients having the same condition, genetic factors and lifestyle, doctors can now make informed decisions.
  7. Telemedicine and Digital GP Appointments 03 Telemedicine is a recent
