How is Rising Use of AI and IoT Improving the Healthcare Sector

In recent years, the use of Artificial Intelligence and Internet of Things in healthcare industry has increasingly attracted great attention. This is because these technologies are able to detect the potential risks and inefficiencies of current healthcare practices, which can lead to new business models as well as improved patient care.

In this article, we will explore different AI applications and their core components. With a detailed introduction on what each application does for us and its benefits for healthcare industry. 

Artificial Intelligence and Healthcare

Cancer diagnosis is one of the applications which can benefit greatly from AI and IoT. First, AI allows doctors to get a biological sample from a patient and run it through prediction algorithms to make a "virtual biopsy" of that patient's cancer. These algorithms then create images that show the doctor how far the cancer has spread. With AI's powerful analysis in healthcare, it can help doctors make more accurate risk-assessment and detect tumors earlier before they cause too much damage. In addition, AI can be used to measure and analyse patients' vital signs such as heart rate, temperature, blood pressure etc. These technological applications can also be used to help people with disabilities. AI can also help to access the data that is generated by IoT devices in order to provide better healthcare services for patients.

With the help of convolutional neural network (CNN), computers are able to recognize faces as an example of image recognition. With other application of CNN such as in speech recognition and natural language processing, computers are taught how to learn from their mistakes without needing programmers to specifically program each individual task. Those two examples above are one of the most common types of deep learning that is used in AI algorithms today.

Rising use of devices for storage and interpretation of healthcare data is giving rise to exponential usage scope for AI and with advancing algorithms making human-machine interactions more safe and efficient. So AI and IoT are going to change the landscape of healthcare industry in the next few years.

What are the Benefits of Zydus Cadila's Newly Approved ZyCov-D Vaccine

Zycov-D is developed by Zydus Cadila and it has been approved for emergency use for Covid-19 in India.   India has already approved 5 vaccines and now ZyCov-D is also approved for emergency use in India. ZyCov-D has been tested and can be given to children and adults 12 years and above. Zydus Cadila has approved Zycov-D vaccine for Phase III clinical trials under the Department of Biotebiotechnology by the Drug Controller General of India (DCGI) in Zydus Cadila. Cadila Healthcare will begin the Phase II trials of the vaccine candidate on August 6, 2021, as part of an adaptive multicentre dose increase in phase I / II using randomized, placebo-controlled methods. The company also confirmed that a second candidate vaccine, ZycoV-MV, targeting COVID-19, has completed pragmatic clinical trials in non-human primate immunogenicity studies and will be presented shortly.  Key Pointers about ZyCov-D Vaccine: ZyCov-D is the world’s first Plasmid DNA Vaccine for Covid-19 ZyCov-D Vaccine ...
