Development Trends in Chronic Disease Treatments
Development Trends in Chronic Disease Treatments

Modern healthcare services are focusing more effort on disease prevention and early treatment. The goal of many services is to improve physical and mental health and educate patients as well as family members to improve their awareness of disease prevention methods. New Internet-based technologies allow modern healthcare services to focus more on preventive measures to minimize disease onset. The current trends of modern healthcare services include:

· Digital check-ups, with big data analysis integrated into the diagnosis and treatment process

· Health status tracking over apps on smart terminals with IoT-enabled sensory equipment

· Remote diagnosis and treatment with Internet- and cloud-based services

Business Challenges

  • Age-related Diseases

    People are living longer than ever before, thanks to modern medical technologies, but longer life spans do not necessarily equate to better health. Age-related diseases, such as dementia, heart disease, cancer, and diabetes, will impose high welfare costs and heavy social burden.

  • Personalized Treatment

    Personalized treatment is a popular trend nowadays. Studies show that many people will need personalized treatment for their individual conditions, because they have a higher risk of suffering from certain diseases or having allergic reactions to certain medications.

  • Obesity

    Obesity is a threat to public health around the world because it increases the risk of other diseases. Studies show that obesity treatment should take into account social psychological factors and gene functions to truly combat the new epidemic with effectiveness.

  • Resistance to Antibiotics

    Resistance to antibiotics is the greatest threat to public health around the world. Multidrug resistant bacteria will continue to spread throughout the world. Medical service providers must find a smart approach to reduce antibiotic use globally.

Typical Scenarios

  • Chronic Disease Care

  • Regional Health Management

  • Healthcare Information Analysis

  • Self-service Medicine

  • In-home Healthcare

Chronic Disease Care
