Adopting Artificial Intelligence for Remote Patient Monitoring and Digital Health Care

Abstract

The COVID-19 pandemic has created a new culture in the working style in all fields across the globe. While trauma is continuing to rise in many parts of the world, some countries are now working to sustain the stress and are recreating their health and economies. In a few developing countries, there is a shortage of doctors, and treatment is not being provided to all patients due to the lack of time that doctors can spend with patients. In such a situation, getting appointments and treatment is always a challenge for patients and elderly people who cannot resist longer waiting times. Another rising problem is the restriction on visiting the hospitals during the pandemic spread time, except in emergencies. To overcome this problem, we are proposing a Remote Health Monitoring Application for patients, which helps all categories of people consult the doctor over the telephone, explain their symptoms, and get their required treatment. In this chapter, we will discuss a Health Monitoring Application that employs Artificial Intelligence, which enables the patient to consult the doctor remotely and get treatment through digital mode.
