BMC Digital Health is presenting our Collection, How robotics is transforming healthcare.
In an era where robotics is increasingly being used in healthcare, understanding the impact of these technologies is crucial for shaping the future of patient care. From enhancing surgical precision and enabling remote patient monitoring to leveraging artificial intelligence for more accurate diagnostics, these innovations have improved treatment outcomes and expanded access to healthcare. Continued exploration of this field holds the promise of further breakthroughs, including the development of smarter, more intuitive robotic systems, personalized treatment plans, and novel novel interventions along the continuum of care. By deepening our collective understanding of how robotics transforms healthcare, we not only pave the way for more efficient and effective healthcare delivery but also open avenues for addressing current and future health challenges.
The collection covers a wide range of topics relating to the impact of robotics on healthcare, including but not limited to:
- Medical robotics in precision surgery
- Telemedicine and robotics for remote patient monitoring
- Robotic diagnostics and advancements in medical imaging
- Rehabilitation robotics for enhanced therapy
- Social robots in elderly care and innovations in patient support
- Ethical considerations in healthcare robotics
- Prosthetics and other assistive technologies in advancing patient mobility
This collection supports and amplifies research related to SDG 3: Good Health and Well-Being.
