The Latest in Health Care Technology

Article by Ashley Aikers

Medical science continues to grow and change along with advancements in technology. What once seemed like science fiction is now reality, and more improvements are on the way. Seeing how far the medical field has progressed gives scientists and researchers even more motivation to push the limits and discover new breakthroughs. Here are a few of the latest advancements in medical technology that are changing the way patients receive healthcare.

Replacing Bandages with Gel

Even with the best wound care, the body takes time to heal cuts and lacerations. The use of antibacterial gels and bandages has been used by doctors and mothers for years. That may all change with Nexagon gel. Nexagon is a DNA-based formula that can decrease healing time significant, in some cases healing a wound five times faster than normal wound care procedures. When there is a cut in the skin, the cells surrounding the cut begin to react to heal the area. Unfortunately, the body also produces a protein that can inhibit the healing process. Nexagon helps to shut off these proteins, speeding the healing time considerably.

Electronic Eyeglasses Make Life Easier

As we age, our senses age with us. For most, this begins to become more obvious when eyesight fades and glasses are needed see properly. Bifocals are worn for those that have issues changing focus between long distances and close up reading. Two types of lenses are fused together to help with the transition between distances, leaving a distinctive line between the two lenses. PixelOptic has a solution for faster, smoother transitions. Using a thin layer of liquid crystal that responds to electric currents, wearers can press a button on the side of the glasses to change the focus as needed. The glasses also recognize the movement of the head and change as the wearer looks up and down.

Robotic Surgeries Without Doctors

Any surgery presents risks for infection. Even operating suites with the most aseptic techniques introduce this potentia! l of inf ection by using human doctors and nurses. Operating using robotic arms has become a popular trend, allowing the physician to sit in another room, manipulating the robot remotely, and completing the surgery. This already cuts down on the risk for infection, but what if the doctor wasn't necessary? Using robotic surgeons armed with ultrasound technology, it may soon be a reality. The robot would be able to perform the surgery alone, completely eliminating the possibility for infection from inside the operating room.

Whether the technology is currently in place or just in the beginning stages of development, there is no doubt that medical procedures have come a long way. With less invasive surgeries, new methods of treatments, and a better understanding of how the body works, medical technology has a broad new horizon.

It should come as no surprise that people in developing countries consume fewer calories than the developed countries of the world. Also unsurprisingly, the income level of inhabitants of developing countries is far lower than in the developed world. However, the disparity of the percent of household income spent on food may surprise you. Food Service Warehouse , a restaurant equipment and supplies web store, put together an interactive display that explores global food consumption and income spent on food. Click below to check it out: After working on a more light-hearted graphic about the world of competitive eating , Food Service Warehouse (FSW) took interest in the average caloric consumption around the world. While no countries are consuming anywhere near the estimated 20,000+ calories that Joey Chestnut ate in a hot dog eating contest, many of the high-consumption countries are well above the average recommended daily amount (according to the FAO, roughly 2,400 calories per d...

Today, people are continually bombarded by harmful positive ions, whether they realize it or not.These positive ions are generated by several factors, such as, the vast increase of electrical appliances within our homes, high tension power lines and subterranean sources of harmful telluric waves.
